who switched out of engineering during their first year hadnot. Together, these studies suggest that student persistence in STEM may be a strong function ofstudent satisfaction related to STEM education processes, support structures, and culture.Nontraditional Student SuccessThe literature further indicates that nontraditional students often use more personalized andbroad-minded measures to consider and evaluate their own educational success. For example,Wirth and Padilla [12] found that community college students took a wider view of their successand used goal realization and course completion (rather than degree completion) as indicators oftheir personal achievement. Johnson and Berge [22] emphasized that goal realization may

devaluation of the self in response to the failure to meet feltexpectations.1,2 A sociological perspective on shame is oriented to examine sociocultural context thatmight create the environment for individuals to experience shame in ways that are maladaptive to thesocial context.3,4 Thus, while the present case study is decisively oriented to unpack a single individual’sexperience of shame, we also recognize that the phenomenon occurs in a broader social frame.With this in mind, we have chosen to examine Rebecca’s case of experiencing shame in the context ofbeing a mechanical engineering student. Rebecca, who identifies as a White woman, was a junior-levelmechanical engineering student at the time of our interview with her. She discussed in the

The sample of students is from a singleuniversity, which has a specific first-year engineering curriculum that may or may not bedifferent than other universities. By not expanding the sample beyond one institution, it ispossible responses from second year students at a smaller or large institution will not beconsistent with the perceptions of this sample. Still, the intent of this research was to focus ondeveloping a deeper understanding about the specific sample at one institution.

a biology major. In fact,many of them actually had a career in mind, and pursued biology as the best way to achievethat goal. Furthermore, family members were not only supportive, but provided their childrenwith connections and opportunities within the field. It can be thought that this familiarity actsas a platform on which the professional identity can begin to form.Many of the other STEM majors also cited class as the time when they felt most like aprofessional in their field. Other factors that we believe to play a part in this discrepancybetween STEM majors and engineering students in particular is the presence the fields have inK-12 education. Other STEM fields, such as biology and chemistry, have a large presence inK-12 education

Two commonly discussed reasons for students leaving STEM fields are academicdifficulty and failure to integrate effectively into the campus community or feelings ofisolation/not fitting in2. A space of this nature, in theory, would address both of these concerns –it would provide academic support and also provide a welcoming atmosphere that allows fornatural interaction with like-minded peers within the larger campus community.

Contemporary pedagogicalapproaches, such as problem-based learning and entrepreneurially minded learning, have as acentral focus the desire to expose students to authentic experiences which integrate technicalknowledge with workplace skills connected to professionalism, communication, collaboration,and leadership. This approach can conflict with traditional engineering curricula where theinstruction of technical skills are frequently separated or deemed more important than “softskills” instruction in

Researchers should equip themselves with two types of knowledge: (a) knowledge on data science and machine learning, which is a driver of the fourth Industrial Revolution; and (b) knowledge specific to the types of student experiences (i.e., curricular and co-curricular) of their research interest. These two bodies of knowledge appear to be increasingly important to the interdisciplinary field of engineering education. Researchers also need to keep an open mind and explore a wider range of
