Abstract
High-impact practices (HIPs), such as undergraduate research, internships, and senior-capstone projects, are prominent within the academy. Scholars surmise aspects of HIP quality (e.g., student effort, peer collaboration, and faculty interaction) are related to desired outcomes for students (e.g., engagement, GPA, and satisfaction). Using data from the 2015 administration of the National Survey of Student Engagement, respondents who participated in these three HIPs were asked additional questions regarding quality of experience. Results from this study indicate that increased levels of expectations, faculty interaction, and real-world application are related to increases in outcomes; however, these relationships are not consistent among underserved populations.
