still suggested to apply parametric tests if both groupshave sample sizes larger than n=15 even when some test assumptions are not met [16].When data collection from the mid-term and end-of-course surveys are completed, we propose touse two-way mixed ANOVA to measure how the two groups of students’ programming attitudesand self-efficacy evolve over the semester. Ordinal logistic regression might also be conducted totake more factors that could affect attitudes and efficacy levels into account. Besides, qualitativeanalysis will also be performed on the courses they have taken and the courses they think thathave prepared them for the lab activities to provide additional information on the findings.ResultsAccording to the survey data, previous

1980s.THE SMART goal framework, published by George Doren, states that goals should be Specific,Measurable, Attainable, Realistic, and Timely [17]. This overlaps with Latham and Locke’s goal-setting theory but is much more detailed and seems to diverge from their suggestion that goals bedifficult, rather than stating that goals should be both attainable and realistic instead of lofty ordifficult. If we are to follow Bandura’s self-efficacy model, students need “mastery experiences,”which should be somewhat challenging but attainable. The ideal degree of difficulty is likelyindividualistic, but the experience itself can be small or large.Several papers have noted the effect of goal setting on students and engineers [16-22]. However,only two papers

SystemsTheory recognizes that variation in individuals’ development “exists across time within contexts,and across contexts within time;” as a result, “differences in time and place constitute vitalcontributors to plasticity across the life span” [13]. Given the variations by time and place, weexpect a diverse range of pathways of individuals who are on their way to the engineeringprofession.The Social Cognitive Career Theory (SCCT) [14] posits that one’s learning experiences caninfluence their self-efficacy and outcome expectations, which in turn influences their interests,goals and, ultimately, career choice actions; these learning experiences are affected by personinputs (such as predispositions, gender and race) and contextual affordances (such as

institution in theSoutheast United States. Given the exploratory nature of the study, a novel survey tool wascreated that focused on: residual time, club participation, design skills before and after clubparticipation, design self-efficacy, and demographic information, see Appendix A. This researchstudy was approved by the IRB at Duke University (protocol #2023-0178). 1) Survey DesignFor the purpose of transparency, we defined engineering clubs as a subset of clubs whosemembership is primarily engineers, the subject matter is technical, and/or they are a pre-professional organization for engineers. The engineering school at Duke University gives clubsthis designation. We divide engineering clubs into three categories: competition design teams

to selectedstudents. In addition to the scholarship funds, S-STEM programs offer additional activities andresources [1]-[4]. For example, Southern Methodist University provided their S-STEM studentswith weekly seminars and block scheduling which positively impacted the students and theirability to excel academically. While various academic and support resources are included in theimplementation of the S-STEM Program discussed here, this paper’s focus is the impact ofweekly lunches on our students.Student retention is typically influenced by feelings of self-efficacy and inclusion in engineeringspaces [5]-[6]. Reasons for attrition include classroom and academic climate, grades andconceptual understanding, self-efficacy and self-confidence

organizational success. Given that the majority of engineeringgraduates have only extensively been in the educational system [15], it is vital to identifyapproaches that allow them to better thrive in the workplace. Katz found that engineering studentswho had directly engaged with the professional engineering environment through interviews, co-op assignments, and seminars had “expectations [of their workplace responsibilities]…that muchmore closely matched the expectations of the professionals than…the students who had not”engaged with the professional world [29]. Similarly, problem-based learning through a capstonedesign course was shown to increase software engineering students’ confidence in their technicalabilities and improve their self-efficacy

Retention Problem and Gauging Interest in Interdisciplinary Integration into Undergraduate CurriculumAbstractUnderrepresented minorities (URMs) leave the engineering field at a rate significantly higherthan average. Researchers conclude that low self-efficacy, lack of support, and hostile andbenevolent discrimination are contributing causes. We contend that URMs’ lack of retention inengineering is due to a push by these causes, as well as a pull towards fields that more closelyalign with their identity. To explore further, a Qualtrics survey instrument was developed tounderstand the experiences of people who have fully or partially left the engineering field. Wesurveyed 47 URM and 38 non-URM participants at
