of education is likely tolead to a career in an engineering related field, there is a clear need to understand the factorswhich influence female students’ decisions to enroll in higher education engineering courses.There are many influences on students’ choices to pursue specific career paths. For example,how students conceive a particular discipline or career will influence this decision, as what theybelieve it to involve will likely affect their interest in engaging with it. In engineering, studentsoften have misconceptions regarding what it means to be an engineer and the Draw-an-EngineerTest (DAET) has frequently been used to investigate these misconceptions.Studies using DAET have found that young students typically conceive engineers

PoliciesKindness in teaching can begin when a faculty member considers the rules for the class,articulated on the syllabus. Being clear about the expectations in the course by providing adetailed syllabus can be viewed as an act of kindness [59]. For example, there was no penalty instudents’ perceptions of instructor support even when fairly restrictive policies were articulated[60]. Inviting students to attend office hours, explaining policies for office hours, and extendingthe potential to meet with students beyond pre-established meeting times are all practices thatembody kindness.

The hypothesis drawn in this case is that thereare factors in the academic system that increase the sense of belonging in URM students whichcan create a positive loop that led to persistence.Finally, we use the factors in the category of faculty-student interaction. The literature shows thatmentorship increases success in graduate students, especially if the mentor is from the sameethnicity as the URM student.

Mentorshipis an exceptionally effective method that is important for both the mentor and the mentee aslearning usually occurs on both ends. The CSRL implements mentorship by consistently providing equal opportunities forinvolvement regardless of the amount of experience an individual may have, or which genderthey might be. New students meet regularly with a faculty mentor, but are also encouraged toseek peer mentors. Almost immediately, mentees are given opportunities to work with theirmentors in helping
