First, a pilot survey of371 first-year engineering students was conducted at three institutions in the U.S. during thespring semester of 2015. An exploratory factor analysis (EFA) was performed to examine theunderlying structure of the piloted questions about students’ engineering identity. The developeditems were used in a subsequent study deployed in the fall semester of 2015 that measured morethan 2500 first-year engineering students’ attitudes and beliefs at four institutions in the U.S. Thedata on engineering identity measures from this second survey were

attritionrate among STEM doctoral students is as high as 50% [2], and retention of students fromtraditionally marginalized groups continues to be of special concern [3]. These studies alsoindicate that strong engineering identities and clear future goals are critical to student success[4]–[6], but often fail to include graduate students as a population distinct from undergraduatestudents [7]–[9]. To begin remedying this gap, the GRADS project was proposed, a qualitativeand quantitative investigation of engineering doctoral students’ (EDS) experiences, identities,and motivation [10].As the first step in this process, three qualitative studies were conducted with an EDS sample[11]–[13].
