Examining Undergraduates’ Departure from STEM: Findings from a National Study Kevin Eagan, Ph.D. Improving Undergraduate STEM Education Workshop Association of American Universities May 22, 2012

Overview of Project Following entering cohort of students in 2004 Baseline sample: 63,000 aspiring STEM majors across 350 institutions Multiple surveys 2004 Freshman Survey 2005 Your First College Year Survey 2008 College Senior Survey 2011 Post-Baccalaureate Survey Merged with IPEDS, National Student Clearinghouse, Registrar, MCAT, College Board, and Faculty Survey data Qualitative data collection Introductory STEM classroom mixed methods study STEM Pioneers qualitative data collection

The Role of Introductory STEM Courses Resistance to innovation – both students and faculty Authentic lab experiences – identifying as a scientist Faculty accessibility cues and ethic of care Engaging pedagogy Affirming student participation and engagement

Persistence in Science through the First Year Prior preparation and achievement* Identifying as a scientist Research opportunities Science clubs Early academic success

STEM Persistence through Four Years Prior preparation* Pre-med phenomenon Identifying as a scientist Undergraduate research STEM-related clubs Full-time work during college

The Role of Institutional Selectivity Positively related to degree completion (any field) Negatively related to STEM persistence Sorting twice Admission to the institution Acceptance/admission into the major

Three Key Takeaways Innovation in introductory STEM courses Identifying Scaling up Undergraduate research opportunities Being more targeted in allocation of institutional grants Scaling existing effective programs Institutional selectivity – addressing institutional capacity for STEM
