As discussed by the AAUW (2010), “a 2009 poll of young people ages 8–17 by theAmerican Society for Quality, 24 percent of boys but only 5 percent of girls said they wereinterested in an engineering career.”5 In 2006, just over 20% of first year male students plannedto major in engineering, computer science, or the physical sciences.

Among the issues that William Wulf,president of the National Academy of Engineering, pointed out in the main plenary address to the 2002ASEE – Annual Conference at Montreal, is the need for reform of faculty reward systems at the nation’sschools of engineering and technology to better reflect the modern practice of engineering.As Wulf pointed out in his address: “I don’t especially want to engage in the teaching vs. research debate. I suspect, like most of you, I believe that teaching and research complement each other. And, by and large, there is a high correlation between good teaching and good research. Good people are good!

Gettingundergraduates in STEM fields to think about teaching at the college level early in their careersmay make them more aware of the possibility of continuing their education in graduate school orfaculty careers. In addition to these higher level professional outcomes, undergraduate teachingassistants and tutors are typically compensated for their work through hourly pay rather thanteaching appointments.

Conversely, undergraduate women of Color found that race served as a barrier torelationship building with professors, which hindered their ability to access career-relatedopportunities. However, the findings of Salazar et al. [11] also indicated that exposure toprofessors of Color facilitated relationships with racially underrepresented students, which thengave these students access to networks that supported their career goals in STEM. Finally, theauthors found that the effects of both racism and sexism were lessened when students wereengaged in research. The

. I mean, the most successful people, they’re in the industry, and the ones who will, um, be noticed for their work and who will advance in their careers the fastest are not necessarily the ones who, um, are-are the best, um, fundamental engineers. (Darrell, SPRI, Year 3).Darrell noted that the engineers who were successful were not necessarily those who had themost excellent mathematical abilities, but rather those who possessed skills such as working withothers, communication, and the ability to present one’s work. That is, it is not primarily anunderstanding of science that enables one to be successful in engineering, but also, and morecentrally, abilities that have to do with conditions of working with others, such
