The results confirmed that the recruitment, retention, and graduation ratesfrom STEM programs can be improved with initiatives that can be replicated everywhere. Sincethere is no magic bullet solution, every generation of students presenting different kind ofchallenges, we have to adapt our methods to every situation with slightly different approaches sowe consider our work a continuous “work in progress”.The first initiative, in 2002, was to start a massive recruitment campaign in local high schools.The engineering faculty and students participated in every career

Our primary objective in this paper is to examine anunexpected finding emerging from our study of engineering leadership—the significant over-representation of men in engineers’ identification of exemplary leaders. We explore twopossible explanations for this finding—individual women’s disinterest in leadership andstructural constraints limiting their rise.

In the LSE program,iterative revision and recreation of an individualized curriculum and career plan are understoodas signs of success rather than failure or deviation. Students are encouraged to understand anddesign their major as a “whole-person technical degree” that does not require them to pass, toassimilate, to compartmentalize, or to conform to stereotypes. We suggest that this holisticflexibility may disrupt barriers such as impostor syndrome by positioning the student not asimpostor but as designer and creator – even when enrolled in technical courses in which thesex/gender ratio is skewed male.
