10-weeksummer program where students are paired with faculty to engage in a research or design project.The student is paid a weekly stipend of $400 while being mentored one-to-one by a full-timefaculty member. Approximately 29 students took part in this program during the summer of 2019,culminating in a presentation to their peers and faculty mentors, and members of the Dean’sAdvisory Board for the school.It is hypothesized that the process and completion of the research or design project through theprogram positively impacted the students’ confidence and self-efficacy. To determine if thehypothesis is true, the students were assessed through a simple survey, the results of which arepresented. In addition, two of the 29 students were asked

For their final project, students arerequired to design and build a complete working system of their choice.

Earlier studies amongst thisstudent population indicate that when they engage in project-based learning, their self-efficacyto design and to build increases significantly [4], and this effect is strong enough to manifesteven when the project-based approach is offered online [5]. However, it is worth expandingthe view of what constructs are most relevant to this set of students. The self-efficacy constructwas designed in the Western context, and some argue that it reflects motivation rather thanperceived capability [6], motivating a broadened scope of what constructs may be most apt.Drawing from the author’s observations
