Descripción hardcover. Condición: new. Illustrated. How women coped with both formal barriers and informal opposition to their entry into the traditionally masculine field of engineering in American higher educationEngineering education in the United States was long regarded as masculine territory For decades women who studied or worked in engineering were popularly perceived as oddities outcasts unfeminine or inappropriately feminine in a male world In Girls Coming to Tech Amy Bix tells the story of how women gained entrance to the traditionally male field of engineering in American higher educationAs Bix explains a few women breached the genderreinforced boundaries of engineering education before World War II During World War II government employers and colleges actively recruited women to train as engineering aides channeling them directly into defense work These wartime training programs set the stage for more engineering schools to open their doors to women Bix offers three detailed case studies of postwar engineering coeducation Georgia Tech admitted women in 1952 to avoid a court case over objections by traditionalists In 1968 Caltech male students argued that nerds needed a civilizing female presence At MIT which had admitted women since the 1870s but treated them as a minor afterthought feministera activists pushed the school to welcome more women and take their talent seriouslyIn the 1950s women made up less than one percent of students in American engineering programs in 2010 and 2011 women earned 184 of bachelors degrees 226 of masters degrees and 218 of doctorates in engineering Bixs account shows why these gains were hard won.
