(a) (b)Figure 2 shows the two cases of credibility deficit and excess.The rectangle that encompasses the scale in Figure 1 represents the credibility economy, which ishow credibility is distributed among individuals [38], often unevenly based on structural socialcontexts. Within the context of engineering, identity stereotypes surrounding race, gender,sexuality, socioeconomic status, disability, neurodivergence, etc. lead to prejudices that revealthemselves in the credibility economy.

However, minority undergraduates include at least 50% of the totalenrollment of undergraduate students [36]. Additionally, Campus A and B held CarnegieClassification as research universities with very high research activity (R1), and Campus C wasclassified as a research university with high research activity (R2).Case Site SelectionWe

students.ConclusionThis paper identifies the needs of graduate women in engineering at Penn State, and discussesthe formation of a student organization, GradWIE, to address those needs. To these ends, a pilotsurvey was designed by a group of engineering graduate students to primarily gauge the need forcommunity and student interest in creating a group for women who are graduate students in theengineering field. Results from the survey showed that graduate students felt like they needed astronger community in the College of Engineering and that they desired a graduate women inengineering group. Our methods of (a) leveraging a user-centric, stakeholder-led approach and(b) assessing community needs prior to community organization could benefit studentorganizations
Paper ID #39662Understanding the Male Student Perception of Culture Climate for Womenin Engineering EducationMs. Alexis Nicole Barney, Iowa State University I am an undergraduate student at Iowa State University, studying Math Secondary Education. I began my studies as an aerospace engineering student and quickly noticed a chilly culture climate for women studying engineering. I decided to conduct research on the topic to see how the dominant group (white- male students) views these issues and what are they doing to solve them. Furthermore, I explored what could be done to improve the culture climate for minoritized groups
