The initial few weeks ofclass are often filled with short structured tasks to have all students exploring the topic overalland determining smaller problems that could be tackled during the semester. This can be doneindividually or in small groups. If needed, guests with essential knowledge may be invited tocome to class to present or answer questions. These have included faculty with expertise in theproject topic area or advisory panel members with background knowledge of the project. Oncethose smaller problem areas are identified, students (re)form into groups to identify researchgoals and tasks for the initial exploration.The second part of the class is filled with the smaller research groups completing research andanalysis.

identifiedfactors largely influential in a student’s decision to work while studying. These factors includeinadequate parental contribution, low personal income and debt. The extent of parental financialcontribution to students was considered a particularly important factor in influencing a student’sdecision to work during their studies. A third of students who did not receive a monetarycontribution from their parents worked, but only a fifth who did receive a contribution wereworking during their studies [5, 6]. In general, dependent students with parental incomes of$60,000 or more are most likely to work up to 20 hours per week, while independent studentswith incomes of $25,000 or more are most likely to work 35 or more hours per week [7].

student enrollment and retention are even more important when there is a projected decline in male high school students. Also the ‘chilly campus climate’ has identified the behavior that causes women to lose confidence, lower their academic goals and limit their career choices. The studies conducted in the US and Canada found similarities. The minority students are also considered as a vital source of graduates needed for engineering workforce. All the Universities and colleges should provide a sincere push to retain the minority students who have decided to pursue an engineering and technology education.

Compared to the models cited earlier that stressed the importance ofacademic performance and other institutional factors, such as student-institution match, SCCTfocused more on cognitive-person variables, such as self-efficacy, to reveal the potential for studentsto exert personal agency in their career endeavors.25 26 What is especially important about thesevariables is that they can be assessed and their conditions altered during the freshman year andbeyond in order to enhance students’ perceived consequences of succeeding in college and staying inschool.27 28While this study’s pathways model (Figure 1) bears

High school peers’ influence is also found to be agood predictor for successfully graduating with a STEM degree (Leslie, et. al., 1998). Friend’s encouragementplays an important role not only in a student’s college enrollment decision, but also in the retention decision(Bean, 1983). After entering into university, positive peer influence leads to successful education outcomecomes from opportunities like participating in honors program, tutoring other students, living on campus (Leslie,et. al., 1998). On the contrary, lack of student community on campus is found to have negative impact onstudents’ retention (Buyer & Connolly, 2006).Adult

Asengineers have testified, the majority of their experiences as students in engineering coursesinvolved sitting in rows of desks, facing the front of the room, and copying notes written on achalk-board by an expert engineering faculty member who also had received no preparation ineducational theory [25].
