Gender issues in the male-dominated engineering industry are investigated in this focused analysis of three student engineering teams. The team-based teaching model common in engineering provides a particular microcosm to discuss gender as the collaborative skills of decision making and collective responsibility often manifest themselves differently in male and female engineers.
