SDT providesuseful information about students' holistic experiences, as opposed to traditionally reported gradesand retention rates after SBP participation.By looking at current and past SBP participants' perceived competence, autonomy, and relatednesswithin the context of engineering programs, one can better understand what is helping or hinderingstudents in the pursuit of engineering degrees and careers. I have found that freshmen expresscommon sentiments and share some similar experiences in the SBP, but those experiences may bedescribed differently for students with different SDT scores or different K-12 experiences (RQ1).More specific SBP components contributing to

This is a concerning result, when we consider theprofound responsibilities that accompany the role of an engineer.
