A small focusgroup was conducted with two school counselors from two different e4usa schools in Spring2022. Participants reported constraints in how the counseling process occurs as a barrier toinforming students and others about the course. This suggests a need for further support ofcounselors to effect systemic change and to address common barriers within counselingsystems. These findings suggest that enhancing the understanding of engineering careers andcapacity building of school counselors could be an effective

andindustry. For example, while women earn 58% of undergraduate degrees across all disciplines,they account for only 24% of undergraduate students in engineering [1], [2]. Research suggeststhat this is partly due to women voluntarily choosing not to pursue an engineering educationbecause their main motivators (e.g., personal fulfillment, societal benefit) do not match theirperception of engineering careers [3], [4]. Consistent with these assertions, women earn an equalproportion of undergraduate degrees in certain engineering subfields that have an explicit goal ofimproving societal outcomes (e.g., biomedical engineering) [2].
