In light of the need to both grow and diversify graduate enrollments in computing fields, this quantitative study examined variables associated with students' initial aspirations for computing graduate school as well as how aspirations were sustained or developed over time. Using a longitudinal sample of undergraduate students who enrolled in…

Given the significant need to increase and diversify graduate enrollments within computing fields, it is vital to understand what shapes students' pathways to computing graduate school. This study examines the predictors of undergraduate students' self-confidence in being admitted to computing graduate school among students who enrolled in an…

Mentorship is vital to increasing graduate school access in computing; however, mentorship must be structured in power-conscious, developmental ways to ensure equitable access to and support within computing graduate pathways. I engage a critical quantitative lens to examine mentoring support among undergraduates with reported graduate…

The study of gender differences in Computer Science (CS) has captured the attention of many researchers around the world. Over time, research has revealed that negative stereotypes and 'myths' about the cognitive skills, academic abilities and interests of females in CS do exist, deterring females from entering the field. Thus, this study aims to…

This study was based on a multiple case study of two Predominantly White Institutions. Interviews were conducted with 61 individuals including undergraduate and graduate engineering and computer science majors and recent graduates, faculty, and administrators. This study focuses specifically on how students' experiences with corporate internships,…
