Abstract | This issue of "Engineering Manpower Bulletin" reviews some of the statistics and other information concerning the status of women in engineering. These major topics are considered: dispelling some common misconceptions; women in the current engineering picture; why does engineering need women; what keeps women out of engineering; problems facing women in engineering; and future opportunities. Women presently constitute less than one percent of the active engineering profession and a little more than one percent of the current engineering student enrollment and new graduates. The average starting salary offered to women in engineering at the bachelor's degree level was $885 per month in 1971, which was a little higher than the average starting salary of male engineers, and is superior to the average salary in other fields generally occupied by women.
