In the last few decades an increasing number of female alumni have been a critical part of the innovation in our field. To help honor these incredible women, we have created a new webpage to celebrate their stories. Read more about women in aerospace here: https://t.co/qn7sTE1sAw
Take a look inside a robotics class where workbenches replace desks at @MarygroveSchool in @UMichEducation's Spring 2022 Magazine. The course was designed by a team of faculty & staff from @UMengineering, U-M SOE, and teachers at The School at Marygrove. https://t.co/w2ahCQ95u5
The University of Michigan undergraduate robotics program will open its doors this fall, becoming the first dedicated robotics department among the top 10 engineering schools in the United States.

Michigan Medicine will continue to offer reproductive services, including abortion care, which remains legal in Michigan based on state court rulings. (1/4)
Every company and org needs Michigan Engineers! Every student has hands-on, immersive engineering experiences in convergence with other @UMich disciplines.
Soon-to-be #UmichEngin22 graduates — before you go out in the world today: What was your favorite NON-engineering course?
You may have heard that AI is biased because the data it’s trained on is biased.
That’s really just the tip of the iceberg.
The fairness crisis goes much deeper than that. 🧵 1/8

Yes, everyone is so tired. Everyone wants this to end.
The problem is the virus doesn't care. It just infects relentlessly.
To protect our kids, the elderly, the vulnerable, let's PLEASE stay diligent.
Caring & functional societies DON'T give up. We look after each other.
I recently celebrated my 5 year anniversary at #NASA. With this milestone, I've been reflecting on a few of my biggest mistakes because, excellence is not the absence of mistakes, but a focus on constant improvement and learning. More in my latest blog: https://t.co/TQmJvh4ARi
In the last 10 yrs, the # of students enrolled in undergrad & grad programs in both @UMichCSE and @umsi has quadrupled. The new Leinweber Computer Science and Information (CSI) Building on North Campus will give the disciplines room to grow & collaborate. https://t.co/y8NrUwJqYg
U-M researchers will conduct a $1.5M study, funded by @NSF, to examine how engineering is taught and how a greater focus on human and social aspects might diversify engagement and avoid unintentional harm. https://t.co/orfdarzRJ4 @UMengineering
A @umich engineering alum designed and funded The Grizzly Scholars, a new program at @ycschools_us which aims to combine STEM education with financial literacy and travel as early as elementary school. https://t.co/Ofdkab2prT
Got a 2.4 GPA my first semester in college. Thought maybe I wasn’t cut out for engineering. Today I’ve landed two spacecraft on Mars, and am now designing one for the Moon.
STEM is hard for everyone. Grades ultimately aren’t what matter. Curiosity and perseverance matter.
