EERC Women in STEM: Persistance Pays Off
Imposter Syndrome. Tightrope Walk. Isolation. These reoccurring themes follow women in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) fields. So what keeps women going?
Exploring New Solutions for Wind Turbine Blades
Wind turbine blade disposal is presenting a challenge to North Dakota wind farms. A SERC project at the EERC is examining recycling and repurposing potential of blades.
EERC Women in STEM: Overcoming Barriers
The EERC employs around 175 full time people, 60% of whom have degrees in a STEM field and hold STEM positions. Of those degree-holders at the EERC, 17% are female.
