This will impact programmatic efforts as well, as the program has allocated funds tosupport the attendance of graduate school if students wish to attend one of the participatinguniversities. We found no significant demographic patterns, but we initially noticed that Whitestudents, men, and students whose parents had bachelor's degrees each slightly preferredinternship over other pathways.We note that this survey is a pilot survey that came at the end of a year of programming. Thus,the lack of interest in entrepreneurship and research is not only expressing initial interest but alsoreflecting the impact

Thus, although we have a sense (from our qualitative research and programmaticobservations) that the program improved in messaging on Graduate School and Entrepreneurshipfrom Year 1 to Year 2. This messaging did not shift the students’ interest to choose differentcareer pathways, and we cannot showcase this with statistical evidence at this time. As furthercohorts continue to enter the program, we can have all of them take pre-surveys to better accountfor programmatic improvements over

As experienced educators and researchers, our observation is that whilecybersecurity education has witnessed extensive collaboration across government, industry, andacademia, quantum education in some sectors is not receiving the attention as highlighted bygovernment initiatives. We propose a systematic approach, leveraging established frameworkslike NICE, to integrate quantum computing education into mainstream curricula to ensure thatindustry will not have the large gap of filling jobs as the cybersecurity sector is currentlyexperiencing.We present an analysis of two courses introduced in our CS department: "Introduction toQuantum Computing," and "Quantum Computing II."

individualswith high self-efficacy have higher academic persistence and achievement [5, 6, 7, 8].Given that self-efficacy is a motivational construct, one thing that is not explored enough is itstransitory nature. How does one cultivate and develop self-efficacy in a particular domain? Towhat extent is initial self-efficacy fixed? And to what extent can someone influence it? We believethere are multiple such contours on which the dynamics of self-efficacy should be tested, studied,and validated so as to understand self-efficacy’s multidimensional nature and its ability to impactone’s academic outcomes. In this paper, we intend to study two such research questions that take asnapshot of students’ self-reported confidence related to learning to program and

Each researcher verifiedtheir code for this student, and we finished this round after achieving consensus on the strategyfor all the discourses of this student. In order to achieve consensus, some of the codebookdefinitions for each category were changed to align with data and researchers’ observations. Forexample, two changes made to the coding book

, students who“migrate” to other majors can not only be successful but may also have enhanced graduation ratesrelative to those who initially began in the field [25]. In recognition of the fact that students oftendo not follow a linear trajectory to a career [19], it is important to consider what factors can attractstudents to a field and encourage their persistence.One approach is to describe switching behaviors in STEM more broadly [26], in terms of gender,race, family background, college preparedness, college experience, financial support, andinstitutional characteristics [27]. Researchers have noted there might be gender differencesamong those who elect to enter a STEM major and that certain experiences can influenceretention as well (e.g
