Professor Markenscoff's ENVISION Guest Lecture was enthusiatically received

Professor Xanthippi Markenscoff was enthusiastically received by a large group of high school girl-students from the extended Southern California area to whom she spoke about the exciting developments in technological innovations happening at UCSD and in MAE, and why women should be part of them. Her Guest Lecture on February 8 was part of the ENVISION 2014 event organized by the chapter of the Society of Women Engineers at UCSD. Bringing role models in engineering to the young high school students helps them realize both the excitment of being at the forefront of the technological advancements and the career possibilities open to them.
