Abstract

There is a robust support structure for underrepresented students at the university and college level, but what about departmental support? During this presentation, you will learn about the programming that the Agricultural & Biosystems Engineering (ABE) Student Services team has created to help support underrepresented students across four majors and two colleges. We will cover learning of the students’ needs, the initial brainstorming, defining the program’s reach, the short/long term goals, outreach to the population, programming details, and the assessment of the program’s progress. Additionally, student representatives from the group will provide personal accounts of the program’s development and impact.
