She has also incorporated theories on social cognitive career choices and student attrition mitigation to investigate the effectiveness of institutional interventions in increasing the retention and academic success of talented engineering students from economically disadvantaged families. She’s also involved in a project that explores the relationship between the institutional policies at UPRM and faculty and graduate students’ motivation to create good relationships between advisors and advisees.Dr. Christopher Papadopoulos, University of

" influences the professional identity of undergraduate STEMstudents. It builds on existing research to show that students who participate in these activitiesfeel greater satisfaction and are more invested and involved in their chosen major. This suggeststhat "capitalization" acts as a key driver in connecting students to their field of study andpreparing them for future careers. Interestingly, the study also found that informal peermentoring can lead to increased participation in "capitalization" activities and improvedprofessional identity outcomes.Micari, et al., 2005 posit that undergraduates in the sciences often experience a disconnect fromtheir instructors, in that they perceive their teachers as preferring a top-down relationship asopposed to

Similarly, women in managerial roles, despite their initial success in thesepositions, faced barriers such as gender stereotyping and work-life balance tensions that led toincreased attrition risk [17], [27]. Women engineers often felt the pressure to conform to societalexpectations of leadership or to forgo technical roles in favor of managerial paths, which in turndecreased their sense of professional identity and commitment to engineering careers.Additionally, a lack of professional role models, particularly female engineers in technical roles,was identified as a critical barrier for new engineers.

To prevent this, we used an integrated team approach used bymany local industry consultants. We ended up with three teams, each to develop their ownbuilding.

These social dynamics play formative roles in students’development of self-efficacy, scientific identity, and scholarly aspirations [10], ultimatelyinfluencing how they come to understand academic work [11]. Individual labs can reinforcebroader cultural patterns in engineering education—for example, often prioritizing technicalexpertise over social concerns [12], [13], [14]—and serve as key spaces where students learn whatcounts as legitimate knowledge and practice.

GEMC suggeststhat the actions of participants can act as inputs that can guide the cognition-action systemtoward related cognitive states.

At the next highest level of meaning, the analogical, many believe thatpeace is more than the absence of war but also requires the presence of justice. In thisconception, a society in which one group oppresses another lacks peace even in theabsence of violence, because the oppression itself constitutes evil.
