AB  -              University Studies of Student Persistence in EngineeringIn Spring 2011, engineering students at a Midwestern university were surveyed with respect topersistence in their major. The survey was designed to investigate the aspects of persistence andthe reasons behind switching majors. This paper extends the analysis to include an independentstudy that was conducted in 2009. This study was an academic climate survey with the intent ofproviding university benchmarks for improvement. The two surveys overlap on questionsregarding perception of professors (within the classroom and their personal treatment ofstudents), perception of unfair treatment with respect to gender and ethnicity/race, the contactsand interactions with fellow students, and the students’ perceptions of the field of engineering.This work analyzes the two data sets individually and collectively to determine what impactsstudent persistence (including factors such as major, gender, student-student and student-facultyinteractions, and career opportunities). The results are analyzed to show possible ways to changethe university climate and to improve retention.
