Even though increasing numbers of minority students are declaring CS and CE astheir major, departments are having a difficult time retaining and graduating them. The minoritystudents are often less well prepared for CS or CE education and are preoccupied

). Recent evidence shows that the gender gapin earnings is increasing after a period of decline (13). This gap is partly due to workers in female-dominated occupations being paid lower average wages than workers in male-dominated occupations. Themost common explanation for occupational sex segregation is that women choose different occupationsbecause they are socialized to prefer different types of work from men (10). Girls who are encouraged toplay with baby dolls and learn to take care of others may become elementary school teachers and nurseswhile boys who play with building blocks may become engineers (10). Author, J.A. Jacobs reported thatoccupational aspirations of young men and women are roughly as segregated as the occupational

effectiveness. Many items in WA11GAP cannot bequantified, leading to subjective grading based on rubrics. Furthermore, items about awareness ormindsets such as The Engineer and the World”, “Ethics”, and “Lifelong learning” are not subject tograding, making them of lower priority in learners' ordinary minds. Therefore, increasing awareness ofsuch items and conducting reflections through feedback on achievements that have not been graded buthave been acquired by participants in post-program feedback are expected to contribute to the qualitativeimprovement of engineering education.Regarding the applicability of the text-mining method, this approach is suitable for arranging informationcontained in writing at various levels, such as letters, words, and
