noted as one persistent attribute that students exhibit during theseexperiences. For instance, one aspect of Behroozi et al.’s work [7] compared anxiety levels thattheir participants exhibited while conducting mock technical interviews either in a public settingor in a private setting. It was determined that participants who conducted technical interviews ina public setting exhibited higher levels of anxiety than their counterparts who were in a privatesetting. Similarly, Hall and Gosha [23] conducted a study that measured the correlation ofanxiety and preparation in a technical interview that targeted junior and senior CS majors at aSoutheastern Historically Black College/University (HBCU) in the United States.

Projects may be structured such that smallmodules combine across the semester to form a larger design, e.g. assembling a portableelectronic device for measuring the height of an object [12]. Such projects can combine multiplelearning objectives and even multiple disciplines, e.g. using an electronic strain gauge to measurebeam deformation [6]. Assignments can mix historical engineering, forensics, andcurrent/emerging problems; each activity can be structured such that the students need to identifythe tool(s) that an engineer (who is not necessarily specialized) would need to solve the problem-at-hand [22]. Certain case studies can illustrate the full design process, e.g. the Wright brothersairplane [21

Affecting the Future Career Pathway Decisions of Lower-income Computing Students1. IntroductionWithin research on broadening participation in computing, the experience and perspectives ofundergraduate students have been important elements of exploration. As undergraduate studentsare experts of their own experience, conducting research that focuses on understanding theirperspective can help those who organize programmatic efforts to respond to student needs andconcerns.
