the university experience is to enable students to transition from a life athome to an independent life as a young adult. Some research suggests that these are the mostformative years of a young adult’s life, where the choices, relationships, and careers paths thatone establishes has a “defining” impact on future life outcomes such as happiness, and earningpotential 6. Elements of the college experience can serve as an enabling role in this developmentprocess; experiences that challenge students to become aware of who they have been and whothey can become in life. As students become more aware of these core issues, they can becomemore active in the development of their current and future goals and aspirations.The National Academy of

It is therefore crucial thatengineering students remain involved in the program to serve as role models and team memberswho are comfortable with the content knowledge applied in the activities. However, it is believedthat Access Engineering also could benefit greatly from leadership by those with experience inchildcare and education. With these considerations in mind, pre-service teachers were employedas leadership team coordinators (i.e., activity leaders), and engineering students were retained asleadership team (i.e., activity assistants).Novel Opportunities for Pre-Service Teachers In addition to helping

disseminated.Project Rationale 2 There are many ways in which students can pursue the goal of earning a four yeardegree in engineering. Traditionally, students enroll in courses and earn a degreeattending the same four-year institution. While this method is appropriate for many students,other paths are becoming increasingly popular. An alternative path is through the use oftwo year institutions as a mechanism for the completion of a four year degree. Today,many students are choosing to begin their college career at community colleges andtransfer to a four year institution after a period of time to complete their degree. The benefits ofstarting at a community

of education is likely tolead to a career in an engineering related field, there is a clear need to understand the factorswhich influence female students’ decisions to enroll in higher education engineering courses.There are many influences on students’ choices to pursue specific career paths. For example,how students conceive a particular discipline or career will influence this decision, as what theybelieve it to involve will likely affect their interest in engaging with it. In engineering, studentsoften have misconceptions regarding what it means to be an engineer and the Draw-an-EngineerTest (DAET) has frequently been used to investigate these misconceptions.Studies using DAET have found that young students typically conceive engineers

In engineering contexts identity has primarily been studied in undergraduate students andadults, in the contexts of career choices and retention of students within programs [5]. Sfard andPrusak [6] propose an idea of identity that is shaped around narratives. They posit that identitiesare the stories individuals and the people around them tell about themselves. Identities havemany facets, authors, and audiences. Self-perpetuating narratives of success and failure shapeidentity. Institutional narratives, such as success and failure in the school setting, are particularlyinfluential over the way a student may think about their identity [6].
