Based on our qualitativedata, we found that female students performed a range of roles in the group project. Inthe dimension of task roles, female students usually took the roles of assistants, opiniongiver, coordinators and initiator-managers. In the dimension of social roles, femalesserved as harmonizers, followers or gatekeepers. As to the dimension of individual roles,some female students self-reported the feeling of being an outsider in working with aproject group.

An effective method to address this issue is arequired capstone course that combines a number of different disciplines into a singlecomprehensive experience. In addition to required capstone experience, authors havecollaborated in development of an elective course on modeling and simulation of mechatronicsystems.

This model can be used to reshape existingengineering leadership education programs and integrate leadership into the engineeringcurriculum in an innovative manner. The model starts with a fundamental assumption that theengineering leadership formation process is, at its core, an identity development process. Thisassumption is also central to two established theoretical perspectives that informed theconstruction of this model. Lave and Wenger’s (1991
