About this Event
Welcoming BIPOC students into the STEM fields supports a more equitable workforce and strengthens the connection between education and industry. During the design process for the reimagined Vernier Science Center at Portland State University, our collaboration with the University to engage a BIPOC cohort shifted design outcomes in unexpected ways, with powerful results that will impact future campus projects. This session will address how clients and design partners can authentically engage BIPOC voices while integrating atypical design and program strategies necessary to support diverse student success.
