Whileliterature from other disciplines indicates that financial pressures and long time-to-degree are twoof the most pressing issues causing attrition, ~80% of doctoral students in engineering are fullyfunded [6], and that the average time to doctoral degree completion is around 5 years, which is onthe shortest timeframe across disciplines due to the applied and well-funded nature of the field [2].Most attrition work in engineering is qualitative, but even quantitative surveys of

Some studentsexpressed a difficulty to adapt to their new found independence, depressions, the need toestablish self-control to maintain good study habits, home sickness, and others. Since the topic ofcollege education has been studied thoroughly we will focus on the motivators and how theseaffect the lives of the students.To explore these issues we conducted a series of focus groups with students ranging from thefirst to the last semester before graduation.This paper is organized as follows; first we review the literature on success factors inengineering, and how intrinsic and extrinsic motivators influence attrition and retention.

First, the finding shows that some instructors do not make a special effort toincrease participation of these groups, so D&I efforts by instructors are concentrated among asmall group of instructors. Second, the finding begs the question of why some instructors do notmake a special effort to increase female and URM participation. Possible explanations suggestedin the data include 1) differing instructor views on D&I, and 2) faculty time commitments toresearch.

During secondand third year courses, the engineering curriculum focuses on analytical concepts and techniquesultimately intended to support design analysis ability. Given the overcrowded traditionalengineering curriculum, it is not surprising that students do not improve their creative processingskills. The proliferation of assistive software for design has an impact on student training as well.For example, sketching was a critical skill in traditional engineering design but the practice hasbecome less important to students as computer-aided drawing tools have become available tothem.Industrial and academic leaders long expressed concerns about the impact of
