improved CAD training, though again notspecifically targeted towards women.There is some literature which does point towards course design and considerations specifically forwomen and CAD. In a 1999 study, Oritz conducted a follow-up survey for women who had participatedin a course dedicated to women over the age of 30 to teach them skills in CAD and to introduce them tomechanical engineering technology more generally [57]. The study found that, while none of the surveyedparticipants had ended up pursuing a career in mechanical engineering or CAD, the course had improvedtheir confidence with CAD and computers, and they reported that these benefits carried over into thecareers the women had pursued.

year in my undergraduate program, I had no idea what going tograduate school meant. Many students go through their entire educational career notunderstanding how critical research is for all fields of study, not just engineering. I want to helpmotivate these students to aspire to resource-rich universities like Stanford without the fear ofbeing excluded from academic spaces of discourse. I stumbled into being an honor roll student in school because of my passion for solvingproblems and escaping into fantasy worlds through reading. This passion eventually became acuriosity for engineering and making things in high school. I wanted to learn as much as I couldabout anything that seemed remotely interesting. My parents never really

At the college level, about 22% of Bachelors’ degree recipients are womenand 12% are Hispanic. In the workforce, women account for only 15% of the engineering andarchitecture workforce; Hispanics account for only 9% [3].
