Outreach activities in DFW area
We continuously include undergraduate students with various backgrounds, such as women and underrepresented minorities and first-generation college students.
We are a diverse group: 5 languages, 5 Countries, and 4 Continents (at least).
10 out of 16 students are women and underrepresented minorities in STEM.
8 out of 16 are first-generation college students, including myself.
We are from varied educational backgrounds in biomedical engineering, biomedical science, chemistry, biology, math, physics, material science, chemical engineering, Pre-med, mechanical engineering, computer science and engineering, etc.
A diverse group of different ages, colors, disability, ethnicity, family or marital status, gender identity or expression, language, national origin, ability, political affiliation, race, religion, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, veteran status, and others makes us doing great and exciting science and engineering
