摘要

The perception that engineers and scientists are intelligent Caucasian men who are socially inept and absent-minded people is prevalent among students of all levels, from elementary school to college (Congressional Commission on the Advancement of Women and Minorities in Science, Engineering and Technology Development [CCAWMSETD], 2000; Knight & Cunningham, 2004). While the media may, by chance or choice, promote this image, the reality is that most engineers are men. For example, while women consti-tuted 46.1% of the general workforce of the U.S.A. in 2000, they represented only 25.4% of the engineering and science workforce (National Science Foundation, 2006). These stereotypical images of engineers and scientists as Caucasian men have, in part, discour-aged many young women from pursuing any interest they may have in an engineering or science career because they cannot be the people so often portrayed in the media (Brownlow, Smith & Ellis, 2002).
