Embracing a Mission to Diversify STEM

The importance of diversifying STEM fields is highlighted through the mission of making engineering education accessible to a wider audience. The speaker emphasizes the need to share knowledge beyond traditional academic settings, aiming to engage underrepresented groups such as girls, Black, and Hispanic children. This initiative began during the pandemic, leading to the creation of content on social media platforms like TikTok to reach young people. By doing so, the goal is to spark enthusiasm for STEM subjects and create a more inclusive environment in engineering.
