By: trcutler A Minnesota Breakthrough has happened since one of the longest-running technical colleges in the country, Dunwoody College of Technology in Minneapolis, MN, has put in place a series of initiatives to encourage interest in technical subjects for women of all ages and backgrounds, such as helping younger age girls understand STEM career possibilities and establishing a program designed specifically to help women from disadvantaged backgrounds enter a STEM profession. A grant from Kellogg Foundation has enabled the hiring of a Coordinator of Women’s Enrollment to focus specifically on STEM opportunities for women and an emphasis on role model hiring for departmental deans: recruiting women experienced in technical fields into departmental leadership positions, including Bridget Reynolds, Academic Dean of Construction Sciences & Building Technology. Other initiatives include involvement in regional and national robotics and other technical contests and competitions for pre-college aged students. PDP Solutions’ President Louise Dickmeyer, is proud that Minnesota is creating breakthroughs for the next generation of women in manufacturing.
