. Maria Chierichetti, San Jose State University Maria Chierichetti joined the department of Aerospace Engineering as a full-time assistant professor in Fall 2019. Her interests lie in the field of aerospace structural design and vibrations, with particular emphasis on developing methodologies for combining finite element analysis and machine/deep learning for structural health monitoring and unmanned Structural inspections in the context of urban air mobility. Maria is also interested in investigating how students learning is affected by external factors, such as COVID-19 pandemic and community service. Before joining SJSU, she worked as a faculty member at Worcester Polytechnic Institute and at the University of

She obtained her Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering from Georgia Tech. She received her Bachelors of Engineering from MIT. Her research focuses on the nontraditional engineering student – understanding their motivations, identity development, and impact of prior engineering-related experiences. Her work dwells into learning in informal settings such as summer camps, military experiences, and extra-curricular activities. Other research interests involve validation of CFD models for aerospace and industrial applications, as well as

The authors conclude that the study’s findings indicate there is a need tounderstand the processes and behaviors that conflict with diversity and inclusion goals as “manysmall puzzles, as opposed to one large one” [29].Engineering continues to struggle with the puzzle of low diversity in the professoriate. InASEE’s annual Engineering By The Numbers, Roy [30] reported on diversity in the engineeringfaculty at institutions in the U.S. Tenure/tenured track women average 17.4%, with the greatestnumber of women in environmental engineering (28.9%) and the least in aerospace (11.8%).

The sample wascomprised of 10 White participants, six Asian Americans, and six URMs who identified asAfrican American or Latinx; seven females, 14 males, and one individual who identified as non-binary. The participants ranged in age from 29 to 43. Almost three quarters indicated they werecurrently employed in a postdoctoral position, while the other quarter were either in tenure-trackfaculty positions or in the private sector. Engineering fields of the sample included aerospace,biomedical, chemical, civil, computer, electrical, environmental/health, and nuclear.
