Jennifer M. Bekki is an Associate Profesor in and Associate Director of the Polytechnic School, one of the Ira A. Fulton Schools of Engineering at Arizona State University. Bekki joined the ASU faculty in 2008 and served as the graduate program chair for the Engineering Education Systems and Design PhD program from 2015 - 2019. She teaches courses in the engineering and manufacturing engineering programs as well as in the Engineering Education Systems and Design and Systems Engineering PhD programs. Her primary research interests include understanding the experiences of diverse women doctoral students in STEM, identifying and promoting the interpersonal contributors to effective faculty and graduate student mentorship within STEM, online student persistence, modeling and analysis of complex manufacturing systems, and the development of discrete event simulation methodologies.
Bekki co-leads the interdisciplinary ASU CareerWISE research program, which since 2006 has had a central goal of promoting persistence among White women and Women of Color in STEM doctoral programs. To do so, CareerWISE has: 1) developed and evaluated the efficacy of an online resilience and interpersonal communication training program, and 2) illuminated and shed light on necessary, related changes to the STEM graduate education environment
CareerWISE helps diverse women in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) programs find ways to better manage the challenges in their immediate environments and expand personal skills for thriving in their future career environments. The CareerWISE resource is an individualized online program that pairs empirically based pedagogical content with an interactive simulated environment that provides users with practice opportunities. It is the first program of its kind to provide systematic training in interpersonal communication skills customized for female students in STEM. The program is built on an extensive foundation of theory and research on psychological processes, environmental context, and personal behaviors that contribute to women’s experiences in academic and career paths.
