] without considering theimpact that other identities may have on the engineering experience, although some findings doindicate that gender and race are factors in attrition and persistence [23]–[31]. Outside of engineering, researchers have investigated the impacts of gender identity [32]–[36], racial identity [37]–[40], and even religious identity [41] on students' experiences inuniversity and future career goals. These studies recognize the multiple identities that studentsmust navigate the world with. Their experiences are complicated even further when they havemultiple marginalized identities (e.g., female, people of color, and LGBTQ in a predominatelyWhite, hetero, male setting) [5], [42]–[45].

groups (such as womenand racial minorities) can help solve the numbers problem and can improve the quality of workbeing done [7], [8]. This requires both expanded efforts to engage new students and a criticalanalysis of the STEM ‘pipeline’. Specifically, the fact that many students report early interest inSTEM but drop out as undergraduate students, graduate students, or early career professionalsindicates that this is more than an issue of early recruitment, but a more serious flaw in the‘pipeline’ [9]–[11].As a result, many methods attempting to engage and retain a wider array of students have beensuggested and tested [12]–[14]. Key among them is the idea of ‘identity’, or the extent to whichstudents identify with their field and feel that

In addition, career certaintymodels allowed us to investigate how experiences at the undergraduate level influenced careerinterest in computer science. Questions included prompts to reflect on environmental andpersonal factors that sustained or diminished interest in continuing within a computer sciencedegree and ultimately a career.

outcomes [18].Our internal (unpublished) assessments have also shown that math ACT score is the mostreliable predictor of student persistence among the standard admissions criteria. Specifically, weaddressed the following research questions: (1) How are college entrance exam scores and HSGPA related to achievement (i.e., GPA), persistence in engineering, and engineering career intentions at the end of college? (2) Are the relations of college entrance exam scores and HSGPA to achievement, persistence, and career intentions explained by initial levels and changes in engineering students’ self-efficacy?Aligned with social cognitive theory [9], we hypothesized that prior achievement would informstudents’ self-efficacy beliefs

, including STEM. While MSIs attempt to bridge educationalgaps seen in these students with pre-college resources, first year mentoring, and tutoringsessions, awareness and participation in URE is not prevalent at a MSI. Participation in suchactivities, however, has been linked to improved career prospects and an increase in thenumber of students seeking graduate degrees. Past studies [1],[2],[9] have suggested that aninitial interest in STEM does not necessarily continue throughout undergraduate education witha higher number of students requesting major changes and/or prolonging their graduationtimeline. This paper proposes to identify current notions and perceptions surroundingundergraduate research of STEM students at a mid-sized MSI along the U.S
