In our college only 5% of pre-engineering and lessthan one percent of computer engineering students are women.There are several reasons for attracting women to engineering such as the fact that more than50% of consumers are women. If those designing the products are able to relate to the femalesection of the population, there is a better chance of selling the products. Industry needs womendesigners. Also, the women’s talent can be used to improve the work environment. Womenexcel in verbal and interpersonal skills and are very good collaborators2.

In addition, there is need for the capabilities of utilizing infor-mation technology, focusing on customer and societal needs, as well as ethical and environmental concerns, andunderstanding global needs and market forces.

, which are widely used in engineering courses [4]. While the intention of team-baseddesign projects is to provide all students with a range of technical and non-technical masteryexperiences [4,5], students enter into these experiences with differences – whether real orperceived – in relevant technical skills that undermine individuals’ participation and persistenceon team-based work. Prior research indicates male engineering students are more confident thanfemales in their math and science abilities, as well as their abilities to solve open-ended problems[6-9]. Lower confidence in women often translates into lower likelihood that they will take anactive role in technical tasks and instead relegate themselves to administrative or people
