University of Colorado Boulder Aerospace Engineering major Ada Forsner poses for a portrait in Boulder on Friday. In 2023, 30% of all undergraduate engineering students were female at the University of Colorado Boulder, compared to 18% in 2003. Of the freshmen that came into engineering during the fall of 2023, 41% were female, up from 14% two decades ago.
“My major is really, really tiny already, so we don’t have a lot of women engineers. But every single time I look at the years before me, I always see more and more women in the room, and it just makes me really, really happy to see them all come together,” Batra said. Ada Forsner said she loves being an aerospace engineering student at CU Boulder. But, being a female in engineering has been challenging, and she has felt a need to succeed to be noticed.
“That means there are more people who recognize that this is a real thing, and there are more people who can get something done by trying to address the problem rather than having one voice.”
