In recent years, the study of transitions has attracted renewed interest frompolicy makers and researchers in the light of changing labor market patterns, the diverse transitionpathways of young people, the transformation of professional knowledge, and an increasingdisjuncture between students’ academic training and the specific skillsets sought by employers [1, 2,3]. Yet very little is known about this transition in the field of engineering [4]. Most studiesconcentrate on the job readiness of engineering graduates [5, 6].

She also studies the role of professional culture in wage inequality, cross-national beliefs about work time for mothers (with Maria Charles), and, in a Social Problems article, perceptions of inequality among high-level professional women (with Mary Blair-Loy).

Our study uses an identity lens to understand Latinx persistence in engineering.Theoretical Framework and Literature Review We draw from a sociocultural theory of identity [5] - [7] to understand how Latinxengineering students see their trajectory through engineering studies and how they decide onnext steps, whether it be entering the engineering workforce or pursuing graduate school. Briefly,this perspective argues that identities are situated in social and cultural worlds that are populatedby social types that members of those worlds recognize as meaningful, i.e., their actions and theiruse of cultural artifacts such as words, images or texts [8].

The contextualinterplay in which we apply our theoretical lenses is directly related to types of practice andinnovation to emerge [25, 26]. Further, integrating our context of practice and theoretical basis atthe outset supports the decision-making processes of individuals working in the field [5, 26].Thus, this section begins by illustrating the use of each of our four lenses in the context ofengineering education.
