A woman engineer's view of 50 years in the profession

摘要

Based on several photographs and clippings which span a period of over fifty years, I dozen newspaper will touch on some of the highlights and unusual aspects of my engineering career, as well as the careers of my two engineering daughters. Myscrapbook begins with publicity I received after winning engineering school scholarships, and later, was the first woman to graduate from the Columbia University School of Engineering. It includes letters addressed to "Dear Sir", award of the "women'sbadge" of Tau Beta Pi, stories about my work at Bell Telephone Laboratories and Sperry Gyroscope Company, and my teaching career at Fairleigh Dickinson University. I will discuss the changes I have seen in women's roles in engineering during the pastfifty-five years, from my perspectives as a former woman engineer in industry, a current engineering professor, and as the mother of two women engineers.
