fatigue butprimarily because the study team felt safe assuming that most graduate students have access to acamera through their smartphone or a digital camera and therefore also have experience takingphotographs. In lieu of a formal training, participants will be provided information on the goalsof the study, data collection process, goals of photovoice research, and ethical considerations forpartaking in a photovoice study via the study informed consent form, a photovoice fact sheet,and virtual instructions.Theoretical Frameworks Used in the StudyThree theoretical frameworks are leveraged in this work. The first is Ecological Systems Theory(EST). This framework helps to situates individuals within the context of their localenvironment(s), global

that hinder or support role identitydevelopment in graduate school. In addition, this framework for engineering graduate student identity development has thepotential to increase understanding of doctoral students’ experiences, particularly those ofhistorically marginalized graduate students, and how institutions may better support the identitydevelopment of all students. Furthering understanding of identity development in graduateschool supports the development of a more representative engineering workforce throughincreased understanding of the identity experiences of engineering doctoral students. Thus, thiswork may have implications for persistence and representation in graduate school and academia.References[1] S. L. Rodriguez, C

master’sthesis students were more concentrated above the mean. As such, master’s thesis students aremore likely to associate with this factor when considering their ideal mentor. While the samplesize for the master’s student population is small, this finding still may hold true, and warrantsfurther analysis with larger samples to ensure its validity.

we share some of the quotes we heard from the students: “I am still very cognizant of my accent. I always fear that I make grammatical mistakes as I talk. Like very often I make the mistake of using a plural verb for a singular noun. It’s hard. It doesn’t come naturally to me. I know it might be a small mistake, but I have that in my mind all the time. When I talk, I constantly remind myself to check my verbs - did I use that little ‘s’ at the end of the verb or not?. I fear what if I don’t get it correct during the presentations. Are reviewers going to doubt my capabilities? I am more confident in front of my advisor or others who believe I know my work and I am good at it. But when it comes
