CSE Research Spotlight: Rhonda Franklin

Rhonda Franklin talks about why she chose to specialize in integrated circuitry for radio frequency and microwave applications. She explains how the use of technology will provide access for more students from all underrepresented groups to see themselves in STEM fields.

NextProf Speaker, Rhonda Franklin – Connecting Diverse Students

ECE alumnus Rhonda Franklin uses her influence as a faculty member at the University of Minnesota to attract a diverse student population to the STEM field, and her own field of applied electromagnetics. She believes the best research results are achieved from a diversity of backgrounds, something she learned as a graduate student at Michigan and fosters in her own research group at Minnesota.

Prof. Franklin was on campus to take part in the 2016 NextProf Workshop, which brings highly qualified participants to campus to explore and prepare for a faculty position in engineering. This year’s Workshop focused on increasing diversity in engineering, and included undergraduate and first year graduate students to give them an introduction to academia.
