ABSTRACT. Concern about the dropout rate in the Physics Department at Université de Montréal led to a four-step research study to provide department decision-makers with information about factors influencing student persistence. A cross-section of students (dropouts and continuing) were interviewed, followed by interviews with a number offaculty and staff. A questionnaire was then developed which was administered to two cohorts of students. Responses were obtained from 82 students. Results from students fromdifferent years and the two administrations showed no significant differences, indicating that student opinions are consistent over time. Students who later dropped out and those who stayed differed in their perception of their skills an...
