INTERVIEWS 

Phase 2

Research team members recruited WOC tenure-track faculty of engineering across universities in the United States. At this point, 53 WOC tenure-track engineering faculty have been interviewed, using one-on-one interviews and focus groups during 2016-2018. Participants were interviewed in person at their universities, national engineering-related conferences, and over the phone. The interview format was semi-structured, following a guiding list of questions, and audio-recorded. Interviews lasted from 45 minutes to 2.5 hours and were professionally transcribed.
