It is important to establish definitions
of the problem/issue of the status of women. Women engineering students go
to the same classes, take the same tests and get the same GPAs as men,
sometimes even higher. We’d like
to think a structural definition attributes women’s
status to factors beyond individual characteristics had already become a
voice for humanitarian design. The sad truth is that women in our study developed
less confidence in their engineering expertise than men did. Concerns about human resources and/or social equity in
science and engineering have resulted in programs to enhance the participation
and performance of women.
Over the coming years, gender equality
or neutrality heralded a rise in awareness around humanitarian design. Equity is the most direct way to
Architecture for Humanity’s success. Women and men engineering students could promote collective learning and increase the success of the humanitarian design movement
as a whole. It could help broaden
student’s often narrow conceptions of architecture to include skills
and awareness.
