groups (such as womenand racial minorities) can help solve the numbers problem and can improve the quality of workbeing done [7], [8]. This requires both expanded efforts to engage new students and a criticalanalysis of the STEM ‘pipeline’. Specifically, the fact that many students report early interest inSTEM but drop out as undergraduate students, graduate students, or early career professionalsindicates that this is more than an issue of early recruitment, but a more serious flaw in the‘pipeline’ [9]–[11].As a result, many methods attempting to engage and retain a wider array of students have beensuggested and tested [12]–[14]. Key among them is the idea of ‘identity’, or the extent to whichstudents identify with their field and feel that

In addition, career certaintymodels allowed us to investigate how experiences at the undergraduate level influenced careerinterest in computer science. Questions included prompts to reflect on environmental andpersonal factors that sustained or diminished interest in continuing within a computer sciencedegree and ultimately a career. Significant results suggest that females and males have a similarundergraduate experience and our results indicate that across institutions

Insteadwe postulate that such differences inform students’ socialization into engineering and, as a result,their patterns of co-curricular participation. Weidman defines socialization as “the process bywhich individuals acquire the knowledge, skills, and dispositions that make them more or lesseffective members of their society” [5].
