. Combined with Oregon and Idaho, the Northwest is home to approximately 170,000(6.8%) of the nation‟s federally-enrolled tribal members3.African Americans, Hispanics and Alaska Indians/American Natives (AI/AN) together onlyaccount for 11.3% of the science, engineering, technology and math (STEM) workforce4 outsideof universities, but make up 29% of the population5. From 2000-2020, the non-Hispanic laborforce will grow by 9%, while the Hispanic labor force will grow by 77%6. Tremendous disparitystill exists in the educational achievements of adults from different ethnic groups (Table 1),suggesting that the changing demographics will create a significant workforce problem in STEMfields in the future. For example, over 41% of Hispanic students never

PAESMEM scholars’ valued mentoring practices, thepresent study has generated recommendations for mentors seeking to advance their mentees’efforts in STEM fields. Mainly, mentors should attempt to establish a caring and respectfulrelationship with the mentee. Mentors should also carefully balance the level of structure presentin the relationship so as to allow the protégé to maintain independence while still encouragingtheir success. More specific suggestions will require additional research to be performed on thepractices utilized by PAESMEM recipients.Bibliography1. Mueller, S. (2004).

Given these benefits and challenges,many engineering students are still often pushed to take computer science course(s) to compensate for theirlack of in-department offerings. This research looks to help overcome several aspects of these barriers inthe discipline specific domains of architectural engineering (AE) and material science and engineering(MATSE).
