In this paper, we examine high school students’ knowledge ofengineering careers and reports of recruitment as predictors of student aspirations forstudying engineering in college.A group of racially/ethnically, socio-economically diverse students from five urban highschools, with either a science-themed focus or a strong science department, participatedin a longitudinal study of retention and attrition associated with STEM outcomes.Preliminary results from 906 students were included in a series of logistic regressionmodels with plans for college study of engineering as the dependent variable.

A critique of conversations from a participatory research approachAbstractWhilst statistics vary, putting the percentage of women engineers at between 6%[1] and 9% [2]of the UK Engineering workforce, what cannot be disputed is that there is a need to attractmore young women into the profession. Building on previous work which examined whyengineering continues to fail to attract high numbers of young women[3,4] and starting withthe research question “What do High School girls think of engineering as a future career andstudy choice?”, this paper critiques research conducted utilising a

In this paper, we report the results ofthe study incorporating these principal variables on retention over three time periods. Thedependent variable, retention, is calculated as the number of students who both stayed in theiruniversity and in their major.

A small focusgroup was conducted with two school counselors from two different e4usa schools in Spring2022. Participants reported constraints in how the counseling process occurs as a barrier toinforming students and others about the course. This suggests a need for further support ofcounselors to effect systemic change and to address common barriers within counselingsystems.

A recent study by the National Science Foundation suggests that much of the differencein outcomes between male and female faculty is attributable to women being married and havingchildren early in their careers. Women faculty in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) disciplinesdescribe a "null environment for women" where they receive little support or colleagueship oncampus (Betz, 1992, 89). Rosser (1997) observes that the overwhelmingly male nature of STEMdisciplines has not only afforded women limited access to participation, but it has shaped thevery nature of the disciplines themselves.
