By working with other professionals and being treated as a peer, the RS students weregiven an opportunity to envision themselves as young professionals, hopefully motivating them tocontinue and finish their collegiate STEM educations through these contacts [21]. As rising juniors, the students were encouraged to undertake their own self-directed researchprojects under the guidance of the Principal Investigator. This pre-capstone experience wasdesigned to help them to gain marketable problem-solving skills, aiding them in securing anentry-level professional position [22], [23].

Providing students with effective individualized learningstrategies and boosting their metacognitive skills – an awareness of one’s own thought processes– has been previously identified as critical to enabling success in formal and life-long education[14][15]. These skills for success, including techniques for time management and settingpriorities, active reading, effective study aids, ways to boost motivation and perseverance, andmethods for effective cooperative learning with peers, can positively influence student successand retention within engineering programs [6][7][16].

Inacademia, students and professors alike struggle with their mental health and well-being. Facultyat all levels must balance many roles and responsibilities such as teaching, mentorship, researchand administrative tasks. Similarly, graduate students must complete course and/or laboratorywork, teaching or research assistantships, secure funding to cover costs of tuition, write andpublish papers, attend meetings, and complete administrative tasks.

A potential way to structure those conversations is either open or closed card sorting.Card sorting asks a group a broad question such as “what are the strengths of the library” andindividuals arrange cards using a category tree [6]. Open card sorting is when the focus group ishanded a blank set of index cards or sticky notes and invited to write down whatever they chooseto. In a closed card sorting conversation, the cards are already filled out by the researchers andthe group organizes them. A variation of this is the nine

These issues wererecently claimed to be understudied [5], but efforts to explore the mental-health-related andattrition-related experiences of engineering graduate students have become more common (e.g.,[6], [7], [8]).Our work investigates the implications of stressors on student well-being and retention. Stresshas been linked to attrition rates for engineering graduate students [8], [9] and stress has beenrelated to mental health challenges in graduate students [10], [11], [12]. Research has suggestedthat a relationship exists between doctoral student mental health and attrition, particularly forstudents exhibiting high anxiety symptoms [11], [13], suggesting that the three phenomena ofstress, mental

Seven responded to both.)Initially, students reported they were “somewhat” or “very” comfortable in their ability to dogeneral tasks such as “working independently,” “problem solving in general,” and “managing mytime.” This is contrasted with their lower initial comfort levels in doing more specific—perhapshigher-level—research skills , such as “defending an argument when asked questions,”“identifying limitations of research methods and designs,” “understanding journal articles,” and“writing scientific reports and papers.” Following the REU program, however, the resultsshowed a change.

However, transfer studentscommonly experience a “transfer shock” when transitioning from community colleges to four-year bachelor-degree awarding institutions. They need to learn to navigate a new environment[2] and often struggle to gain access to departments, people and guidance to help them with thistransition [3,4]. Due to the fact that they are also joining already existing social networks, theyoften also experience a lack of personal relationships with faculty and a lack of social integrationinto their peer group [3,4].

averse to entering college, and once they do enter do not persistbeyond two years and many more do not persist to completion. A major cause for the lack ofpersistence for low-income students has been attributed to their feelings of alienation or isolationwithin the college experience (AAAS, 2021). Low-income students are often high achievers inhigh school, and yet when they enter college, they may suffer from anxiety stemming from theirbeliefs that their academic performance is perceived by others as inferior and that they will oneday be exposed as impostors or frauds not on an academic par with their peers (Sakulku &Alexander, 2011).

First, to test whether later-testing students did better thantheir peers, the correlation between exam scores and the order in which the students took theexam (hereafter, exam order) was determined. The exam order was recorded for 9 out of the 15years in this study. A typical profile is shown in Figure 6 for 2016. In all nine years, the 95%confidence interval (CI) for the slope of score versus exam order included zero.Second, a measure was calculated to see if students performed better on the oral exam thanexpected.
