Predictive ModelNext we seek to develop a statistical formula that will provide an estimate of a student’s time tograduation, in semesters, based on whether the student engages in some of the behaviorsanalyzed in this paper and in our earlier work: - Citizenship and residency status, - Whether the student will be a student-athlete at any time during their studies, - Whether s/he will receive a poor grade (D, F, or Withdrew), AP credit

increasing their representation in the non-traditional fieldsof study and are becoming more knowledgeable of technology’s multi-facet components,there still remains significant under-representation of females in areas such as IndustrialTechnology. Nelson (2004) 33 indicated that lack of female representation in technologymay be due to a threefold purpose: “(1) women of the world lack knowledge oftechnology, (2) technology alienates and often exploits women, and (3) decisions abouttechnology are made without women’s voices” (p.2). This is reflected from Mayer’s(1995)27assertion that females comprise only 30 percent of the industrial workforce. Thisglobally illustrates moderate but consistent initiatives. The U. S.

What arethe difficulties that female engineers have encountered in their transition from universityto workplace? And what are the perceptions of female regarding the essential skills for asuccessful engineering career?

[22]. During World War II (1939-45),women engaged in roles that were previously exclusive to males although women did not benefitequally [34]. The 1960’s and 1970’s led to the creation of law and programs to promote equityand challenge gender-related disparities including the 1964 Civil Rights Act, the Title IX of theEducation Amendments Act of 1972, and the Women’s Educational Equity Act of 1974 to namea few. Nonetheless, these women scientists continued to bring “modest but essential change tohigher education in the years 1972-1985” [35, p. 39].In the Nineteenth and Twentieth century, women studying or working in engineering wereperceived as outcasts.

Family, cultural, economic and social factors influence this under-representation, factorswhich tend to reduce women´s self-concept on learning and ability in this area. Women have lowerself-concept in the STEM disciplines than do men, consequently the dropout rate for women is doublethat of men [3].An intervention was designed aiming to promote and increase self-concept in learning capabilities infirst-year engineering students in Computer Engineering and Industrial Engineering.
