in STEM careers is because the culture ofSTEM, especially engineering and analytical areas, is a limiting culture devoid of what femalesseems to prefer, empathy and social caring [8]-[10].However, measuring constructs such as interest is complex because of the interactive anddynamic nature of constructs with one another, that the constructs are usually self-reported, andthat few standardized measurement terms exist [11]. STEM can be considered as one contentarea or four content areas. We often ask our students to describe STEM. They usually answer bystating the letters S, T, E, and M stand for science, technology, engineering and mathematics, butdo not state any concept of what “STEM” means. The term STEM is thought to originate withthe

Students oftenfind their projects and industry advisors while they are completing the co-op experience.Sometimes engineers within the community volunteer their time as advisors and bring their ownprojects. Other typical projects involve design of a new campus building or development of anempty property lot within the city.

Analternative hypothesis is that there are more women and minorities starting civil or structuralengineering studies now than there were in the past, so the graduate student diversity willincrease as these students continue through the pipeline. However, nationwide data shows that, ifanything, women and minority representation among students in science and engineeringdisciplines has decreased slightly over the past 10 years2,5, making this hypothesis unlikely.Table 1.

The introduction of individuals into the industry that are moreinclined to act collaboratively could act as a catalyst for change.Purpose of the StudyGender diversity has been connected to increased profits across multiple industries.8 Thesefindings have led to the creation of the value-in-diversity perspective, which contends that adiverse workforce has a distinct benefit to business.8 However, these benefits are not limited toincreased earnings.8 For example, there is evidence that the inclusion of women in CM maydecrease conflict and increase collaboration.
