Direct linkZou, Tracy X. P.; Susanto, Joyceline; Wahab, Aisha Ajmal; Hong, Narin; Chiu, Christine S. T.; Leung, Lily Y. Y. – Higher Education Research and Development, 2023
Undergraduate research (UR) as a high-impact practice has been increasingly embedded in the curriculum. However, there is a limited understanding of how undergraduates make sense of their research experiences amid an absence of student voice in the literature. This study investigated what students perceived as significant UR experiences through…

Jillian Seniuk Cicek; Robyn Paul; Patricia Sheridan – European Journal of Engineering Education, 2024
In Canada, formal structures for advancing engineering education research (EER), including graduate programmes, funding, and career pathways, are uncommon. However, an active informal EER community exists. Using the Identity Trajectory Framework, we designed an exploratory basic interpretive qualitative study to learn how 21 graduate students…

Ailie McDowall; Fabiane Ramos – Australian Educational Researcher, 2024
In Australia, only two-thirds of doctoral students finish their degrees, with underrepresented students completing at even lower rates. Students who successfully complete still experience many challenges throughout their degrees. In this narrative literature review, we use "preparation and readiness for the doctorate" as a framework to…

Roman Christiaens; Heather Haeger; Sy Simms; Allison BrckaLorenz – Studies in Graduate and Postdoctoral Education, 2025
Purpose: Graduate students employed in graduate teaching and research assistantship positions have a unique experience of the institution because of their status as student-employees. Graduate assistants (GAs) face specific challenges around their well-being as they navigate various relationships and environments throughout their educational…

Muhammad Zaka Asif; Chaitya Jain; Erin L. Dolan – SAGE Open, 2024
International students comprise over 50% of the graduate student population in the life sciences in the US, over 70% of whom are Asian. Research that aims to understand international students' experiences has often treated Asian students as a monolith, discounting significant cultural and historical differences between regions in Asia that may…

Spacey, Adam; Harvey, Orlanda; Casey, Chloe – Journal of Further and Higher Education, 2021
Research exploring both the general experiences of postgraduate research students when interacting with gatekeepers and how this affects their progress and emotional resilience is currently lacking. Consequently, this study aims to explore the experience of postgraduate researchers interacting with gatekeepers to develop an understanding of both…

In-person undergraduate research experiences (UREs) promote students' integration into careers in life science research. In 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic prompted institutions hosting summer URE programs to offer them remotely, raising questions about whether undergraduates who participate in remote research can experience scientific integration and…

Jon Woodend; Maisha M. Syeda; Sylvie Roy – Journal of Further and Higher Education, 2024
The peer-review process used in most academic journals is critical for curating evidence-based knowledge. Although many graduate programmes expect students to engage in the research process, these programmes often do not mandate formal training for the publication process. With few studies examining the graduate student experience in the…

Rebecca S. Friesen; Adriana D. Cimetta – Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 2024
Attracting and retaining students in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics majors, particularly those who are underrepresented, is a national concern. While undergraduate research experiences have been shown to increase retention and engagement, inequities in access exacerbate disparities. Understanding what hinders or facilitates the…

Sydney B. Basford – ProQuest LLC, 2021
The primary purpose of this qualitative narrative study was to explore the lived experiences of international PhD students who used academic English literacy during their research for their theses/dissertations. The second purpose of this study was to identify ways international PhD students mitigated academic language challenges for their…

Shilan Dargahi; Jessica Horne; Susan Smith – International Journal for Students as Partners, 2024
To engage students with academic research is recognised as a high-impact activity that supports the development of valuable critical thinking skills. Various approaches have been developed to promote student research both in and outside the curriculum. By incorporating the perspectives of both students and academics, this qualitative study…

Syeda, Maisha; Woodend, Jon; Liu, Jingzhou; Roy, Sylvie – International Journal of Teaching and Learning in Higher Education, 2020
Graduate programs typically expect students to publish their scholarly work; however, few researchers have investigated their experiences in publishing. What literature does exist suggests that mentorship through co-authorship is helpful in supporting the development of emerging scholars. Importantly, there were no studies exploring the…

Joseph Jeyaraj, Joanna; Too, Wei Keong; Lasito, Eni Ermawati – Higher Education Research and Development, 2022
At postgraduate level, success often depends on the ability to produce quality academic writing. To develop a framework to support postgraduate research writing, we explored the writing experiences of twenty-four postgraduate students from non-native English-speaking backgrounds. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with these participants,…

Judge, Jasmeet; Lannon, Heidi J. L.; Stofer, Kathryn A.; Matyas, Corene J.; Lanman, Brandon; Leissing, J. J.; Rivera, Nicole; Norton, Heather; Hom, Bobby – Journal of STEM Outreach, 2022
Two-year community college (CC) students face many barriers for recruitment and retention into Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) fields and vertical transfer to 4-year universities (4YUs). Experiential learning, mentoring, and cohort building are effective mechanisms for increasing STEM recruitment and retention, and close…
