Carnegie Mellon University's College of Engineering Faculty Insights: A 20 Minute Briefing 10:00 - 11:00 am

Please RSVP by 11:00 p.m. EDT on September 29th.  Login details will be forwarded to you upon completion of your registration.   Please join us for Carnegie Mellon University's College of Engineering "Faculty Insights: A 20 Minute Briefing." In this series, faculty will share insights into their research, its impact, and provide perspective for the future of the field. Following the 20-minute presentations, attendees will have an opportunity to direct questions and comments to the speakers. The Green Design Institute (GDI) at Carnegie Mellon University seeks to conduct, foster, and promote research pertaining to infrastructure and systems growth in the developing world. While adequate infrastructure is a key building block in elevating quality of life and social welfare, it is critical to pursue a balanced development path cognizant of both the returns to investment in systems and the associated environmental and human impacts. Broadly, research at the GDI seeks to find this balance. In this webinar, Professors Paulina Jaramillo and Nick Muller will discuss their vision for GDI and highlight ongoing research.

Yarnivores - Meeting 6:30 – 7:30pm Yarnivores is CMU's fiber arts club. That means knitting, crocheting, spinning, yarn dyeing, and a bunch of other fun things. Most people come to our club to learn how to knit or crochet. It's a great de-stressing activity and a super chill club atmosphere. We have virtual meetings that you can attend whenever you feel like it or have a little bit of extra time. We also provide a forum for those who already know how to crochet or knit to expand their skills, craft for charity, and show the campus community what fiber arts are all about. Meetings are Tuesday evenings at 6:30pm Pittsburgh time over Zoom, but if you're not free then we're working on a discord for people to access whenever! More on that soon in #club-announcements hopefully.
