Engineering Change Podcast

This episode is a conversation with Dr. Kimberly Douglas of the Society of Hispanic Professional Engineers (SHPE), Clif Morgan of the National Society of Black Engineers (NSBE), Dr. Kathy DeerInWater of The American Indian Science and Engineering Society (AISES), and Dr. Roberta Rincon of the Society of Women Engineers (SWE). We discuss their goal of graduating 50,000 diverse engineers annually by 2025 and how collective impact can bolster the success of change initiatives that are jointly led by different organizations.

In this episode, we take a journey through Seasons 1 and 2, revisiting some of the many amazing moments we had with guests during our first year. We went back to Episode 6 in Season 1 where we talked with undergraduate mechanical engineering student, Javian Pierson about our responsibility to support, mentor, and champion others. From Season 2, we revisited Episode 13 with Dr. Ann Gulley, where we discussed the need for diverse perspectives in standard setting. And from Episode 12 with BlackInEngineering.org, we delve into Dr. Cullen Buie's statement that failure to be inclusive in design and decision-making is literally life or death.
We had a real-time phone call with one of the guests to get an update as we recorded this episode. Check it out to find out who it was and where they are now!

This episode is lagniappe (a little something extra) from Episode 12. In this conversation, Dr. Carlotta Berry, Dr. Audrey Bowden, and Dr. Cullen Bowie share insights from their experiences navigating the research funding and publication landscape as early career faculty. If you have ever wondered how folks get a foot in the door to get their first grants and how they amass publication numbers, you'll know after this.

This is a continuation of our conversation from Episode 27, where we introduced current and past participants in conversations about the National Science Foundation's Alliances for Graduate Education and the Professoriate (AGEP) program. In this episode, we discussed the importance of institutional change and the scholars shared their advice for program officers and project leaders on programmatic strategies for advancing equity in the STEM professoriate and for new and prospective scholars on how to thrive as graduate students, postdoctoral scholars or early career faculty members.
Our guests include:

• Dr. Luis De Jesus Baez, Assistant Professor of Chemistry at the University at Buffalo
• Brianna Gonzalez, Integrative Neuroscience Ph.D. Candidate at Stony Brook University
• Gretchen Johnson, Biology Ph.D. Candidate at Howard University
• Diego Padilla-Garcia, Ph.D. Candidate in Psychological and Brain Sciences at the University of California Santa Barbara
• Dr. Lecia Robinson, Assistant Professor of Biology at Tuskegee University
• Dr. Tammi Taylor, Assistant Professor of Biology at Jackson State University
• Dr. Shavonn Whiten, Lead Scientist at Booz Allen Hamilton
• Dr. Michael D. Whitt, Assistant Professor of Biomedical Engineering at California State University – San Luis Obispo
