This study proposes to answer thefollowing research question and sub-questions: (1) How do women who have persisted in undergraduate engineering programs, at an urban university, build engineering identity through their educational experiences? a. How do women describe secondary educational experiences that contributed to their decision to major in engineering? b. How do women describe post-secondary educational experiences that contributed to their persistence in an engineering major?Subjectivity Statement For qualitative studies, it is necessary to describe how the position of the researcher couldinfluence the data analysis and

So if you are getting a B or C in one of your classes, don’t start to think that you are a failure or that engineering isn’t for you or that you aren’t smart enough or that maybe you should just withdraw. It’s important to take a step back and remind yourself that you don’t have to be perfect, but you can still succeed.”DiscussionThe findings of this study reveal that the major hindrances that female students encountered inthe university related to ineffective professors and professors who did not provide a positiveclimate/environment in the engineering classrooms and/or departments.

The quadrant C thinking preference (teamwork skills)of women students creates uncomfortable classroom climates for them.
