The overlap, duplication, and disconnection in diversitywork among these many bodies is unavoidable. It represents dichotomies between academia

These findingshighlight the importance and the necessity of implementing actions that promote high-qualityeducation free from gender biases.Keywords: gender equity, engineering education, HEIIntroductionAccording to UNESCO, gender equality contributes to economic, social, cultural, and politicaldevelopment [1]. Currently, there are areas in which women are underrepresented, necessitatingspecific actions to reduce gender gaps. The STEM fields, Science, Technology, Engineering, andMathematics, are most affected by these gaps. For instance, IT (Information Technology)companies seek to hire women, but there remains a significant gap in their participation in thesecareers [2], making the hiring process more challenging.

tenure-track faculty level (Fig. 1A) [2], [5]. This decline in female representation at thefaculty level is also observed broadly throughout science, technology, engineering, andmathematics (STEM) fields in general (Fig. 1B) [6], [7]. Furthermore, this lack of representationis not limited to academia; while 46% of STEM doctoral degrees are awarded to women, only32% of STEM positions in government and industry are occupied by women [7]. Therefore, evenin cases where women eagerly pursue a STEM education, they disproportionately choose not toutilize this education after graduation. This is not only detrimental to the women themselves, butalso to maximizing the potential of the national STEM workforce.Figure 1: Female Representation in Biomedical

Like other organizations, institutions of higher learning reflect and normalize disconnectsbetween the presumed role expectations of faculty members depending on their social culturalidentity [68, 69]. The presumed role expectations and measures of adequacy are often inequitableand oppositional to challenging or transforming the paradigms that exacerbate the role strains ofwomen and in particular intersectional women [31, 68, 69] who are in disciplines within science,technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM).Research Questions For this paper, the

In the United States, the STEM job-growth rateoverall is more than twice the average rate for the total workforce [1, p. 201], with most jobopenings in computer science and engineering (CS&E) [2]. The limited representation ofwomen in these fields is apparent: Women comprise just 28 percent of workers in science andengineering fields overall, and even less in CS&E fields [3].These labor-force dynamics also reflect trends in U.S. higher education: Although women’spostsecondary attainment rates exceed men’s, women remain

This figure is even lower in specific engineering specialties, as reported by Zapataand Truyol (2022) [6]. According to the 2019 European Union report "She Figures”, only 15% ofwomen in STEM occupy high-ranking positions, compared to 22% of those present in highereducation [7].
