learning is widely accepted as an integral part of engineeringeducation, as these experiences have been shown to improve students’ vocational self-conceptand work self-efficacy, as well as provide higher starting salaries post-graduation [10-11]. In thecontext of this study, enrolment in the program may signal students’ intent to be part of theengineering profession, or at least to obtain some professional experience in the field of theirdegree. However, given that the students are in their first year, we assume that they remain at anearly stage of professional socialization. Therefore, their expectations for the profession and theirown career trajectories may reflect their implicit assumptions about engineering and serve as abaseline for future

From observation at Penn State, department-level efforts toimprove the well-being of graduate students and limit attrition often rely on professionaldevelopment or lecture-based approaches to establish community. While these efforts can beuseful, literature shows that feelings of isolation and a lack of sense of community, rather than alack of career preparedness, contribute to attrition from graduate programs [6].Instructors have effectively increased student retention in engineering fields by encouraging self-efficacy and belonging

In another line of research, Kincaid et al.

As a result of this correlation,students describe feelings such as hostility and lack of caring when characterizing the instructor-student relationship [9].
