Increasing gender diversity in STEM

The ANNA tool developed in the scope of the project "Increasing Gender Diversity in STEM" is an online tool that allows high school students to match their own personality, views, and expectations to those of engineering students and professional engineers. Not only does it provide easy access to role models, but it also increases awareness of what it means to be an engineer and picks up on some stereotypes associated with studying technology at the university. This EU funded Erasmus+ project helped the partners to study the gender difference in self-perception about the engineering degree. In the meantime, the data collection gives the opportunity to take a look at how students perceive their university and their degree.
