National WEPAN Pilot Climate Survey exploring the environment for undergraduate engineering students (1999)

unapi

The primary purpose of the WEPAN (Women in Engineering Programs and Advocates Network) Pilot Climate Survey was to develop a method to assess engineering student perceptions of the educational climate at colleges and universities in the USA. More than 8000 male and female undergraduate engineering students from 29 institutions responded to the survey. Participating institutions used their individual reports to gain insight into specific aspects of the environment on their campuses that require attention for all students. Aggregate data yielded interesting findings regarding gender differences in areas related to student self-confidence and self-esteem that require further study.
