However, thereliability and validity of self-report surveys is suspect (Mayer 1999).

This result explains the high uncertainty with these two majors as they appear to beoutliers compared to the other five engineering majors. This is likely due to the small size of thesample where confidence interval tends to have narrower width in larger sample, indicatinggreater precision in the estimate.Taken together, the PCA findings (PC1 and PC2) and the correlation results offer a nuanced viewof how different programs vary in both curricular demands and post-graduation trajectories.Programs with higher curricular complexity may see a greater inclination toward graduate study,sometimes accompanied by
