The authors of [15] interviewedengineering students and instructors from a calculus course on the impact of the transition, andtheir results highlight the diverse needs of students and students’ decreased access to resources. Aparticular challenge for online engineering courses is facilitating virtual laboratory experimentsand hands-on projects, and the impact of COVID-19 on senior capstone design courses has beenstudied (see, e.g., [16, 17]).In this paper, we present a qualitative analysis of upper division engineering students’ responsesto open-ended survey questions on their experiences
