TwoAbstractIn this paper, we aim to summarize our efforts to understand how the identities of civil andmechanical engineering students engaged in capstone projects relate to their engagement indesign activity. Building upon our previous introductory study, we share insights from thecontent analysis of interviews with civil and mechanical engineering students engaged incapstone design courses and report initial findings related to how students’ self-perception asengineers impacts their role within the capstone team.IntroductionIn this paper, we summarize the initial results from a wider study funded through the NSF RFE(awards No. 2138019 and No. 2138106) program exploring engineering students' engagementand motivation in capstone design
