The coreobjective is to enhance high school students’ understanding of the engineering design processand the real-world roles of engineers, empowering them to make well-informed career choices.This paper focuses on examining the aspects of the pre-college engineering education curriculumthat are appreciated by the students which may influence engineering as their future careerchoice.The study is part of a larger research project, where the research team conducted surveys ofstudents participating in the e4usa during the 2022-2023 academic year. The survey wasadministered in 33 schools across 20 states and regions in the U.S. A qualitative analysis wasconducted on the

these efforts, first-generation students are stillless likely than their peers to persist or graduate from college [4] and there is the need forcolleges to understand the skills that first-generation students bring to college, and the skills thatthey perceive to be important to help them succeed in their coursework.The low number of women studying engineering at colleges continues to also be a problem,despite the efforts to increase the representation of women. According to the 2022 AmericanSociety of Engineering Education (ASEE) report, women made up only 25.5% of the totalundergraduate engineering enrollment compared to men at 74.5% [5].

This might require different studybehaviors than those needed when working to compile code where trial and error might helpforge a way towards a solution. The theoretical mathematical nature of the course mightalso alter students motivation.2 MethodsOur goal was to discover student profiles that might be associated with performance in aDiscrete Math course.

However, certain kinds of robotics, such as small mobile robots, are more often featured inpractical engineering coursework due to safety and cost constraints (McLurkin et al., 2013). As a result, engineeringstudents may never get direct practice working with certain types of robotic equipment, such as robotic arms, despitethat equipment being vital to modern industry (Gomes and Bogosyan, 2009). In these cases, some instructors haveturned to simulations and virtual reality (VR) to provide exposure (Rukangu et al., 2021; Cassola et al., 2021). However,simulations rarely emulate a

This is especially the case at selective higher education institutions likeR1 (Research 1) universities, particularly in science and math departments (Li & Koedel, 2017).When looking deeper at departments of engineering for example, we often find limited to noBlack and Hispanic engineering faculty (BHEF) members (Nelson & Brammer, 2010). Whilethere
