Paper ID #37121Work in Progress: A Correlation Analysis of Engagement ofFirst-Generation College Students in EngineeringMs. Abigail Nichole Lehto, American Society of Engineering Education (ASEE) I am a master’s student studying engineering education at (school name) and my research is focused on student engagement of first-generation college students in engineering disciplines.Prof. Ning Fang, Utah State University Ning Fang is a Professor in the Department of Engineering Education at Utah State University, U.S.A. He has taught a variety of courses at both graduate and undergraduate levels, such as engineering dynamics
athletics.MethodologyFor this study, we collected data from the ASEE Profiles of Engineering and EngineeringTechnology Survey, the Carnegie Classification of Institutions of Higher Education [13], and theIntegrated Postsecondary Education Data System (IPEDS) [26]. The ASEE Profiles Surveyannually collects information from higher education institutions that provide at least oneengineering or engineering technology program [27]. We used data from this survey to compileour dependent and independent variables. To predict female faculty's effect on women obtainingengineering degrees, we established our dependent variable as the percentage of degrees awardedto women at an institution. Our dependent variable, Percent Female Graduates, consists of thepercentage of

). Many community colleges across the U.S. offer engineering courses whichtransfer to a four-year university, and 42.7% of engineering students are enrolled at a communitycollege at some point in their education (NSF, 2019). However, year-over-year retention ofstudents in community colleges is low – freshman-to-sophomore rates of retention hover around55% on average (Monaghan and Sommers, 2022). One reason for low retention is thatcommunity college students tend to have more commitments outside of school than theircounterparts at four-year universities. Many colleges offer programs intended to increaseretention and engagement among these students (such as research, scholarships, and formalmentorship). In this review, I sought to answer the
more informed andstudent-focused approach in engineering education literature.AcknowledgementsThis material is based upon work supported by the National Science Foundation under Grant No.2313240.

We started our literature search using thesearch query (recruit* OR college choice AND Black or minorit* AND undergraduate studentsor college students AND engineer*) or near equivalent queries. We used the asterisk wildcard (*)on recruit*, minorit* and engineer* to pick up words like “recruitment” or “recruiting,”“minority” or “minoritized,” and “engineers” or “engineering”. It quickly became apparent thatmany peer-reviewed sources with the content we needed were under the keyphrase of“broadening participation in engineering,” and so we chose to include that search term as well,but still only selected articles that focused

The reviewmethod, called a survey analysis, required us to conduct multiple extensive internet searches,focusing especially on recommendations by organizations for physically disabled musicians andacademic articles detailing the usefulness of new music technology towards this audience (i.e.“OHMI Trust” and “Drake Music”). We reviewed websites of currently developing technologyas well as commercially available products, provided that a background of the product’sfunctionality was available. Upon researching qualifying instruments, all were required to havesome publicly accessible information detailing its usefulness to a physically disabled musician,which may be explained by the instrument
