You don’t think of electrical engineering studentsworking in a steel mill, which was scary but also exciting. Since it’s private industry, notgovernment, I would make a lot more money. These two potential jobs were really fighting me,fighting each other in my mind. I was really struggling with the thought that I have to choose whatpath my life is going to take right now, and the choice that I make is going to determine my future,which isn’t something that I really had to do all by myself before. When I was selecting a college,I got input from my parents and friends

defined based on a students’ cognitivemeasures, including GPA and standardized test scores. Such metrics are used as predictors ofstudents’ future success, and student outcomes, in engineering. However, these metrics fall shortin explaining why admitted students, with high GPA and standardized test scores, can still fail tostay in an engineering program or struggle to graduate on time [1]. Literature suggests that non-cognitive and affective (NCA) factors can play an important role in a students’ success andencompasses measures such as stress, social support, engineering identity, meaning and purpose,mindfulness, belonging, and many others [2]–[11].
