Abstract

In this paper we review the current, recent, and historical data associated with the representation of women in engineering and managerial disciplines, particularly focusing on the initial recruitment of women into degree programs. Beliefs women hold regarding the relative attractiveness of engineering and other careers are examined. In this paper we report work in progress using data and cases from the University of Missouri - Rolla to illustrate general findings. Specific recruiting practices and the lessons learned from them are described. Implications for employers, educational institutions, and females interested in engineering are discussed.
