The nationaldiscussion on the shortage of engineers in the market started as early as 1959, with empiricalevidence of the need for more engineers and scientists to meet the demands of the growingcountry [3]. The conversation initially focused on increasing the workforce to compete withother countries [4]. Recently, the conversation shifted toward the need for skilled engineers whobring new ideas and perspectives to the profession. Reflecting this trend, stakeholders, includingNAE [5], NSPE [6], and ASEE [7], are

One may even be able to argue that the onlineexperience had a positive impact on learners that, for one reason or another, were notcomfortable interacting in an in-person classroom. For these students, we might say that theonline experience gave them a front-row seat and perhaps allowed them to engage morecomfortably. For other students, the exact opposite might be the case.

Analysis ofdiscrepant cases that fall outside the norm is a critical strategy in qualitative research [7]–[9].The uncertainty and inconsistency involved in such outlier cases do not invalidate theparticipants’ stories but instead reflect the complexities in the phenomena under study [5], in thiscase, mentorship. Discrepant cases can provide clues to generating innovative hypotheses andunderstandings not readily apparent in more common responses [5], [8], [10], and, as such,require close examination to reveal their meaning [8].We leverage attachment theory as a psychological and developmental lens [11], [12] to guidethis study.
