Women and men of color and White women participate in American engineering education in lower proportions than they represent in the general U.S. population. Much existing engineering education research uses individual‐level (such as psychological) theories to explain this difference. The study reported here instead takes a structural perspective, asking how social relations are coordinated in engineering education.

向小众学习：研究与美国工程教育的性别和种族结构有关的统治关系

有色人种和白人妇女参加美国工程教育的比例要低于美国总人口中的比例。现有的许多工程教育研究都使用个人（例如心理）理论来解释这种差异。本文报道的研究取而代之的是从结构的角度出发，询问在工程教育中如何协调社会关系。
