Engineering and technical communicationsresearchers also argue that a part of this success is that within such verbal-based activities,students are practicing the authentic engineering discourse needed to consider oneself “anengineer” 10.At the graduate level, some level of professional or academic identity has been achieved throughbachelor’s level education. However, the expectations for disciplinary socialization are muchstronger within the apprenticeship model of graduate education in the U.S. As graduate studentswork under a particular member of an academic discipline, they are able to participate fully inthe activities, the expertise, and the communication patterns of the discipline11,12

Arguments for a student centered-approach include the idea that the pipeline of possibleunderrepresented faculty members must increase in order for there to be successful recruitment.However, women tend to disproportionately drop out of the pipeline, so that fewer apply for jobsat institutions than are present in postdoctoral positions or graduate schools.

Forced by destiny, he ended up at Norfolk State University where he is now pursuing a PhD degree in Material Science focusing on optical characterization of materials for energy harvesting.
