where the student explains how s/he solved the problem. To answer thissection, we ask the students to imagine that they are trying to explain what they did to their boss,what the problem was, and how it was solved. Students should assume that their boss knowsabout computer hardware and the current subject. Thus, they should use the correct language andthe right terminology. Some labs ask the students to write a procedure to solve the problem theysolved, assuming that the procedure would become part of the company’s documentation andtraining for other technicians. Some labs require collecting data from the conducted experiment.Students most format the data in tables and charts and present an analysis explaining themeaning of the data. This

These findings also align with Hartman et. al.’s (2015) study whereindustry professionals identified initiative/confidence as a main competence for entry-levelengineering leaders.

ResultsThe study’s three hypotheses were assessed using the interviews and the coded data. On average,each of the 16 participants provided 2.2 reasons for not launching their project as a startup. 3.1. Hypothesis 1Hypothesis 1 was that students do not continue with their projects because they cannot take timeaway from the paying jobs that are supporting their education. The data suggest that this is true.As shown in Fig. 1, students most frequently mentioned lack of time as a factor discouragingpursuing a

Third, time to graduation was consideredonly at the final degree granting institution. Therefore, further exploration about the amount oftime that transfer students have spent at their initial institution(s) is necessary in order to accountfor total time to graduation. Fourth, some factors that could be investigated here are the slope ofhow fast they graduate from the degree granting institution which is an indicator oftransferability of courses that
