The purpose of this Work in Progress (WIP) paper is to detail theinterview procedure and explore how the frameworks used provide insight into the data. Forexample, we observed that when discussing their engineering identity, students tend to talk aboutother forms of identity highlighting the complex nature of the construct.IntroductionAccording to a report entitled "Is U.S. Science and Technology Adrift?" released by theCommission on Professionals in Science and Technology (CPST), the nation’s engineeringworkforce is growing but lagging behind the overall growth of the country [1].
