Underrepresented Minorities of the NAE Meeting/Lunch

In our quest to broaden participation in engineering and foster more diversity in NAE and NASEM activities, we believe NAE members would benefit from a group with a clear-eyed focus on these matters. And because we also believe that ideation comes from ALL members, we are pleased to invite you to the inaugural meeting of Underrepresented Minorities of the NAE (URMNAE), to take place in person Saturday, October 1, 10:30 am–1:00 pm (ET) at the NAS building room 125 & NAS board room (2101 Constitution Ave. NW Washington, DC)

Please save the date and join us for this first business meeting as we develop goals for this presidential committee.
