August 28, 2015
Elizabeth Dirk, assistant professor in the Department of Chemical and Biological Engineering, has been selected as a National Academy of Engineering Frontiers in Engineering Education faculty member and will attend the 6th Annual Frontiers in Engineering Education Symposium in Irvine, Calif., in October.
Dirk was nominated by Jeffrey Brinker, Distinguished Professor of Chemical and Biological Engineering and Sandia researcher.
During the symposium, researchers will participate in discussions and workshops focused on approaches to classroom, laboratory, project, experiential, computer-based, or other modes of preparing engineering students to work and lead in the 21st century. Attendees also have opportunities to share their innovations with others, learn from best practices, and network with colleagues.
