Engineering While Black: Exploring the Experiences of Black University of Florida Undergraduate Engineering Students Using Photovoice

Abstract

His research focuses on understanding and improving underrepresented student retention and persistence in engineering. For his doctoral research, Dennis is leveraging emerging learning technologies to broaden participation in engineering by exposing students to semiconductor fabrication processes. Much of his work involves designing and assessing interventions for extra-and co-curricular activities for students throughout the educational ecosystem. He is also a member of the ASEE CDEI Spotlight Team. Dennis holds a B.S. in mechanical engineering from The University of Alabama and a M.S. in mechanical engineering from the University of Florida.
