Engagement And A Sense Of Belonging In Kinesiology Undergraduate Students, Gema Arreguin, Evelyn Castellon, Sarah Dunn
International Journal of Exercise Science: Conference Proceedings
A student's sense of belonging may promote success and retention during their undergraduate experience and could be influenced by co-curricular engagement (participation in community events organized by the home department). Even more important, an institution with a satellite “branch” campus offering less co-curricular events may see less sense of belonging in those particular students.

METHODS: Public university students (18+ years) in California were recruited for an IRB approved Qualtrics survey in Spring 2023. Participants were asked …

Applied Learning Experiences, Belonging & Preparedness For Career In Undergraduate Kinesiology Students, Alejandro Campos, Juliana Perez Durazo, Sarah L. Dunn Ph.D
International Journal of Exercise Science: Conference Proceedings
Applied “hands-on'' student learning experiences may help prepare them for future career success. Gaining knowledge on professional tasks, proficiency in job skills, or understanding workplace satisfaction are all factors to be explored prior to embarking on a career in the field/industry. In addition, a student's sense of belonging to their home “major” department when completing their bachelor's degree may be related to positive outcomes and the job market.

PURPOSE: To assess …

Undergraduate Kinesiology Student Involvement In The Department And Sense Of Belonging By Employment Status, Ruby Delgado, Maria Sanchez-Perez, Sarah Dunn

Many undergraduate college students find the need to work either on or off campus in order to pay for their tuition and expenses. It is unknown whether or not employment impacts a students ability to be involved in the department or feel like they belong and not typically reported for Kinesiology programs. PURPOSE: To assess the impact employment had on college students in relation to their sense of belonging and involvement with their home department and to investigate belonging and involvement in Kinesiology students. METHODS: Undergraduate college/university students (18+ years) at a public institution in Southern California were …
