Following, that areresults from the thematic analysis, followed by a concluding discussion in Section 5.2 Literature ReviewThe Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) is the theoretical framework for this paper. TPB was ini-tially introduced by Ajzen [15] in 1991 and has been supported with empirical evidence since then.The theory says planned behaviors, such as starting a new venture, are intentional and thereforebest predicted by intentions towards the behavior, not by demographics, personality, beliefs, or atti-tudes [15]. TPB is also an important cognitive process model for the evaluation of EntrepreneurialIntention as the model describes the complexity of the relationship between human behavior andrelevant

Over the course of the project, 54%(N = 82) of students volunteered constructive feedback. The two major requests from studentswere to 1) increase the number of responsibilities in the projects and 2) to enable the committeesto better plan or organize their pieces of the project. In response to these requests, in second yearof implementing this theme, we added a ‘waiting room

a reason, but others viewed theirengineering degrees as a “back-up” in case other plans failed [7].Because of the disconnect between students studying engineering and choosing career pathsoutside of engineering, major selection is not necessarily a perfect predictor of career choice andthe terms should not be used synonymously. Major selection is the decision of what to study at acollege or university; for example, chemical engineering. Career choice is the field in which arecent graduate decides to work upon graduation; for example, paper processing and production.In this example, the student’s major selection and career choice are in a common field:engineering. However, if the student had decided to pursue medical school or work in
