Given its ongoing struggles at attaining demographic diversity and its key role in nations' economies, the engineering workforce receives considerable attention from researchers and policymakers. Yet, prior studies and STEM recruitment initiatives have often underemphasized the variety among available engineering jobs and careers. It therefore…

Background: The wellbeing of university students is deteriorating, highlighting a critical role for institutions to better support student wellbeing. Objective: The goal of this work is to determine whether a final-year undergraduate wellbeing science module, inspired by recent theoretical developments, improved wellbeing during the COVID-19…

This study aims to predict accounting students' inclination toward a career in accounting in Indonesia by integrating the Social Cognitive Career Theory (SCCT) and the Theory of Reasoned Action (TRA). The research relies on primary data obtained through an online, closed-ended questionnaire. We employ Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) for the…

However, their definition and differences have not yet been explained to students sufficiently in classes as well as textbooks. Polymerase chain…

Student engagement and student experience are two initiatives that higher education institutions usually pursue. However, the relationship between these two initiatives needs to be examined more adequately. Thus, this study assesses the effect of student engagement on the student experience. A survey research design was used to conduct the study.…
