The results are expected as the industrial engineering program requiresmore programming-related courses than the other three programs, providing them withopportunities to work with a wider range of programming tools. While this course mainly usesPython, the background differences could still affect students’ general programming attitudes.Industrial engineering students are generally interested in programming, and mechanical andmaterials science students are closer to the neutral level of interest.
