Proud of our three LEAP interns that participated this year @WakeEngineering!
#WFU's LEAP program gives high school kids the chance to conduct hands-on, lab research w/ @WakeForest faculty and an undergrad or grad student. The goal is to increase the number of traditionally underrepresented minorities in the STEM education pipeline. news.wfu.edu/2023/08/09/insp…

During #CybersecurityAwarenessMonth, #BeCyberSmart and Fight the Phish! Use this simple acronym as a set of best practices to recognize and report #phishing.
We love to visit museums and get inspired by people and place. We found a ton of inspiration @HistoryColorado to bring into our classes. If you're ever in Denver definitely check it out!

Our first infographic if 2021 featured Annie Easley (and was inspired by this image) visit hiddenstem.wfu.edu for her printable infographic! #BlackHistoryMonth
Hired in 1955 as a human computer, Annie Easley led a 34-year NASA career developing software code for numerous programs. Her work on the Centaur rocket booster framed the technical foundation for launching future satellites: go.nasa.gov/3J50ZsC #BlackHistoryMonth
