The purpose of this study was to determine the importance of university programs designed to support, encourage, and retain female undergraduates enrolled in math, science, and engineering (MSE) majors. Interviews and roundtable discussions with thirty-two junior and senior female MSE majors revealed numerous factors within the university setting that contributed to female MSE retention and graduation. Four factors are discussed within the scope of this article: support networks and university acclimation, faculty associations, financial assistance, and university support programs that created a more personalized educational experience.
