Engineering the Future - D.I.C.E. 2012
Dr. Delores M. Etter discusses the importance of innovation and of getting young people involved.
The importance of innovation in undeniable. It not only drives the video game industry, but also the very foundation of countries across the globe. Without it, we stagnate and are at the mercy of those more ambitious than ourselves. Speaking at this year's D.I.C.E. Summit in Las Vegas, Dr. Delores M. Etter, executive director at Caruth Institute for Engineering Education, raised concerns over the US's low rate of engineering graduates compared to other nations. Part of her solution was inspiring more young people to become interested in the sciences through interactive, crime scene investigation camps. She then made a call to action to the D.I.C.E. attendees, urging them to contribute to this program by designing interactive CSI programs for students.
