She received a CAREER award in 2010 and a PECASE award in 2012 for her project researching the stories of undergraduate engineering women and men of color and white women. She has received ASEE-ERM’s best paper award for her CAREER research, and the Denice Denton Emerging Leader award from the Anita Borg Institute, both in 2013. She was co-PI of Purdue’s ADVANCE program from 2008-2014, focusing on the underrepresentation of women in STEM faculty positions.

LGBTQIA+ CommunityThroughout this paper, we reference the term “LGBTQIA+,” which is an umbrella acronym usedto describe any person who does not identify with heterosexual and cisgender norms (Gold,2019). Recent research on the LGBTQIA+ student experience shows a growing interest on thistopic, both within and outside of the field of engineering education (Lange et al., 2019). Withinthis encouraging trend, the disciplines that have placed the greatest sense of urgency onunderstanding this community’s experiences appear to have been higher education, psychology,and queer and gender studies. Research from these fields have shown that LGBTQIA+ studentsexperience heightened levels of verbal and physical violence, harassment, and discrimination. Asa

Indeed, persons with disabilities are equally likely to enter engineeringmajors, but graduate with engineering degrees at lower rates. Similarly, only 65% of personswith disabilities who have an engineering or science degree are employed in STEM, versus 85%of persons without disabilities [9].
