One “Learned so much more about the field I am going into and the different types ofwork I can expect in my future.” Another described growth in research interest, career potential,and opportunities for future study: “Ultimately, it [the internship] opened my interests and eyes to a different type of engineering that I did not expect. Also, with seeing how helpful this opportunity was I have become more excited to transfer and get more involved with this project or other projects.”Emerging self-efficacy [19]-[23] as an engineer is evident in the

Seymour also notes that students with socio-economic disadvantages are atrisk of leaving their institution following just one DFWI grade in a severe STEM gateway courseeven when their grades in other courses place them in good academic standing [4]. This body ofliterature suggests that for many students, particularly women, minoritized individuals, andstudents from disadvantaged backgrounds, issues related to competitive/individualistic climate,lack of fit, lack of interest, and loss of self-efficacy can be significant drivers of attrition

Stacking multiple high-impact practices has been demonstrated to hold potential as a multiplier effect [13,4,14-15].Where experiencing a single high-impact practice is good, experiencing more than one can beeven better. In this study we ask, To what extent does stacking additional high-impact practiceson top of course-based PBL provide additional benefits for students? We examine this potentialvalue in terms of the range of benefits previously associated with PBL: developing professionalskills and mindsets, as well as building content mastery; improving self-efficacy and ownershipover learning; and career preparedness.

This concept aligns with the notion ofself-efficacy [36], where actions are contingent upon one’s belief in their capability to performthem, as acknowledged the authors: “It can be seen that our definition of perceived behavioralcontrol…is very similar to Bandura’s conception of self-efficacy” [4, p. 155].
