1:00 pm - 1:10 pm CDT	Welcome
1:10 pm - 1:55 pm CDT	Keynote Address & Q&A Bryan Catanzaro, VP of Applied Deep Learning Research, NVIDIA ×Close Setting the Stage: ECE Curriculum and Engineering Education Research Tune in to this session to get a preview of the discussion at the Annual Conference surrounding Engineering Research and the future of ECE Curriculum.   Featuring: Ken Connor Professor Emeritus, Electrical, Computer, and Systems Engineering RENSSELAER POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTE Dr. Connor's research involves plasma physics, electromagnetics, photonics, biomedical sensors, engineering education, diversity in the engineering workforce, and technology enhanced learning. He learned problem solving from his father (who ran a gray iron foundry), his mother (a nurse) and grandparents (dairy farmers). He has had the great good fortune to always work with amazing people, most recently the members and leadership of the Inclusive Engineering Consortium (IEC) from HBCU and HSI ECE programs and the faculty, staff and students of the Lighting Enabled Systems and Applications (LESA) ERC, where he was Education Director until his retirement in 2018. He was RPI ECSE Department Head from 2001 to 2008 and served on the board of the ECE Department Heads Association (ECEDHA) from 2003 to 2008. He is a Life Fellow of the IEEE. ;     Close
