This internationally renowned conference unites acommunity of women in computing, including those in industry, research and education, andoffers opportunities for networking, learning, and collaboration. With varied conferencelocations and tight student budgets, it was necessary to seek funding to support this trip. TheSSAF committee funded this inaugural trip in 2012, and again in 2013, 2014, and 2015. Becauseof the success and

Although both can have a relevant impact onsociety, a platform mentality encourages the leadership skill of staying focused on the big pictureand the end result, reinforcing the first tenet, leading with vision, as described above. Like the ERCs, engineering schools can integrate a systems focus into their classroomsand programs overall, encouraging this big picture focus. For example, a computer engineeringprofessor could teach students to develop a protocol for a computer chip (platform) and thendevelop a specific type of hardware using that protocol (product). By participating actively inboth types of projects, students could learn how and why to pursue a platform mentality. Taken astep further, students who present

The teamwork approach provides the chance for students tointeract, improves communication, and eventually develops leadership skills. Bowman and Farr(2000) mention that leadership skills are developed when students embarking on a project are―evaluated on their ability to lead a team and tasked to give oral presentations‖ (16).22 In addition,a study by Gunhaan (2014) shows that team-based collaborative learning provides the opportunityfor students to ―interact, communicate, listen and present as a team‖ (6

need to teachleadership within an integrated learning experience, to help students have more confidence inthe technical application of their leadership skills.IntroductionEngineers are no longer only involved with the technical project details, but must alsounderstand the broader picture as they are often acting as team leaders1. Consequently, thereis a need to educate engineers not just in physics and mathematics, but also in many non-technical areas, including globalization, communication, and leadership2. One of thedifficulties in the field of engineering leadership education is the need to clearly define theterm engineering leadership3. A stronger understanding of this term will help institutions todevelop and improve engineering

For each person they listed as influential, the respondent useda 5-point Likert scale to indicate the extent to which that person influenced them personally, andthe extent to which the team relied on that person for leadership (following the method proposedby Carson and colleagues3).
