This work-in-progress paper explores student reflections from a multidisciplinary, cohort-based, first-year engineering seminar designed for a cohort of students participating in a scholarship program. This paper offers a brief overview of the Scholarship program, which is designed to support low-income, academically talented engineering students. We offer a description of the scholarship section of the FYE seminar and offer preliminary themes from an analysis of Scholars’ responses to an end-of-class written reflection to address our research question: What is the experience of first-year, low-income, academically talented students in a cohort-based, multidisciplinary first-year engineering seminar? Through our analysis, we aim to cultivate an initial understanding of the Scholars' experience engaging in an FYE seminar as a cohort during their first semester and identify opportunities for improving Scholarship programming.
