. Labor forceparticipation rates have also increased among racial and ethnic minorities. For example,African-Americans’ labor force participation rate increased from 60% in 1973 to 64% in 2005while Hispanics’ participation rate increased from 60% to 68% for the same years27. The U.S.Department of Labor reported in 2001 that women and minorities now comprise 60% of the U.S.workforce – a shift consistent with the prediction made by the Hudson Institute in 198718,41.These population changes and growing concerns about American competitiveness reinvigoratedan interest in “diversity,” particularly in science and engineering (S&E).

Some common reasons for women not to choose engineering aredepicted to be lack of suitable role models6, sex-stereotyped and/or negative view on scienceand scientists7 and masculine content and climate of technical institutes8. The impacts of old-fashioned stereotypes are surprisingly strong not only in the traditional industry, but also inthe field of ICT, where most girls drop out of the track latest after secondary school level:Even if

. This research study conducted at a PacificNorthwest university sought to understand the extent to which assumptions about climate at theundergraduate and graduate level are true. The study found that while undergraduate andgraduate women in engineering deal with some of the same climate issues, the contextualdifferences relative to faculty interactions and classroom experiences were significant in howclimate is perceived. The differences in perceptions about climate speak to the fact that a one-size solution does not fit all, and policy changes must account for the contextual differences inthe education of female undergraduate and graduate students.IntroductionFirst coined by Hall & Sandler in the early 1980’s to describe the classroom

This paper uses the large, multi-institution dataset MIDFIELD (Multiple-Institution Database for InvestigatingEngineering Longitudinal Development) which contains records of over 75,000 studentsin engineering during the years of 1988 through 1998. Ohland and his colleagues [4, 7]determined that eight-semester persistence is highly predictive of six-year graduationrates. But, using eight-semester persistence can underreport the persistence of women tograduation. In general, it is shown that paths of persistence are nonlinear, gendered andracialized, so that it‟s

At the first school I was a tutor, and really enjoyed that. Since I‟m studying engineering, I just don‟t want to be a teacher in high school, and didn‟t understand how to become a professor. FemProf coordinators have given me seminars and how about grad school works, and I have talked to them individually about their experiences in the doctoral degree, as the doctoral degree sounds like a super-hard thing but it‟s actually not as scary as it seems.Program directors highlight ways women can support one another in their

. Page 14.1111.2Here we should briefly note that there are several different definitions of multidisciplinaryresearch [4], [5], [6]. The terms multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary are often usedinterchangeably, but Borrego & Newswander [3] have provided an excellent discussion of theseterms in the context of engineering education research. They define multidisciplinarycollaborations as those where “collaborators come together to work on a problem, each bringinghis or her own expertise and unique contribution. There is limited exchange of information inthis approach … collaborators leave the project without having learned much about the otherdiscipline(s)” (p.124). On the other hand interdisciplinary collaborations are defined as

]. Thedifference was that the second study tracked not whether the woman was “employed full-time”but if she was employed in an engineering job. Thus, even seemingly simple constructs like“persistence” or “retention” for engineering women requires careful thought match data tointended research questions.Another troublesome issue of definition is what population of women to study. Some researchhas been focused exclusively on engineering, but much research is generalized to STEM(science, technology, engineering, and math), or just SET (science, engineering, and technology),S&E (science and engineering), or Tech (technology or high-technology). Some studies defineSTEM to include all the social sciences and some studies include all technology

Future research should incorporate other methodologies toexplore what causes such decreases in women undergraduates’ engineering identity.

Short-term plans include continuing the cohort program for subsequent years. In addition,as an extension to the program, plans are underway to embed it in the university curriculum inthe COE through the creation of a class based on the existing model. Current students in thecohort will be used as teaching assistants for the class and future teaching assistants will comefrom the class. Collectively, these efforts are expected to create meaningful and lasting changefor all students in the College of Engineering.Bibliography1 Litzler, E., Jaros, S
