masculinity ideology had higherodds of engineering aspirations. On the other hand, both boys and girls who haveinternalized more conventional femininity ideology regarding objectification of thefemale body were less likely to report engineering aspirations. Although this findingfluctuated in significance as we moved through the model building, the direction iscontrary to previous analyses completed with the first wave of study15. This discrepancypoints to the need for additional investigation; with our upcoming third and final wave ofdata collection we will be able to test for developmental changes in gender ideology thatcould explain differences using longitudinal methods21 which would increase the powerto detect associations.

For instance,although engineering jobs are estimated to grow 11% in the coming years, high-school studentinterest is stagnant [7] and about one-third of first-time freshmen engineering majors leave thefield [8]. Therefore, finding successful strategies to increase the number of STEM graduates iscritical. With 50% of graduates having attended a community college previously [9], communitycolleges play a large role in the educational experiences of many college graduates in scienceand engineering fields.

He derived this suggestion from his broad education inengineering and his hobby of reading about innovative technologies. In Wylie’s observations,undergraduates tend to excel at this open-mindedness and ability to make novel connections.
