Adrienne Minerick, dean of the College of Computing at Michigan Technological University, is president-elect of the American Society for Engineering Education (ASEE).
Engineering education was already changing — and now it has to. As the ASEE announcement for their now-virtual conference in June says, “Can we follow the stay-home orders and have a conference? Of course. We're engineers. We can solve anything.”
Minerick says this can-do attitude is integral to the engineering profession and its education mission. She looks forward to navigating changes and leveraging opportunities for innovation at a national scale. As a member of the Michigan Tech community, both as dean of the University’s newest college and as a chemical engineering faculty member, what is computer engineering has held ground for new ways to think about microfluidic medical devices and career advancement for women, people of color and minority groups, as well as shifts in education like the industry-driven realignment that created the College of Computing.
