The original plan was to perform focus groups but often students did not respond atthe same time, making scheduling individual interviews easier. The researchers did not observedifferences in the answers from focus groups or individual interviews. For example, the studentswere asked “If you feel comfortable, did finances play a role in your track selection?” and allstudents chose to answer the question, often saying which option was the most affordable tothem.

It became clear even from the early stages of designing and conducting this researchwhat a significant element the differences between institutions posed. Contextual factors, bywhich we mean specific, often contingent facts or background circumstances that shape theconditions for conducting this research or the resulting findings, continuously popped up asissues in our planning and research design. Often they rose to our attention because somefactor was not shared uniformly amongst participating institutions. Some key examplesinclude that undergraduate engineering degrees in the Netherlands are three years long,whereas in the U.S. and China take four years; that all incoming undergraduate engineeringstudents at some universities begin

Finally, as neither of the authorswas fluent enough in other languages to warrant including them, only articles published entirelyin English were included, i.e. an English abstract alone was insufficient for a study to beincluded.

” regards interdisciplinary knowledge as one of the core education elementswhen cultivating STEM graduates. Thus, interdisciplinarity has become an increasinglyimportant feature of engineering education over recent decades, and work has begun toextend these efforts from undergraduate to graduate education [5]. Despite multiple interdisciplinary teaching modes being designed to meet this need,critics view interdisciplinary teaching innovation at this stage as lacking novelty, scholarlydepth, methodological rigor, and integrated planning [6]. It has been recommended that thevalue of interdisciplinarity cannot be explained without attention to the subjects valuing itand the inner changes they undergo [7]. However, previous studies of
