Each student was interviewed for their perspective on the project, and how itprovides a unique experience in their engineering development. A third student (SE Student 3)who had been on the project and moved onto other unrelated research activities with the SEFaculty, was also interviewed. The student interview questions for the SE students is inAppendix B; these questions were modified into an emailed survey form with five-point Likertscale and free response questions for the two undergraduate CS students currently on the project.The following section of the

stated:“Before I got into this program, I really didn't think that much of engineering because in school Itook a physics class and that class was a great struggle for me. So, I came out with a B- in thatclass so I don't really know how I would feel about trying to pursue this career for myself. Forothers it seems like a cool experience”.This meant that while she did not want to pursue a degree in engineering, she took note of theparticipants who did want to be and learned much more about it in the process.

Advising relationships are typicallyformally assigned and structured so that they can help students adjust to the departmental cultureand provide them with a role model, critical information, and an advocate for their professionalsuccess [3]-[5]. Advising, when described as exceptional or as a mentoring type of relationship,can foster a
