Session Title: Hands-On MakerLab Demo & Panel: How Do We *Really* Increase Representation in STEAM?

Join Brandeis Innovation for two exciting programs: First off, in our MakerLab, learn the essentials of 3D printing with this bio-tech and social enterprise focused hands-on session. Learn how to 3D print molecules and learn how students are preserving ancient artifacts, crafting prostethics, and more. 

Then, at 10:30am, hear from our panel on how to really foster inclusion in STEAM. We hear so much about diversity, but how do we really foster it at all levels of the STEAM career pipeline, from K-16 through the executive level? Hear from successful leaders in academia, startups, and the corporate world on how they have fostered a culture of inclusion AND seen tangible growth in diverse candidates
