Please join us for “Stronger Together: STEMM and the Humanities,” a special event focused on STEMM in the Humanities and Humanities in STEMM. The goal is to foster meaningful discussion about the integration of STEMM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics, and Medicine) approaches in the humanities, as well as the value of humanistic perspectives within STEMM-based research.
This event will take place on March 30, 1-4:30 pm, at the LiveLab, and will feature:
- A 90-minute roundtable discussion, including a Q&A, on the role of the humanities in STEMM and the use of STEMM methods in the humanities.
