Though referred toas a survey, the institutional intent was to simultaneously capture data that helped to understandthe nature of student co-curricular experiences and establish a reflection portal that enabled andencouraged students to reflect on their experiences outside the classroom [21]. Conductedannually, all engineering undergraduate students were asked to self-report and reflect on their co-curricular experiences from the prior year (i.e., students who completed the survey in fall 2020would be reporting about activities that occurred between fall 2019 and summer 2020, inclusive).The experiences included: technical work (e.g., internship), non-technical work (e.g., grocerystore clerk), undergraduate research, student clubs

We chose to evaluate this concept using the peer relationsquestions from established work regarding the welcoming nature of engineering culture and therole of peers (Davis et al. 2023). Informal group discussions within the department indicated thatstudents felt their peers facilitated more judgement and served as a greater hindrance tobelonging within the department than their
