requirecooperation among experts from many fields. Successful leaders must harness the diversecapabilities of teams composed of these experts and be technically skilled. Undergraduateengineering students can fill this need by learning how to be effective leaders during theirformation as engineers. Unfortunately, many engineering students graduate with littledevelopment of leadership skills; engineering educators do not currently have asufficient understanding of how engineering students develop into leaders.This NSF ECE supported project seeks to improve educators’ understanding of the interactionbetween leadership and engineering identities in the formation of undergraduate engineers.

Computing Identity and Persistence Across Multiple Groups Using Structural Equation ModelingAbstractDespite the projected growth of computer and information technology occupations, manycomputing students fail to graduate. Studying students’ self-beliefs is one way to understandpersistence in a school setting. This paper explores how students' disciplinary identity sub-constructs including competence/performance, recognition, interest, and sense of belongingcontribute to academic persistence. A survey of 1,640 students as part of an NSF grant wasconducted at three South Florida metropolitan public universities.
