Tapping Into the Leadership Conceptions of Undergraduate Women in Computing This mixed-methods project explores gender differences in how students develop their leadership conceptions and confidence, as well as the ways in which women make meaning of their leadership experiences. In this work, I use longitudinal data from the BRAID Research project along with interview data collected from undergraduate women pursuing computing majors.
