To summarize the overarching research plan for the CAREER grant: Phase 1A (years1 and 2) was a qualitative study of N = 42 graduate students that were identified as “departers”(those who left their doctoral plan of study) and questioners (those who were considering leavingtheir program). Phase 1B (years 3 and 4) collects time-series data from questioners using SMS textmessages, collected three times per week from participants over an entire year. The first cohort ofparticipants completed an entire year of the study in January 2023, and a second cohort ofparticipants started in October 2022. Phase 2 (year 5) investigates faculty

for the CST majors the CS3 course is a mandatory one. Also, no recoveryafter the end of the pandemic (in Fall 2021) is recorded for the CS3 enrollment numbers.Figure 4 summarizes Table 3 and demonstrates that COVID-19 affected the enrollment numbersfor students across all ethnicities. However, it can be observed that different ethnicities havedifferent patterns of when students of those ethnicities were affected most. We cannot explain whythe timelines of the changes in the enrollment numbers for different ethnicities vary. However, thisis an interesting phenomenon that we plan to investigate in our future work.Figure 2. Enrollment For CS1, CS2, and CS3 Courses for Men and Women: Overall Enrollment for CST and non-CST

Due to the complex and multidisciplinary nature of their projects, engineeringstudents must learn how to work effectively on a team, as the majority will be expected to workas part of a team after graduation. The projects that they will face during both their academic andpost-academic careers will involve problem-solving and critical thinking, and the unique skillsand perspectives of each team member are necessary to arrive at effective solutions. This paperintroduces a pedagogical boardgame aimed at simulating arguments within an engineeringexercise, as well as the study planned to track the changes.A diverse team has people with different backgrounds, experience, and ways of thinking.
