S3 E35 Inclusivity and Innovation: Engineering Design for a Diverse World Part 1

Digication Scholars Conversations

This week, we uncover the power of inclusivity and innovation in engineering design with Deirdre Hunter from Rice University! 🌍💡

You'll hear our esteemed guest, an Assistant Teaching Professor, at The Design Kitchen (OEDK), share her insights on transforming engineering education into a hub of multi-discipline collaboration, welcoming all genders and backgrounds.

Explore how engineering goes beyond equations. Don't you think it's about empathy and tackling real-world challenges head-on?

Discover the art of creating purpose and igniting a sense of mission in aspiring engineers. Plus, don't miss the spotlight on women's active participation in engineering – a key step toward a brighter, more diverse future in the field.
