It became so clear tome that I want to help these kinds of people and their communities rather than anything else.[The guest speaker] really inspired me and made my dream more realistic in my mind. He reallyhas done wonderful things with his degree and that’s what I strive to do. My other courses havemade me change my mind throughout the semester just by frustration. My Calculus 2 exam twokilled me and really had me down on myself but my last midterm was spectacular so I believethis semester has taught me to just stay strong and not let one grade get me down and thateventually I will have the privilege of calling myself an Environmental Engineer.

By setting up STEM programs offeredspecifically to young women, young minds are given an opportunity to get hands on experienceas to some of the duties of what a career in engineering could entail, helping clear awayconfusion regarding the field. Programs like these would also offer a kind of support systembetween fellow students and the teacher, helping encourage young women to stay involved in thefield.

home.MethodsThe goal of our research is to shed some more light on the importance of some of the factorsdiscussed above for choosing engineering as a major and to examine their differential and uniqueeffects on the choice of women and men. With this in mind, we surveyed 806 freshmen andsophomore students at a public university, enrolled in biology, engineering and business classes,and asked them a series of questions about their choice of a major. Out of the 806 students whoparticipated, 752 provided complete responses to all survey questions and their demographics arereflected in Table 2.

On the one hand, the scarcity of previously conducted research on thistopic has opened a niche for this type of work. On the other hand, studying the region’s rapidsocio-economic transformations may shed some light regarding the vital role of women in non-Western contexts, particularly when it comes to encouraging participation in traditionally male-dominated fields.Attracting “every young mind to engineering” is, for UNESCO, closely related to achieving theMillennium Development Goals

In fact, one study showedthat 90% of students who graduated from an engineering program had declared engineering astheir major prior to attending the institution, regardless of gender [12]. In other words, studentsrarely transfer into an engineering program from another major. If a student does not come to theinstitution in mind, they will rarely change to an engineering program, often due to perceptionsof engineering being too hard for most students [12]. This highlights the need for creating asense of self-efficacy in young women to pursue engineering. If they have not made that
