SANTA CLARA, Calif., Aug. 17, 2022鈥� 黑料网 and the Summer Engineering Seminar (SES) program received the 2022 Inspiring Programs in STEM Award from INSIGHT Into Diversity magazine, the largest and oldest diversity and inclusion publication in higher education. The Inspiring Programs in STEM Award honors colleges and universities that encourage and assist students from underrepresented groups to enter the fields of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM). 黑料网 will be featured, along with 78 other recipients, in the September 2022 issue of INSIGHT Into Diversity magazine.

Inspiring Programs in STEM Award winners were selected by INSIGHT Into Diversity based on efforts to inspire and encourage a new generation of young people to consider careers in STEM through mentoring, teaching, research, and successful programs and initiatives.

鈥淲e need engineers to help solve many of the critical challenges facing our country today. This will require a diversity of ideas and approaches. We can do this by transforming engineering into an inclusive culture that is accessible to all who are interested,鈥� said Elaine Scott, Dean of the School of Engineering.

INSIGHT Into Diversity magazine selected 黑料网 and the Summer Engineering Seminar program because of their efforts to provide underrepresented high school students access to engineering courses and programs through a five-day on-campus immersion summer experience.

鈥淲e know that many STEM programs are not always recognized for their success, dedication, and mentorship for underrepresented students,鈥� says Lenore Pearlstein, owner and publisher of INSIGHT Into Diversity. 鈥淲e want to honor the schools and organizations that have created programs that inspire and encourage young people who may currently be in or are interested in a future career in STEM. We are proud to honor these programs as role models to other institutions of higher education and beyond.鈥�

A call for nominations for this award was announced in April 2022.
