-efficacy model [10] and the social cognitive career theory [22] have been widelyutilized in engineering education research. These models define self-efficacy as an individual’sbelief in their ability to successfully complete tasks and reach desired outcomes. Further, it isclaimed that an individual’s perceived self-efficacy towards a specific activity influences theirinterest towards it, both of which indirectly influence the individual’s choice to further practicethe activity and gain proficiency at it. This finding was repeated in engineering education by across-sectional study on educators and students, where it was found that engineering design self-efficacy was influenced by experience and correlated with task-specific motivation (i.e

If other non-biologicalfields are excluded (e.g. fuels, chemicals, etc.) to specifically analyze the initial placement ofbiochemical engineering (BioChE) students, it is revealed that

gender gap can be found within different engineering disciplines. One of themost commonly-cited reasons for why systems and industrial engineering attracts more womenthan other engineering disciplines is that it is perceived as having more feminine qualities.Brawner et. al [3]surveyed 70,000 students and concluded that feelings of “warmth” and the ideathat systems engineering is more generally applicable to a career led women to choose theconcentration. Blosser [4]made a similar conclusion, presenting evidence that systemsengineering is seen as feminine while mechanical and electrical engineering are seen as moremasculine pursuits. Other research suggests that math confidence, a common explanation usedby researchers to explain why women choose

If individuals mustexpend a great amount of time and effort to accomplish a goal, then they are more likely tochoose an activity that they feel capable of performing successfully and that will lead to a moreattainable valued outcome rather than wasting their time in a self-perceived futile endeavor [37].The expectancy value theory of motivation holds that people engage in activities to accomplishgoals because of the perceived value associated with their likely outcomes. For example, if theinstructional topic is perceived by the student as relevant and valuable in attaining a sought aftergoal, the student will be motivated to perform [13, 31].
