[NFBCS] Science and Engineering Mentorship Program

[vincentfmartin2020 at gmail.com]

Contact the “Access Engineering” program at the DO-IT program at the University of Washington.

DO-IT administers the Access Computing program now, but have had grants that supported the Access Engineering and Access STEM programs.

My Doctorate is dual in Economics and Systems Engineering and I have undergraduate Engineering degrees in Textile and Industrial Engineering.

How many blind Engineers are there, and what do they do?I'm a graduate student in CS which is in the Engineering department, so I was asked this question recently and I didn't have an answer.
