To improve enrollment ingraduate degree programs, it is important to understand what factors affect students’ interest inengineering graduate school and research, including previous research experiences. This paperaims to examine undergraduate students’ socialization into research to further understand thesefactors and promote enrollment in graduate school and research careers. As researchers aim to encourage more participation in engineering graduate schools andthe development of skilled engineers, it is important to showcase our current understanding of theclimate and experiences of engineering graduate school.

-Income BackgroundsIntroductionThis work-in-progress (WIP) paper will share preliminary insights on the implementation ofinterventions in STEM learning environments impacting undergraduate engineering degreecompletion at a Historically Black College and University (HBCU). While HBCUs onlycomprise three percent of post-secondary institutions in the United States, they enroll a highpercentage of minority students [1, 2], and are often criticized for having low graduation rates,especially for low-income students [3]. To combat this concern, a public historically black land-grant university in the southeastern region of the United States was awarded the National ScienceFoundation (NSF) Scholarships in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics

impact of cognitive factors on student’s performance while solving complexand ill−structured problems is well recognized. A student's success in problem−solving isfinely shaped by task complexity, cognitive factors of goal orientation and the need forcognitive closure, and their level of engagement. For educators in science, technology,engineering, and mathematics (STEM), it is important to understand how task complexity andcognitive factors combine to influence problem−solving processes to prepare STEM studentsprofessionally and ensure they are well−equipped to meet the growing needs of the skilledworkforce in the industry. In this context, cognitive factors of goal orientation and the needfor cognitive closure play a significant role. An

Such assistance includes attending office hours for extra help, joining astudy group or seeking out tutoring. Universities similarly focus on helping students throughcognitive means, such as encouraging faculty to improve teaching methods, upgrading orimproving technology resources or developing tutoring for specific courses. What is often notsupported are students’ non-cognitive competencies, which have been shown in previous studiesto be related to academic performance. Such non-cognitive and affective (NCA) competenciesinclude, for example, mindset, motivation, self-control, study strategies and environment, andstress management

Byincorporating teamwork into their curricula, educational institutions help bridge the gap betweenacademic learning and professional requirements.Prior research has shown that effective teamwork is an important soft skill for building a set ofskills that are essential in the modern
