Within each theme there was evidence that the participants’secondary educational experiences both aided and created obstacles in their pursuits. Thefinding from this study speak to the dynamic nature of how educational and environmentalexperiences can strengthen or weaken a woman’s resolve to continue in the field of engineering.Implications for future research, practice, and policy are discussed.Keywords: engineering, women, STEM education, social cognitive career theoryIntroduction The Bureau of Labor predicts that Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics(STEM) related employment is projected to have a growth of more than

The purpose of theconferences is to encourage girls to take more math and science in high school by exposing themto hands-on activities and role models in the areas of science, technology, engineering andmathematics (STEM). This paper is based on interview data from 22 high school girls whobetween 2005 and 2006 participated in one-to-one interviews and small group discussions.These 22
