We are particularly interested in how instructors’ environments,including department culture, university policies, resources, etc., contribute to those decisions,which in turn affect students.” At the end of each interview, the interviewer asked participants ifthey had any other comments that might be useful for the project.Transcription was performed using Microsoft Word, and qualitative coding was performed

The microcosm of the college campus can be challenging for students, where some areleaving the familiarity of home and family to join spaces where they can be isolated. Prior researchsuggests that being socially connected can help to alleviate stress (Achat et al., 1998). Research alsoshows that minoritized student populations experience more barriers to persistence in STEM highereducation compared to white students and certain Asian populations due to the added stress of racismfaced by these populations (Harper, 2010; Pawley, 2019).

Eighty to 90 percent of engineeringstudents each semester indicate that at the end of project scope, once design has begun, externalconsiderations are no longer incorporated into the technical development process. In other words,students are taught to believe that once they begin the design process, they must follow aprescribed engineering route that leads to a deterministic outcome. This lack of

considering the Peer Reviews feature, one has to consider when peer review is mostcommonly used in engineering courses. Peer review, if it is employed by instructors, tends to beused in conjunction with project work, particularly design work, though it can be applied tomany other types of student work and with learning benefits [23]. Project work in the curriculumunder study tended to occur in senior-level courses. So, it is not surprising that Peer Reviewswere not used in the second- and third-year courses considered in this study, as they focused onengineering science topics with more traditional homework and exam course elements [24].When considering Rubrics and Outcomes, each of these features demands instructors have bothadvanced pedagogical
