Pre- and post-surveysrevealed the common and uncommon areas of the impact of the programs on national andinternational students’ career goals, self-efficacy on graduate school, perceptions of research, andresearch expectation and experiences. Results showed that most students came to favor graduateeducation and research, and their preferences did not change significantly at the end of theprograms.

In regions such as South Asia,Sub-Saharan Africa, and West Asia, one in five researchers in STEM are women [3].According to Werz, Schmitt, Borowski, Wilkesmann, & Isenhardt [4], relatively few womendecide to pursue STEM degrees in higher education, and even fewer enter the workforce inthese fields, of which a tiny fraction manage to attain that middle or higher management statuspositions. For example, in the Netherlands, approximately 24% of STEM graduates arewomen, of which 71% opt for a career outside STEM; as a result, only 13% of STEM workersare women – putting the Netherlands at the bottom of

There are many influencing factors that affect the choice of theacademic curriculum that they select to pursue.
