The high rate of attrition has been documented from a public policystandpoint at various universities in the United States, United Kingdom, Australia, and SouthAfrica [1]. The cost of attrition is significant. Students who attrite are personally burdened by thecost of a partial education when the costs of college are rising [2] and by the loss of income froma lucrative STEM career.

For example, students are mostmotivated to participate in learning interventions and experiences that would make them moreemployable in the future
