Freeman Hrabowski has served as the Principal Investigator on his university’s National Science Foundation ADVANCE grant, and he chaired the National Academies Committee that recently produced the report, “Expanding Underrepresented Minority Participation: America’s Science and Technology Talent at the Crossroads.” For decades a champion of expanding STEM participation by students from all backgrounds, Hrabowski will address best practices and lessons learned in STEM education, particularly as they relate to the transformation of institutional cultures.en-USMinorities -- Education -- United StatesScience -- Study and teaching -- United StatesTechnology -- Study and teaching -- United StatesPresentation
