The work-in-progress version of this paper attempts to engage with some of the workbeing done at ASEE by others interested in exploring makerspaces, retention, and the impact ofidentity formation on underrepresented student groups. For the final version after year two of thestudy, we expect to engage much more deeply with the broader literature on the subject. Whilethe recommendations are site specific to our university, we expect some of the

Adapted from Shelton (2019) or this conference paper, we honed in on EST’s construct of microsystems and specifically howFIDR graduate students’ mesosystem-level microsystems impact their development. EST posits that individuals directly or indirectly participate in a variety of different microsystems, where a microsystem is a “pattern of activities, roles, and interpersonal relations experienced by developing people in given settings with particular

discrimination experienced by women in engineering during their universityeducation. Discrimination at an earlier stage of professional development may have lastingimpacts on their career decisions. Therefore, the study of discrimination at the university levelshould be elaborated on. We hypothesize in 4a and 4b that discrimination experienced by womenin university is a significant negative predictor of Intentional Persistence. Women in academia are under-represented at all levels, but increasingly so in more seniorpositions [40]. In the 2018-2019 academic year, the University of Toronto Faculty of AppliedScience and Engineering reported that women made up 39.8% of the first-year students, 27.1%of the graduate students and only 15% of professors [41

EngineeringAccreditation Commission’s inclusion of communication as a core learning outcome required for allengineering students has significantly motivated a collective focus on how to effectively teachcommunication skills within required engineering curriculum (ABET Engineering AccreditationCommission, 2007; Williams, 2001). A second driver for embedding communication skills across thecurriculum is the growing body of research on the school-to-work transition for early-careerengineers. Broadly, research on the school-to-work transition suggests that engineering graduatesface significant challenges with communication in the workplace and feel unprepared for professionalskills more broadly in engineering practice (Ford et al., 2019; Gewirtz et al., 2018; Howe et

If ELLCs do substantially improvestudent persistence, we should see a drop in graduation rates for the entering classes of 2019 andbeyond. A challenge is that these cohorts were significantly affected by the COVID-19pandemic, which will likely depress graduation rates independent of the absence of ELLCs.The reasons why the highly successful ELLCs were discontinued are murky, at least to thisauthor. Some of the non-engineering LLCs experienced social problems, perhaps reflected in thenegative results for Other LLCs in our models. The Housing Office struggled
