The goal of the research site is consistent with the goalof the NSF-REU program: to provide promising undergraduate students with a complete,mentored research experience, to better prepare these students for graduate school orprofessional pursuits and encourage them to pursue a career in science [15]. The impact ofundergraduate research experiences have been well documented [16], [17], [18], [19].

A 2015 USNews and World Report article notes that, despite a national focus supported by federalgovernment funding to encourage women and minorities to study science, technology,engineering and math (STEM), the STEM workforce is no more diverse than it was in 2001.The discussion of the lack of women in STEM academia follows the same discussion as the lackof women in STEM.

In addition, engineering has 78.6% malestudent body2. The interaction between student gender and instructor gender may also influenceSET. This paper will provide a brief overview of research into the effect of professor (andstudent) gender on the SET scores, and briefly explore recommendations for mitigating theeffects of bias.SET is intended to quantify teaching effectiveness. However, it is not clear that this is what SETsolely (or even primarily) measures. For example, one study showed a weak but positivecorrelation between the

The study used a combination of meta-analyticand structural modeling methods to develop input correlation matrices for path analytical tests ofthe Social Cognitive Career Theory (SCCT) academic performance model developed by Lent,Brown, and Hackett (1994). SCCT seeks to predict how academic interests are formed and themeans by which academic performance is achieved. College GPA and retention were used asperformance criterion in the model. SCCT is based on the premise that general cognitive talent(i.e. academic preparedness), as represented by a students’ standardized test scores and highschool GPA, impacts college GPA and retention. This is shown in Brown’s study to happen bothdirectly and indirectly via mediating paths through a

. Julie P Martin, Clemson University Julie P. Martin, Ph.D. is an associate professor of Engineering and Science Education at Clemson Univer- sity. Her research agenda has focused on diversity and inclusion in engineering education. In particular, her NSF-funded CAREER work has investigated how social relations—operationalized as social capi- tal—influence student academic decisions and success, especially for underrepresented and underserved students. Her CAREER research supports the need for continued proactive outreach, educational and support systems that have the potential to form ”resource-rich” networks in which students receive infor- mation and resources in routine exchanges.
