Brought to you by:
We invite you to join us at our next Anti-Racist Practice in Engineering workshop sessions where a panel of high level administrators and leaders will discuss changes during their tenure and identify impacts, barriers, and transformations.

Day one will be a panel session with open Q&A. The panelists will give their insights on the below questions during their tenure:

  • What has been transformational
  • What are the biggest barriers
  • What has had a large impact
  • What are the biggest challenges they face now and previously
  • What are the outcomes

Day Two will be a working session in small groups to generate ideas about implementing what was learned during the Day One panel session.
Registration Details

These next 90-minute workshop sessions will take place on Tuesday, May 18th at
2pm EDT/1pm CDT and Thursday, May 20th at 2pm EDT/1pm CDT.

Upon registering for each day, you will receive a confirmation email. Please save these confirmation emails as they will allow you access to each workshop session.

The Keysight Innovation
Challenge 2021
Great ideas start small and grow big. They're born from innovators unafraid to break barriers in the face of challenges, who go on to change the world and inspire others to do the same.

The Keysight Innovation Challenge celebrates diversity among student innovators by presenting two challenges: the Innovate Next Business Challenge and the Upskill Your Peers Video Challenge.

We invite you to share this opportunity with graduate and undergraduate students enrolled in a historically Black college or university (HBCU).

Entries will be accepted from April 5, 2021 through August 9, 2021.

Available On-Demand!
With the success of the Hampton University HBCU/HSI Capstone Design Project pilot program, iMasons is poised to sponsor similar projects at other IEC member institutions next year. This initiative offers mentorship and projects from industry as well as providing pathways to employment.
