As a result, a student’s exposure and perception of different career disciplinesand professional roles is highly influenced by the introductory actions of parents.Parents themselves can serve as role models for engineering if they themselves are engineers [4].Studies have found that children are often more literate in the professions of their parents and asa result occupational inheritance may occur. This phenomenon has been found to occur infamilies in which a parent, sibling, or other relative(s) are engineers as well as in families withmedical professionals and lawyers.
