Based on the survey results, the top three factorsimpacting major selection were job opportunities after graduation, personal interest, and salarylevels. Examining demographics, gender did not have a significant effect on impacting factors,but first-generation college student status did, with first-generation students ranking personalinterest and role models significantly lower than non-first-generation students. There weredifferences in impacting factors between majors, with computer science students rating jobopportunities and salary higher than all other majors

Engineering, as a key component of STEM education, offers hands-on,designed-based, problem solving activities to drive student interest and confidence in STEMoverall. However, K-12 STEM teachers may not feel equipped to implement engineeringpractices and may even experience anxiety about trying them out in their classrooms without theadded support of professional development and professional learning communities.To address these concerns and support engineering integration, this research study examined theexperiences of 18 teachers in one professional development program dedicated to STEMintegration and engineering pedagogy for K-12 classrooms.
