Participation in co-ops increasesself-efficacy which is reported to improve retention; albeit co-op experiences do not usually occuruntil after the first year 8 .Other researchers argue that student’s pathways through engineering are guided by theiridentification with engineering rather than a homogeneous curriculum acting like a pipeline 13 . Inessence, freshman engineering retention might be improved by stronger identification withengineering careers 14 .

In addition to these abilities, developing acommand of electromagnetics requires the ability to visualize and manipulate fields and vectorsin three dimensions, making this subject one of the most difficult to teach within the field ofengineering.9 Usually, individuals who are highly educated in the subject, such as instructors,have

, individuals require technical knowledge. They cannot, however, rely on a skillset alone if they hope to enjoy fulfilling careers. Individuals need a mindset that adds “know-why” to technical “know-how” to contribute to the success of their colleagues and employers, as well as to create value for others. An entrepreneurial mindset is key to personal and professional success. Engineers equipped with this mindset understand the bigger picture and, therefore, can recognize opportunities, evaluate markets, and learn from their mistakes. These engineers are capable of more than solving technical problems; they are constantly looking for unexpected ways to create value After recognizing the

The firstcategory is a “theoretical study before internships” model, such as the “3+1” model. Inthis model, the students will study at university for the first three years and do privateenterprise internships in the last year. For example, Xi'an University of Science andTechnology arranges for students to complete study in the enterprises in the seventhand eighth semesters. The student should finish courses related to enterprises’ actualoperation, be familiar with the enterprise, start pre-job training, develop career plans,etc. in the seventh semester, followed by the post practice in the
