Sallai, Gabriella M.; Bahnson, Matthew; Shanachilubwa, Kanembe; Berdanier, Catherine G. P. – Journal of Engineering Education, 2023
Background: While previous work in higher education documents the impact of high tuition costs of attending graduate school as a key motivator in attrition decisions, in engineering, most graduate students are fully funded on research fellowships, indicating there are different issues causing individuals to consider departure. There has been…
