“…in relation to sociocultural norms established across the engineering field. Moreover, existing work in this area is often generalized to all or multiple engineering majors (Allie et al, 2009;Dryburgh, 1999;McNair et al, 2011;Meyers et al, 2010;Tonso, 2007), which is problematic due to research indicating nuanced differences across engineering disciplinary cultures (Murzi et al, 2014(Murzi et al, , 2015. To gain a more holistic understanding of students' professional identity formation within their chosen engineering disciplines, more research is needed to examine the interrelations and interactions across established theories and frameworks (Hitlin, 2003;Morelock, 2017;Rodriguez et al, 2018;Stets & Burke, 2000;Tonso, 2014) while also considering students' evolving conceptions of who they will become as engineers.…”
