Abstract
The study explored how Mexican-origin women in STEM utilized Anzaldua’s borderlands of identity and Conocimientos to successfully navigate between Mexican-origin cultures and STEM cultures. Students experienced life-changing events during their studies (el arrebato) and felt torn between STEM and Mexican-origin cultures (Nepantla). However, students also sought to reimagine their futures (Coyolxuahqui, the blow-up) and use their degrees to help their communities.
