By 2025, the U.S. is projected tobe short 2 million STEM workers (National Science Foundation, 2018). A better understandingof the barriers that result in students disconnecting or dropping out of STEM fields is essentialfor increasing engagement and retention of STEM undergraduate students.There is a growing demand for skilled STEM workers in both the United States and around theworld. However, despite this growing need for a skilled STEM workforce, there is a highattrition rate among STEM undergraduate students, with 48% of students leaving their STEMfields (Chen, 2013). Leaving a STEM field may involve either changing to a non-STEM

You must have an idea of what you want tocreate and sketching is the way to get that idea down and also allows you to share your ideaswith others for critiquing.”The understanding that sketching itself is a way of thinking was very important for students torealize so they could begin using it as a tool rather than as something to perfect by showing totheir peers or instructor. Many students noted how they regretted not having more sketchesleading up to their final design project, which further underlines the newfound importance theyplaced on sketching as a tool to improve their end-product.DiscussionThe exploratory

There are differences in the hardware courses and the courses that mix hardware andsoftware between electrical and computer engineering. Likewise, many programs teachhardware and software to computer engineering students by way of laboratory projects andexperiments.

What do current undergraduate engineering students who graduated from rural high schools describe as influences on their choice to attend college and pursue engineering as a post-secondary major?RQ2. How does the college choice process differ for rural students who enrolled in a 4-year university immediately after graduating from high school and those who transferred from a 2-year institution?RQ3.

This concept is difficult toapply to Electrical Engineering because of the wide variety of specializations offered within themajor. While connections between areas are plentiful, creating a singular project that faculty ofall specializations will deem sufficiently applicable would be nigh impossible.Alnajjar proposes “Integrative Learning
