NACME Research Briefs - C.A.S.E. Academy
NACME launched the Career Accelerator in Science & Engineering Academy in 2021, a training series to educate NACME Scholars on the skills needed to obtain their competitive opportunity of choice in the fields of engineering and computer science. The C.A.S.E. Academy offers weekly training webinars on both technical and professional development topics and summer expriences such as boot camps, bridge, and pathway programs.
NACME Research Briefs - Corporate Scholars Program
At this pivotal time in NACME’s history, the organization has responded to a request from corporate partners and in Summer 2021 launched a Corporate Scholars program that included a paid internship experience. It has become increasingly clear that the academic pipeline in higher education depends on students’ successful experiences inside and outside of the classrooms. Internship and co-op programs can serve as a conduit for attracting talented women and minority students to engineering by working closely with feeder schools to provide hands-on experiences and exposure to the field of engineering early in a student’s academic career.
