Meeting 2022 TMS Annual Meeting & Exhibition
Symposium Acta Materialia Symposium
Presentation Title Acta Materialia Mary Fortune Global Diversity Lecture: Engaging a Diverse Student Body through Education, Outreach and Mentorship
Author(s) Amber L. Schneeweis Genau
On-Site Speaker (Planned) Amber L. Schneeweis Genau
Abstract Scope The research is clear: diverse teams reach better solutions. Increasing participation in STEM is therefore not just a matter of justice or fairness, but also of urgent practical importance if we are to effectively meet the enormous technical challenges of the 21st century. The speaker will describe some of her educational, outreach, and mentoring activities aimed at increasing participation in materials science and engineering by women, African Americans, and other underrepresented groups. Based on the notion that a diverse offering of meaningful and engaging experiences inside and outside the classroom are vital to building and maintaining a diverse student body, she will discuss a faculty-led study abroad course to Germany and how that course led to a new on-campus world history and technology sequence with broad reach. She will also describe a summer outreach program for high school students and her engagement with on-campus student societies.
