| Abstract: | The motivational outcome of undergraduate research experiences is an increasingly common component of STEM education practices. Student benefits associated with these experiences include increased interest and retention in STEM and/or research fields. Across the country, many institutional research activities in twentythree states and Puerto Rico are supported through the National Institutes of Health's Institutional Development Award (IDeA) Networks of Biomedical Research Excellence (INBRE) Program. INBREs are statewide collaborations of research intensive and primarily undergraduate institutions that are designed to support the biomedical research pipeline as well as faculty research. Most INBREs offer summer undergraduate research experiences to meet their program goals. While the structure and focus of these programs are tailored to state-specific needs, they typically include 10-15 week sessions and many emphasize participation from underrepresented student populations. In summer 2019, eleven INBREs collaborated to explore the collective reach and impact of their summer undergraduate research programs (SURPs). A common set of survey items were identified and added to pre- and/or post-program surveys. These items focused on the reach of the programs (e.g. demographics of participating students) and the impact of the programs on educational goals for students. In total, data from 461 students across 11 states were included in the project. One third of participating students were from underrepresented racial/ethnic groups; 28% were first-generation college students and 34% were Pell grant eligible. After the program, 72% of participants reported that they hoped to earn a doctorallevel degree. Our results suggest that INBRE-supported SURPs are successfully reaching underrepresented students and that INBRE-supported students widely anticipate pursuing graduate level study in STEM fields.
