Perceptions of Engineers and Engineering as a Career Relate to Their Self-Efficacy, Career Expectations, and Grittiness?AbstractThis complete research paper examines the potential connection between student beliefs aboutengineering as a profession, as well as the perceptions of their family and friends, to their reportedself-efficacy, career expectations, and grittiness.The student responses examined were obtained from non-calculus ready engineering students at alarge land grant institution in the Mid-Atlantic region. The students participated in a well-established program focused on cohort formation, mentorship, professional skill development, andfostering a sense of inclusion and belonging in engineering.

Moreover, algebra is a key lever topromoting rich postsecondary opportunities. To address limited algebra proficiency in one urbanschool district, a mid-Atlantic university outreach center developed a strategy of extendedlearning time for ninth to eleventh graders and received funding from the NSF (DRL-2005790).The program’s curriculum entails online learning with math/algebra (reinforcement) lessonscontextualized within engineering challenges (i.e., “missions”).

Thefollowing paper reviews the program requirements of nine civil engineering and civilengineering technology programs in the Mid-Atlantic region and the current high schoolgraduation requirements of the average incoming student.
