Learning have a game-changingcontribution to industrial and engineering-related problems. This technology will completely changethe future of many industries through a transformational increase of the efficiency and accuracy ofthe problem solving. The contributions of Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning to manyengineering industries can be summarized in two classes:Class One: Minimization or avoidance of assumptions, interpretations, and simplifications to buildhighly realistic models of the physical phenomena.Class Two: Minimization of computational footprint of the numerical models such that they can actin a realistic and practical manner.There are major differences between modeling and solving Engineering versus Non-engineeringrelated

SHPE’s Virtual STEM Labs: Engaging and inspiring Hispanic youth to pursue STEM degrees and careers.Background/MotivationSolving the world’s most pressing and complex issues, including the recent pandemic, climateand environmental challenges, and sustainable economic development, is dependent on scientificinnovation. This need is reflected in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics(STEM) occupation growth which has increased 79% since 1990 and is projected to grow by10.8 percent by 2031 [1]. To meet these labor market demands, the United States hasconsistently invested over $500 million dollars in STEM education specifically since 2019 withan emphasis on programs that increase participation of
computer, mobile, and information technologies to advance healthy and successful aging in elderly and underserved populations. He has successfully led research projects in the areas of telehealth/mobile health (m-health), home health care technologies, personal health records, and design and development of biomedical instrumentation, including wearable medical devices. He is a recognized biomedical researcher with prior funding from NIH, NSF, FDA, Dept of Commerce, Dept of Education, Dept of Defense, and other organizations.

Mai Abdelhakim and Samuel Dickerson Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering University of Pittsburgh { maia, dickerson }@pitt.eduAbstractAlong with the ever-increasing adoption of connected systems in the age of the Internet of Things(IoT), there is a pressing need for preparing engineers and other technology professionals toaddress the growing cybersecurity challenges. Nowadays, cybersecurity education is needed notonly for cybersecurity specialists but also for anyone who works with technology, especially incritical infrastructure (such as energy systems or healthcare). However, there is an evident gap incybersecurity skills due to the
majority (female) andgender minorities. They range from early career to late career. They have family backgroundsthat range from growing up around highly educated family members to being the first in theirfamilies to attend college. Geographically, our panelists represent the West, South, Midwest, andNortheastern U.S. And their career paths are all very different. Their diversity brings a breadth ofexperience and depth of insight that promises a vibrant panel experience on the topic of genderharassment.Tamara Floyd Smith, Ph.D., P.E., is Dean of the Leonard C.
