Supporting Latina Students in Engineering and Computing: A Chicana Feminist Approach
Latina students continue to be underrepresented and face marginalization in engineering and computing fields. Join us for a compelling book talk with award-winning author and scholar, Sarah L. Rodriguez, as she discusses her new book, Supporting Latina Students in Engineering and Computing. Rodriguez will present the book’s findings and explore how equity-minded educators can champion anti racist, restorative practices that honor and support Latinas in engineering and computing. We'll explore evidence-based strategies that can foster a sense of belonging and inclusion among Latina students in these fields.
