Central to this approach is the nuanced way in which people’s livedexperiences are shaped by a multiplicity of interdependent social categories and identity markers(Cole, 2009). For example, the structures of race, class, and gender ‘‘create disadvantages forwomen of color’’ but also ‘‘provide unacknowledged benefits for those who are at the top ofthese hierarchies’’ (Zinn & Dill, 1996, p. 327). More recently, Purdie-Vaughns and Eibach(2008) coined intersectional invisibility and defined it as “the general failure to fully

international student perspective. We seek agreater understanding of the following: 1) experiences that contribute to international students’ perceivedsense of belonging, and 2) contributors to international students’ perceived quality of interactions with peersand faculty. A qualitative research approach using the critical incident technique with a constructivistperspective was used for this study. The overall results, and in particular understandings about the conceptof ‘sense of belonging’ that emerged from the students’ lived experiences, will provide insights fordeveloping an improved and inclusive institutional support structure for international students within U.S.engineering doctoral education.Sense of belonging Sense of belonging is

satisfaction.1 The workshop for international students was so well attended each year that OISS started offering it regularlythroughout the academic year. It is therefore no longer on WIE’s annual calendar.Networking activities provide students the opportunity to meet and learn from role models.These events tend to center on hearing people’s stories. Our signature networking activity is anannual career panel, which brings engineers from across the country to campus to talk to studentsabout their jobs and career paths. Panelists provide brief introductions, but most of the session isreserved for audience questions. The discussions are always lively and appreciated by thestudents.Another example of a networking event is our “Meet Your Faculty” lunches
