A review of the literature summarizing approaches torecruitment and retention of women and the role of engineering identity can be found in a priorpublication [2].Our current project studied the impact of the 2019 conference on various aspects of engineeringidentity in the participants through pre- and post-conference surveys. Our work draws heavilyfrom the following prior work, which indicates that identity in general, and engineering identitymore specifically, is a multi-dimensional construct that is influenced by many factorsand frequently dependent on context. Before describing influences in engineering identity, it isimportant to note

Ithas also been reported that computing occupations are projected to increase, to nearly half amillion new jobs; which is by far more than any other group in STEM (U.S. Bureau of LaborStatistics).
