understanding user needs is clear inmost any definition. The Accreditation Board of Engineering and Technology currently definesdesign as “the process of devising a system, component, or process to meet desired needs,” [8].This definition is currently being revised as part of a larger ABET update. Sheppard’s succinctdefinition is that engineers “scope, generate, evaluate, and realize ideas” [9]. Dym, et al., definedesign as “Engineering design is a systematic, intelligent process in which designers generate,evaluate, and specify concepts for devices, systems, or processes whose form and functionachieve clients’ objectives or users’ needs while satisfying a specified set of constraints” whilegoing on to add that a “designer has a client (or customer
methods that utilize real-worldapplications of science and math concepts, are positively related to STEM major choice.Using the National Education Longitudinal Study (NELS), Legewie and DiPrete (2014) similarlyfound that high school context matters—high school STEM curriculum and the level of gendersegregation of extracurricular activities is associated with the diversification of college STEMfields. Yet, all of these studies aggregate STEM disciplines, leaving student selection intoengineering majors still relatively ambiguous. Unlike science, technology, and mathematics,engineering curricula have not been widely adopted in K-12 schools; this means that students haveless exposure to the field during secondary education. Since K-12 exposure to

Engineering Education, 2017 Implementing Design Thinking into Summer Camp Experience for High School Women in Materials EngineeringAbstractAlthough women make up a significant portion of the college educated population, there remainsa sizable gap between the number of men and women pursuing degrees and careers in science,technology, engineering and math (STEM) fields. The gender gap begins at middle school andwidens considerably in later high school years. One major factor for this gap is the lack ofbelonging women can feel towards engineering. As one approach to developing and improvingthis sense of belonging, we focused on improving students’ comprehension of engineering topicsduring a weeklong materials science and
