, without considering STEM support within peercontexts. Moreover, most of the research that examines young women’s engineering identity hasbeen at the post-secondary level, when young women have already entered an engineering major.Therefore, our study is relatively unique in considering the experiences of a group of youngwomen in high school who have professed a commitment to engineering. We also make asignificant contribution by distinguishing between the support offered by girls and boys, with thegoal of understanding which may be more impactful in bolstering the engineering identity andfuture plans of young women in SWENext. Specifically, we investigate the following researchquestions:(1) Do SWENext young women receive similar levels of peer

, specifically the University of Texas at Dallas andTexas A&M. In these early reciprocating activities the idea was that each school award abaccalaureate degree to the student at the completion of a five-year plan, three years atTWU and two calendar years at the cooperative university. Under such a plan the studentwould have degree in mathematics from TWU and a degree in engineering from theselected university. To quote the TWU 2003-2005 catalog, “The dual degree program in mathematics and engineering combines the strengths of Texas Woman’s University and the University of Texas at Dallas (UTD) or Texas A&M University at College Station (TAMU) to enable our Proceedings of the 2004 ASEE Gulf-Southwest

Our scientific discoveries are increasing at a fast pace, but now there is less time between a scientific discovery and its adaptation to useful products. For example there are numerous application in engineering and medicine of laser.

In addition, elementary students are often asked towork in teams, requiring them to engage in difficult collaborative work involving roles andrelationships, planning, gathering and sharing information, generating ideas, and resolvingconflict [1]. Engineering design tasks require students to engage with both the technical and thesocial as they navigate the complexities of collaborative decision-making. Oftentimes, decisionpoints are where these technical and social aspects of engineering come to a head; students mustwork collaboratively to choose a solution, while balancing the disciplinary ideas relevant to theirdesign problem.
