. The roles and responsibilities that are traditionally held bywomen emphasize family responsibilities over professional job, especially in fields such asengineering that are considered masculine [19]. Forgasz et al. [20] emphasize that STEM fields,especially mathematics, science, and computing, are globally and locally perceived as male-dominated fields. This view likely discourages Middle Eastern women from continuing in thesefields and leads to the continuation of their underrepresentation. Sabbah and Heyd-Metzuyanim[21] discuss the effects of ethnic and religious issues and gender inequality attitudes on thescientific identity of Arab female students in Israel.

First, it is necessary for engineering academics to understand engineeringpractice at least to a level sufficient to educate their students. Second, curriculum designreflects contemporary understanding of engineering practice. Any weaknesses will bereflected in less than optimal choices in the engineering curriculum.Sheppard et al15 presents a view of engineering practice based partly on literature16-18 andpartly on perceptions of academics and students. While each of the reports they cite presentsfascinating insights into particular instances of engineering practice, none present a unifyingframework that enables them to be related and compared to each other.

However, there is sometimesresistance from engineering students and educators to emphasize these skills in the curriculum.There are many reasons engineering faculty still struggle with teaching these skills. Cajander etal. suggest “that many educators have an intuitive grasp of what professional skills are, butstruggle to give a clear definition of them and to define rubrics for their assessment.
