Women, often, are more likely to give upor not start an academic career due to the stress involved and the perceivedlack of support from both academia and society. Women were also more likelyto seek support for mental health needs, seek out information about supportservices, and generally admit to having mental health needs (Hyun et al. 2006,p. 255, 257). This also means that men who may be experiencing mental dis-tress are not as likely to seek out support and could continue to suffer

Recent research hasshown that student interest and commitment to social responsibility declines as students’progress through their academic career [2] [17]. Furthermore, although the majority ofengineering curriculum includes considerable and meaningful ethics education, it often excludesdiscussion and connection to larger societal issues and social justice content [18].The importance of social justice has been echoed by many engineering organizations,corporations, and businesses through their mission statements, core values, diversitycommitments, and strategic initiatives.

Once you have decidedon the kind of research you will pursue, recruiting students is the next critical step.Experienced researchers know that the students who perform best in class are not necessarily thesame ones who will excel at research. Initiative counts for more in research, as does the abilityto address problems that are not well formed. At the beginning of their career, graduate studentsare knowledge consumers, with a need to learn what is the state of the art in their discipline.Later they become knowledge generators, contributing results to their research group and thecommunity at large.

While most of the research ondiversity in computing focuses on gender and race/ethnicity, some interpret diversity in otherways. Undergraduate students are stakeholders in the assessment of cybersecurity as a diverseand inclusive subfield of computing--as they may or may not consider these concepts as theymake curricular and career decisions. A goal of the study is to enrich our understanding ofdiversity perspectives in the field, and so we sought complexity of interpretation over anarrowing or codifying of viewpoints.
