fall semester of 2019especially to promote students’ problem-solving skills because problem-solving is consideredas the essential capacity in ABET accreditation [2].Problem-based learning (PBL) has proved an effective way of enhancing problem-solvingskills in many different disciplines, especially in medicine and engineering. Problem-basedLearning was first introduced at McMaster University in Canada, a pedagogy that stressesstudent-centered, small group learning (with teachers acting as facilitators) and organizedaround problems as specific attributes [3]. Since then, it has been widely used all around theworld, and there are many successful cases of applying PBL in professional education.Howard S. Barrows mentioned in his article that “PBL

We know comparatively little about whichspecific characteristics of postsecondary institutions are associated with women’srepresentation in STEM fields overall (but see [13], [26]), never mind specific STEM fields,such as CS&E. Our approach is also informed by Fox et al.’s [13] recent work, whichsuggests that gendered organizational dynamics and initiatives play out vividly at the sub-unitlevel (college/department/program), depending on the centrality and status of a particular unitwithin the academic institution.
