Studies have shown that student sense of belonging inthe classroom, major, and institution can positively impact performance in future engineering classes andoverall retention rates. Sense of belonging has been identified as particularly important to the retention ofunderrepresented minorities and females.

Overall, the percent of engineering students graduating in fouryears has increased from 7.3% for Fall 2013 freshmen to 17.4% for Fall 2015 freshmen, our firstcohort in this project. We surveyed all the engineering students scheduled to graduate either inSpring or Summer 2019 and asked them about their experiences at SJSU. This paper will discussthe results of a survey of the engineering students who graduated in four years and what helpedthem graduate in a timely manner.

Within this debate it is generally assumed that the curriculum is the arenain potential need of reform [3]–[5]. Curriculum reform deliberations tend to operate at arelatively high level, with a central tension between “theory” (engineering and basic sciencecontent) and “practice” (professional skills, often in project type context) [6].A relatively recent focus for global curriculum discussions has been the spread of outcomes-based criteria for accreditation through the mechanism of the

ofapplications and enrollments into engineering careers of female students as compared to theirmale counterparts. The latest statistics in the United States talk of a 60% gap (i.e. 20% vs. 80%female and male enrollments respectively). Currently, about ten percent of America’s engineersare women, despite the fact that women make up 46 percent of the nation’s workforce1. And thisscenario is not likely to change soon. According to the Extraordinary Women Engineers Project(EWEP) study released in April 20052, a staggering number of high school girls – more than 90percent – do not even consider engineering as a career option. Further, only three out of 85 girlsin a EWEP online focus group of academically prepared students indicated that they wereplanning to

Thistheory suggests that a variety of factors contribute to career choices. Of particularly importancein the SCCT model is the role of self-efficacy beliefs. In accordance with SCCT, self-efficacybeliefs are an individual’s beliefs with regard to their capability to succeed in a particular career6 , in this case engineering. People with positive self-efficacy beliefs regarding engineering aremore likely to pursue a career in engineering. However, before we can begin to understandengineering self-efficacy beliefs as they relate to career choice, we must understand what itmeans to be an engineer what types of
