considered period, b) public institutions that had not hada female leader during the considered period and have not had an ADVANCE initiative, and c)public institutions that did not have an initial critical mass but had an ADVANCE initiative [4].From our results, since the paths towards increasing participation included those that did not haveADVANCE initiatives, we interpret that there are additional theoretical considerations that, ifunderstood, could bring a better grasp of alternative strategies, as well as barriers to achieving thegoals of ADVANCE, and other BPIs. In this research we explore such potential.Study DesignThe first stage of our project is this observational and retrospective study, in which we rely mainlyin publicly available

Schenectady, NY 12308AbstractFemale representation in mechanical engineering remains a critical challenge for academicinstitutions committed to fostering diversity and inclusivity. At Union College, the genderdisparity is evident, with female enrollment in the Mechanical Engineering departmentdeclining from 22.5% in the freshman cohort to only 13.3% by senior year. To address thisgap, the department has introduced initiatives aimed at supporting and retaining femalestudents through structured mentorship, peer support, and career development programs.Key among these efforts is the Female Student Mentor Project, which pairs senior studentswith underclassmen to foster academic confidence and professional growth. Additionally,regular networking events
