This interpretation of science andengineering education in terms of its economic function pervades our society and academia farbeyond the NRC and NSTA, as STEM careers and innovations within the field are consideredvital to sustaining the health of our economy. The Next Generation Science Standards addressesthe purpose of science and engineering education and grapple with how to support teachers intheir effort to engage “all students” with these standards.Equity in science and engineering education?In recent decades, there has been significant criticism from academia and popular

The goal is to gain a comprehensive understanding of theinformation sources and decision-making strategies used by these students, with the hope ofimproving the major selection process for all students.Theoretical FrameworkThe study is rooted in the Social Cognitive Career Theory (SCCT), which posits that students'evolving career interests are shaped by their self-efficacy expectations. This theory has beensupported by multiple research studies, which have established a positive correlation betweenself-efficacy and career interests. [2][3][4].

In addition, females have a much lowerrepresentation than males do across typical STEM subjects. Learning STEM subjects is apathway to good jobs, and those jobs are important to the American economy [4].Achievement gaps in STEM among gender groups and the underrepresentation of females inthese fields should be addressed if the United States is to meet its educational goals [3].

While the current programof study is effective in getting students excited in Engineering and its many disciplines,and in giving students a wide range of practical introductory experience in Engineering, itlacks the ability to get students to consciously develop a career path in engineering, andbegin considering the necessary academic and experiential steps required in order toexperience a successful career in the engineering discipline of their choice. As a result,several students find it easier or more convenient to change majors when they feeloverwhelmed by the requirements for engineering students, since they never really had aplanned career path initially.To address the above concerns, an additional project, the ‘Engineering your

This pilotstudy was designed to answer the following questions, “What are school counselors’understanding of engineering” and “What is the self-reported need for and support desired byprofessional school counselors to aid their work with academic and career development relatedto students and engineering?” An online survey instrument was developed to collect informationfrom school counselors about (1) their
