Despite progress in gender equality, there is still reluctance in some professions to fully accept females into the mainstream. Engineering is sometimes among them. But many women are maintaining solidarity in facing the challenges of acceptance. Alexandra Roselle, an aerospace engineering student in the School for Engineering of Matter, Transport and Energy, part of the Fulton Schools, and member of the Society of Women Engineers  at ASU, is in a field in which fewer the 14 percent of the workforce are females. Roselle recalls teachers in elementary and middle school telling her engineering is a job suitable for women. But she and other ASU students in engineering and other fields continue challenging barriers that have long limited women’s career opportunities.
