, adding elements of convenience andsnowball sampling to the recruitment process. For the purpose of this study, the focus was placedon students who were frequent, dedicated users of Makerspaces, rather than casual users –ideally, these students were the most likely to have developed broad and deep skills associatedwith time spent in these spaces. Current industry professionals were recruited for interviews byconvenience, snowball, and criterion sampling utilizing existing contacts at the selectedMakerspace sites (typically faculty or staff formally connected to the spaces in an advisory oradministrative role). These contacts were requested to provide lists of recent graduates – alumniwho have since transitioned into professional roles – who were

upon graduation. “University courses are the preparatory stage to a profession and should therefore encourage learning that reflects the way in which professionals continue to learn and work.”[2]It was observed that students do not exercise the level of care with their assignments that shouldbe required of young engineers. Not to suggest that the consequences of submitting an incorrectacademic assignment are dire, but it seems reasonable that an elevated level of effort should beput forth, especially from students near the end of their undergraduate studies as juniors andseniors. Students often regard their homework submissions as simply a product to be handed in,and the accuracy of their solutions is of minimal concern. This is an

The main goal of this research is tounderstand how institutions can meet nontraditional students where they are and be supportive oftheir collegiate endeavors. The study is guided by the following research question: what are theexperiences of nontraditional students in engineering with university support systems?We utilized various data sources such as journal reflections, interviews, and participatory designto triangulate our research. Most recently, we conducted a participatory design session to createpersonas of nontraditional students in engineering with actual students who are living these lives.These personas can then
