why you are using it.Although some skeptics will continue to ask the question, “why do we even need estimationwhen nowadays, we can write programs to calculate nearly anything?”. In some instances,usually when working in teams, estimating is about creating a shared understanding of a givenrequirement, and keeping the big picture in mind. By keeping things simple, and not gettingcaught up in precise details of the final results; estimation puts everyone on the same page towork toward a common goal. Although the estimates will not always be exactly right, they willbe consistent.5. Future WorkThis paper is part of an ongoing work that includes additional estimation techniques andexamples that are relevant to engineers and entrepreneurship. Some

home.MethodsThe goal of our research is to shed some more light on the importance of some of the factorsdiscussed above for choosing engineering as a major and to examine their differential and uniqueeffects on the choice of women and men. With this in mind, we surveyed 806 freshmen andsophomore students at a public university, enrolled in biology, engineering and business classes,and asked them a series of questions about their choice of a major. Out of the 806 students whoparticipated, 752 provided complete responses to all survey questions and their demographics arereflected in Table 2.

Minorities in Engineering
AbstractStatistics data show that there is a huge gender gap in science, technology, engineering, and math(STEM) workforces in the United States. In order to encourage more women to work in theSTEM fields, the first step is to attract women to pursue the STEM majors. Robotics provides aneasy, fun, and exciting environment for young minds, while exposing them to technologies at thesame time. This paper describes our collaboration with an all-girl high school in offering theirstudents a year-long robotics workshop. The motivation of this collaboration is two-folded. Onone side, the school administration is interested in bringing engineering and technologies to theircurriculum, which is currently missing. From our side, we would like to motivate and

I gained confidence in having good balanced values towards underrepresented groups. I learned a lot from this experience about the prevalence of women being disenfranchised in the engineering environment and about what it means to have privileges as a white male, and what I can do to help. Whole new insight about how women feel, what things are inappropriate. I still have a lot I need to work on. Experience has opened my mind to a lot.

Using information provided by respondents, we investigated how views differ based on level of experience or knowledge associated with I&E as part of engineering education? 2. What role does the community think I&E should have as part of undergraduate engineering education?
