thoroughly researched (Miller, Slawinski Blessing, and Schwartz,2006, Wang, Eccles, and Kenny, 2013). Career opportunities these fields are growing withadvancements in technology. The present study examines young students’ perceptions, of notonly engineering careers broadly, but also how students perceive career opportunities inelectricity and energy fields. This study explored the following research questions:1) Are there gender differences in engineering and electricity/energy career interests for youth ingrades 4-6?2.) Does an interest in engineering correlate with career aspirations in engineering or careeraspirations related to energy and electricity?3.) Do the factors of self-efficacy, outcome expectations, interests, and goals predict

supported this development by introducing an easy way tovirtually visualize objects in three dimensions. As a result, industry and engineeringprograms have embraced this technology, and now learning an industry-typical CADsoftware package typically represents the backbone of the first design course. Theflipside of this development is that the learning curve for modern parametric solidmodeling software is steep, and requires explicit instruction on the use of the software.Thus typical first-year Engineering Design Graphics courses typically focus on teaching aspecific CAD software package, and do not specifically address the development ofstudents SV skills and self-regulation, which are direct indicators of student academicsuccess and persistence
