Increasing diversity and representation in STEM is a key mission for DSU. This past week Dr. Ashley Podhradsky gave the keynote presentation at the Women in Science event held at Northern State University, which was sponsored by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).
The annual event provides a forum for young women and girls to learn about the endless career paths available in math and science, while providing a unique networking opportunity. Podhradsky gave a presentation entitled Women in Computing, Determination is Key, to 350 girls from 12 different schools. The presentation highlighted leading and historical women in computing, her work in digital forensics, and DSU’s academic programs.
