As such, items developed in this work canbe used to craft a framework for understanding graduate student experiences, but futurerefinement may be necessary to fully capture students’ transitions from undergraduate tograduate education.

The program is focused on graduateengineering students but is open to graduate students from all programs. Students also choose mentorsfrom within and outside the university with the goal of increasing their sense of belonging to the field andtheir identities as research engineers. As part of this program, a pilot study is in progress, aimed atperforming a full-scale network analysis of student interactions.

Researchers have suggested that culture is especiallyimportant for women to persist in a field [23], [30]. A culture of “Engineering with Engineers”could result in graduates who not only are prepared technically and professionally with apractical, realistic understanding of what it is to be an engineer, but who also identify with andare committed to the engineering profession. Hence, results of the study are hoped to lead to aclearer understanding of the changes that promote engineering identities, particularly in women,and how such identities affect students’ sense of belonging in a program and their persistence inthe major.It

PLP was created to connectcore concepts learned in various computer engineering courses, and is aimed at improving thelearning experience for students. It is grounded in the theories of social constructionism andsituated cognition. Results from the pilot studies show that PLP is highly effective in engagingstudents and in helping them gain valuable skills. One clear advantage we are beginning to see isthat students, instructors, and teaching assistants all found it very convenient
