How do the technological and mathematical fluencies of engineering students compare with those found in professional engineering settings? ≠ IDENTITY: How do these students come to identify themselves as engineers? How do students’ appreciation, confidence, and commitment to engineering change as they navigate their education? How

Especially given the representation ofbiomedical engineering alumni, it is difficult to say how a degree holder might categorize aposition where they are involved in the manufacturing of medical devices. Additionally, for thosealumni who selected Other, we gave them the opportunity to write in their response. Interestingly,alumni wrote in sectors that may be generally considered to be related to engineering, including“oil and gas” and “consulting,” but which were not specifically named in our broad list of industrysectors.

We also saw differences in how well women andmen think their courses are preparing them to engage in these design activities. The studycontributes new insights by examining the link between design confidence and courseexperience, as well as the relevance of other factors. IntroductionDespite years of research and intervention, women and some racial/ethnic minority studentscontinue to be underrepresented in engineering [1]. For instance, women earned less than onefifth of the Bachelor’s degrees in engineering and engineering technologies granted in the U.S. in2004 [2]. While

English isused in all academic instruction at IITs, however, it is not students‟ native language. Literacyresearch suggests that individuals are disadvantaged when processing information in a non-native language. This study applied two psychometric scales.

According to the Council of Graduate Schools, attritionfrom engineering doctoral programs ranges from 35% for men to 44% for women, with higherrates reported for students in minority groups [1], [2]. Despite such staggering statistics,researchers have just begun to focus on education at the graduate level in response to a call fromthe National Academies for educational change, particularly in science, technology, engineering,and mathematics [3]. Ameliorating attrition at the graduate level is vital because each Ph.D.student who leaves their program represents an investment of both time and money by thestudents themselves and universities, departments, and

Focus has therefore been placed on the choices, achievement, and interests ofundergraduate engineering students. Researchers have suggested that students’ choices to pursueand persist in engineering, and their achievement and interest in the field, are significantlyinfluenced by their engineering self-efficacy beliefs – their confidence in their abilities toperform the tasks that they deem necessary to succeed in the field.1, 2 The richness of the literature surrounding the assessment of science, technology,engineering, and mathematics (STEM
