Since 1980, femalestudents have continued to distance themselves from STEM courses [1]. According to theNational Center for Education Statistics, 35% of STEM bachelor degrees were conferred towomen in 2014. Of this 35%, 19.8% were engineering bachelor degrees [2]. In 2004, 20.5% ofengineering bachelor degrees were awarded to women [3]. This data shows that women areearning less engineering bachelor degrees and there has not been much progress since 2004.The issue of few women in STEM derives from STEM stereotypes and the gender gap
