identity formation over time for bothonline and on-campus doctoral students within one engineering department at a large state university.The current paper focuses on the longitudinal results from the journey maps of an online cohort ofstudents. Data from the 10 participants are analyzed using a multi-step coding process involving threeresearchers, and key themes are extracted. Findings provide evidence-based support for manycommon design elements of doctoral programs, such as the “front loading” of coursework to developresearch interest and capabilities, and the importance of initiating research collaboration with thedissertation chair early in the student’s program. However, the findings also reveal some factors thatmay be unique to online
data was insufficient to understand better the factorscontributing to the increased visibility of discussions regarding RDI during the second semester.Despite this limitation, the continuous expression of opinions throughout the year suggests aconsistent and ongoing consideration of RDI's impact by doctoral students throughout their firstyear.We discovered that the impact of RDI lies in its ability to introduce the relevance of three keydimensions of their doctoral journey in the initial year: 1) RDI as a facilitator of studentwell-being, 2) RDI as a compass to the Ph.D. process, and 3) Sparking conversations oncommunity, belonging, and identity.Furthermore, findings show less prominent themes around awareness of identity issues,specifically

Some may have known their dream school since theywere children, whereas others are only beginning to explore their options as they complete highschool. A plethora of factors influence prospective students’ enrollment intentions. Rising costsare a concern for many students, either limiting their options to in-state universities or makingthem feel locked out of a system they are otherwise academically prepared for [1].

.Degree Maps: Degree maps play a pivotal role in shaping students' academic journeys by providing a structured guide outlining the sequence of courses required to fulfill degree requirements. Prior to 2021, the absence of standardized degree maps within CoE led to department-specific versions that lacked flexibility to accommodate students changing majors after commencing their studies. These disjointed maps often compelled students to shift majors midstream to take classes out of sequence, ultimately extending their time to graduation. However, a transformative shift occurred after introducing a unified and comprehensive degree map in 2021 across all engineering, engineering technology, and computer science programs
internalization of certain valuesover others.IntroductionGraduate students engaging in research education are vying for admission to a community ofscholars, learning to operate within specific requirements, regulations, and expectations in eachfield of study [1]. Shifts in how doctoral students view themselves and their peers, their mentors,the field, and generated knowledge occur throughout the research education process.Simultaneously, students proceed through the process of taking on or rejecting values and valuesystems (axiology) that are proliferated and perpetuated in their professional field of study. Inaddition to messages conveyed from graduate development within engineering environments,graduate students also bring their beliefs about knowledge
