This paper illustrates how to take a complexsubject and make it less overwhelming. Some years ago, several students who were overwhelmed with thermodynamics came insearch of help in understanding this often difficult course.

The Scholars program aims to increase participants' self-efficacy for attending graduateprograms in engineering and to increase the visibility of women in graduate programs, therebyhelping to create a more gender-friendly environment. Self-efficacy is defined as one's belief Page 3.635.1about how well she or he can perform a given task or behavior (Bandura, 1977). The Scholars 1Program also acts as a retention program for undergraduate women in engineering. By providinginformation about career

A studyhighlighted the significant impact of grades on students’ mental, emotional, and physical health[18].

Self-efficacy is defined as one's “belief in theirability to produce desired results by their actions” [9]. The literature corroborates the fact thatself-efficacy is generally a predictor of academic achievement and that students with loweracademic performance are more likely to drop out [2], [3], [10], [11], [12]. The decision to dropout of post-secondary school is connected to long-term economic deficiencies that affect familydynamics, amplifying inequalities in future generations [13].

Participant surveys cite the immense value of one- on-one guidance in overcoming barriers like poor study habits, lack of preparation, and stress.
