There isno proof that being a transfer student will put them at any statistical disadvantage in the job orinternship market as a student who finished their whole degree at one university. These issues re-veal deeper insights outside of registering for classes and choosing a major. They reflect a lack offlexibility and support for non-traditional students who juggle employment and education, as wellas misconceptions that can negatively influence students’ perceptions and decisions.5 Conclusion and future workRising costs at 4-year universities are bringing a shift in acquiring a bachelor’s degree by attendinga

This was reflected inthe open-response questions, where participants frequently cited these areas as problems orpoints of stress in their relationships with their advisor(s). Items that received higher averagescores focused on research skill building, resource acquisition, feedback, and trust. These areastend towards some of the more technical aspects of mentoring that advising requires, whichengineering doctoral advisors may feel more comfortable with.

Initially, the project took a deficit framing and developed the survey instrument tocontain questions related to barriers rather than student experiences. In doing this, results may beskewed more towards sharing frustrations or negatively framed experiences in replacement ofauthentic positive experiences that may not have been elicited provided the question framing.Lastly, the students were asked to reflect on experiences at the end of the course, in which theexperience reflected in a student’s response may not be representative of their authentic as timeand other experiences may have skewed memory of

Previous worksupports that at least six years of experience is necessary for expertise development. Wesubsequently define early-career as up to six years of post-baccalaureate experience and expectthat this population will not yet have expertise and therefore not use intuition. However,research has shown that early-career practitioners who graduated from a primarily undergraduateinstitution (PUI) prior to the onset of COVID-19 both claim expertise and report using intuitionin their decision-making. This unexpected result may be reflective of the PUI’s emphasis onhigh-impact

And finally, from [6] “We knowfrom research that the more students engage with other students in the class, as well as withprofessors, the more likely they are going to stay and get their baccalaureate degrees.” Boud [3]also suggests that peer learning suits some students better than learning individually, particularlywomen and students from some cultural backgrounds.The approach here is to use CATE to enhance learning in a peer-learning environment. This isintended to provide the many benefits of peer learning without an increased time commitment forthe instructor.Figure 2. A randomly generated circuit and associated step-by-step analysis.

demonstrates aprevalence of studies regarding interactions in the online context. These studies have providedimportant observations of how increased interactions relate to performance for remote and/orhybrid instruction overall [12], [13], [14]. However, we believe that this emphasis on onlineinteraction over f2f interaction may not reflect the scale of research need, but the ease of datacollection for SNA regarding online interactions. Specifically, f2f interactions are a less studied,but major component of students’ interactions.To overcome these issues, our research group, familiar with SNA from small studies, conducteda large-scale (1000+ individuals) SNA study at a large, public university in the United States[15].

Further,data was collected from first-year engineering students at the end of their first semester of collegeclasses. Therefore, the results may not reflect the students’ progress through the engineeringprogram. To address this, future directions plan to include a wider range of students from otherinstitutions and a higher proportion of students from racial and ethnic minority groups.
