Studies have shown that a chilly climate can have anegative impact on cognitive development and can also influence women’s desire to stay andpersist within a science, technology, engineering, or math (STEM) field. At The Ohio StateUniversity College of Engineering (COE), women are currently 20% of the overallundergraduate student population within the College.Improving women’s retention in engineering fields requires a multifaceted approach. Both directsupport for women, along with the development of allies, are crucial to promoting a long-lasting,positive climate for women studying in this field.

TransitionAbstractPeer mentoring has been shown to be an effective means of improving the retention of women inengineering, but few studies have explored the impact of participation on the development of theleadership abilities of undergraduate women. Transitioning to a leadership mentality as a peermentor has the potential to foster self-efficacy in science, technology, engineering, andmathematics (STEM) and socially stable academic relationships that may be replicated in post-graduate study and/or the workplace. This one-year study explored the experiences of junior andsenior female students in STEM majors (N=11) serving as mentors to first-year students in theWomen in Science and Engineering Honors Program (WISE) at Stony Brook University, a largeresearch

The concept of a course “ecosystem”A conventional way to look at a course is as a piece of a curriculum. It has certain learningobjectives, and if students have achieved them by the end of the academic term, then the coursecan be considered a success. However, there is another, more active, way to view a course: acourse is an opportunity to direct students in their learning. This is a more powerful perspective,because it suggests that students learn by doing, not necessarily following the same path as otherstudents. Also, by following different paths, students can make their own contribution to theinstructor’s

It is clear that gender difference in EQ/SQ ratiowas smaller in STEM majors (1.16 for females vs. 1.02 for males) than in non-STEM majors(1.49 for females vs. 1.12 for males). In engineering majors that had sufficient sample sizes (n >5), the general pattern was that female students had higher EQ/SQ ratios than male students.However, for the three engineering majors with very small sample size (civil engineering,computer/electronic engineering, and engineering technology), the few female students reportedlower EQ/SQ ratios than their male peers (see Table 1).
