The ASEE Profiles Surveyannually collects information from higher education institutions that provide at least oneengineering or engineering technology program [27]. We used data from this survey to compileour dependent and independent variables. To predict female faculty's effect on women obtainingengineering degrees, we established our dependent variable as the percentage of degrees awardedto women at an institution. Our dependent variable, Percent Female Graduates, consists of thepercentage of
