enrollment of femalestudents, with 40% of the class population. The popularity of the course is evident from thesubstantial waitlist of students trying to enroll, which suggests a growing interest in flowvisualization and its artistic applications. This suggests a promising new approach to increase theparticipation of women in Mechanical Engineering (ME) or Aerospace Engineering byaddressing the traditional perception of the discipline. Mechanical Engineering is often viewedas a dry and overly utilitarian field, focused on solid mechanics such as gears and levers, whichmay deter women from pursuing it. As a result, the enrollment of women in engineering hasremained low nationwide, at less than 14% of the undergraduate student population over the
