A poster, "Obtaining Experimental Evidence Regarding the Effectiveness of Interventions Intended to Support the Success of Freshman STEM Undergraduates," presented by Public Policy doctoral student Ann Kellogg, was awarded first place among 64 posters presented at the November 6 poster session of the 2014 Association for Public Policy Analysis & Management (APPAM) Fall Research Conference in Albuquerque, New Mexico.The poster reported preliminary results of the iCubed@UMBC project, a National Science Foundation grant-funded study that is examining the relative effectiveness of four interventions designed to improve the academic success of undergraduates majoring in STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math) disciplines.In addition to Ann Kellogg, the following iCubed@UMBC project assessment team members were co-authors on the poster: Marv Mandell and Dave Marcotte (Public Policy), Lisa Dickson (Economics) and Kenneth Maton (Psychology). Dr. Philip Rous is the iCubed@UMBC project's Principal Investigator.
