Both questionnairesassessed demographic information and information regarding their choice and feelings forchoosing engineering as a career. The questionnaires also assessed any hurdles they expect toface by transferring to LSU or continuing in the program. The responses to these questions werecompared between the two groups to determine potential effects of actually transferring to LSU.The results from the self-efficacy questions suggests that anticipating students rated this more Table 4.

In our sample, participants often reported on how crucial the influence and support of members of the community and family was in shaping their career interests and self-efficacy in achieving a career in STEM.2. Redefining success was an important aspect of the counter narrative about motivations for academic and professional pursuits. While participants did report recognition, personal fulfillment, and a desire for success as motives toward their academic and professional pursuits, they also reported the need to have an impact on emerging FWoC and other minority populations entering STEM fields, a need to create value specifically around having a social impact either within or outside their current institution.

Respondents to the survey with mindful attitudes were more likely tohave been involved with leadership and entrepreneurial clubs, courses, and initiatives. Theresults suggest that students who exercise mindfulness in their routine are set up for successfulentrepreneurial and design-related endeavors.Through a meta-analysis of literature in psychology, Lebuda et al.

protocolapproved by the Institutional Review Board at LPI.

These survey items had a 7-point response scale, with the exception of the math confidence (or self-efficacy) items that had a5-point scale. The survey also included additional items, but these are beyond the scope of theresearch questions explored in this paper. The pre and post surveys in 2017 and 2018 included afairly large number of items (73), with additional questions added to the post survey in fall 2018.Concerns with the length of the survey and quality of student responses led to an effort tooptimize the survey

matters. (p. 123)A separate but related phenomena to creativity is innovation. Specifically, based on extensiveinterviews with serial innovators, Dyer, Gregersen, and Christensen (the authors of theInnovator’s) DNA postulate that innovators tend to be avid questioners, observers,experimenters, and idea networkers. They framed these four phenomena as the “behavioraltendencies” of serial innovators. In alignment with the Innovator’s DNA, we identify innovationas much more than a function of the brain but also a function of behaviors [7]. In the context ofengineering design, to be an innovative engineer requires the act of doing or creating.We recognize that behavior is fundamentally contingent upon one’s inner drives, motivations,values, self

Astudy [41] conducted at Louisiana Tech University explored the impact of backgroundknowledge on the success of freshman engineering students, as measured by grades andgraduation rates. The author acknowledges the limitation of analyzing data from a singleuniversity, and also notes that the focused examination of a specific context provided a nuancedunderstanding that might be obscured by institutional variation.Collectively, these studies underscore the potential benefit of a nuanced approach that considersinstitutional differences in the context

Questions about social belonging should assess the ability for students to develop meaningful close social connection, such as mentorship, rather than general social connection.3. Persistence research in tech-heavy engineering fields should assess programming self-efficacy, which women report lower levels of [52]. The increasing demand for these skills in engineering may exacerbate the technical confidence gap, further perpetuating the gender gap in these fields.We report on some initial ways persistence in ML/AI
