Dr. Shani Daily Inspires the Next Generation of STEM Learners

The Duke University Office of the Provost has selected seven research proposals that engage with “Racial and Social Equity in Local Context.” One of the seven projects is led by AiiCE Backbone Director and Professor of the Practice in the Department of Electrical & Computer Engineering at Duke University, Dr. Shani Daily. Dr. Daily and Duke University collaborators Alia Carter and Sandra Roach aim "to enhance the college and career readiness of middle and high school students, promote persistence in STEM majors for undergraduate students and examine the effectiveness of this approach in retaining women and minoritized students in STEM fields." The project, Inspiring the Next Generation of STEM Learners, is a collaboration with Inspiring Minds, a nonprofit organization in Durham, North Carolina.
