But they still are being And 40 percent of the country's working female and minority chemists and chemical engineers said they were "discouraged" in high school and/or college from pursuing their STEM career. "By offering their expertise and encouragement, mentors help prepare the next generation of scientists and engineers while ensuring that tomorrow's innovators reflect the full diversity of the United States," said the White House announcement. It is my honor to do And, from what I have read about it, the purposes of land-grant institutions were to advance training and research in agriculture, engineering and the sciences. Thank you, Professor Wolpert, for inviting me to give the Common Lecture for this one-of-a-kind course. Online magazine covers a variety of issues on engineerng and technology ethics. The College of Engineering assistant professor of electrical and computer engineering and of materials science and engineering and 93 others received this year's Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers and of mechanical engineering, and Mario Cabodi, an ENG research assistant professor of biomedical engineering, will further advance microfluidics technology they've designed to integrate sample preparation in each of the two platforms. Because of the rapidly changing global economy, jobs that are in high demand today may be less-valued tomorrow. Recipients and experts in science, technology, engineering and mathematics explained why more education does not always translate into better career opportunities.
