Its significance goes beyond the benefits for theacademic institutions to encompass national concerns.At a large land-grant university in the mid-Atlantic region, between 2003 and 2012, an averagethirty percent of first-year engineering students left engineering before their second year. Athree-year study (2007-2010) implemented to gain insight into this attrition rate, showed thatstudents left primarily because of lack of interest in and knowledge about engineering and theinstitution, disconnection from the engineering profession, low self-efficacy and academicdifficulty.
