Some of those students later returned to finish either in engineering or ina different field of study.Comparable Pre-transfer programsIn addition to life events, comparable pre-transfer programs also provided students with varyingopportunities to pursue different institutions and to navigate the transfer process. Leo shares withus how he went about leveraging two programs to find success in his engineering path: I was in two programs. One is VT-NETS and the other one is [different program], which is the agreement between [community college] and [different university].

Explanatory Variables that Impact Graduate Engineering Student Enrollment AbstractStudies suggest that graduate education is vital to the innovation and economic well-being of a nation. Historically,the U.S. academic institutions have seen a larger fraction of international students enrolling in graduate engineeringprograms compared to undergraduate engineering programs. Several studies have been reported that address some ofthe concerns of low enrollment of U.S. born students in graduate engineering programs. This paper examines someof the explanatory variables that impact the graduate engineering student enrollment in the U.S. We study the en-rollment pattern of

To improve engagement, several changes are envisioned,including adding additional questions related to international status and incoming grades.Reordering questions, noting the impact on response rate, and inclusion of an incentive forcompletion (e.g., entry into a prize draw, or token payment) continues to be considered, andfollows earlier work.Moving forward, considerable analysis is still required: Better understanding howdemographic groupings within the TX and RX cohort respond to specific questions coded forautonomy, competence, and relatedness will help to better address barriers that students mayexperience to persist in their engineering education.
