Thus, thisstudy takes the approach of researcher to participant, to uncover our own experiences as ESLgraduate students. The experiences we have during our doctoral training influence the development of anidentity as researchers and as potential future scholars that will facilitate the education of the newgenerations or will perform successfully in non-academic contexts. The construction of suchidentities would influence our persistence in our graduate programs. A recent study aboutengineering doctoral students used Identity-Based Motivation theory to explore

engineering profession is changing rapidly. Global issues,technological innovation, expansion of discipline boundaries, and increased professionalexpectations are transforming what engineers do and how they do it. Society is demandingengineering graduates, with strong technical knowledge who can think creatively and critically,effectively communicate, and work in teams to solve challenging problems. The earliestengineering disciplines, civil, mechanical and electrical, have given rise to distinct engineeringspecialties and application‐based disciplines. Many contemporary engineering problems areconsidered to be multi‐disciplinary in nature and require systems thinking in problemformulation and solution. It is clear that we must educate engineering
