However, women, especially URM women, in STEM careers report feeling left out ofnetworks and thus face decreased social and administrative support. The isolation of women,especially URM women, in engineering in the California State University (CSU) System isapparent in the fact that many CSU engineering departments have only a few women faculty andno more than a single URM woman faculty.
