In 2012, women constituted just 12% of engineering graduates at theuniversity, while minorities constituted just 4%. In an effort to boost the enrollment, performance,and persistence of underrepresented students, the university applied for and received an NSF S-STEM grant to integrate engineering, biology, and marine biology students into an existingprogram supporting underrepresented students on campus. The combined program, known asSTILAS, provides participants with a $10,000 NSF scholarship, supplemented by the university,as well as dedicated tutoring and advising, and co-curricular activities such as field trips and

Most current systems engineering practices do not fully address the uniquecharacteristics of mission engineering, addressing the end-to-end mission as the ‘system’ andextending further beyond data exchange between the individual systems for cross-cuttingfunctions, controls, and trades across the systems.Mission engineering differs from the established term of mission analysis in that the latter onlyaddresses examination of current operational and system

However, these programs,although achieving relative success, involved students with a pre-existing interest in engineering-related careers. Also, these programs contained a very low part of female population of highschool in the U.S. [28].Similarly, the governments of other countries have recognized the importance of increasinginterest in the field of engineering and have developed policies to motivate women to work in thefield.
