Congratulations to Tedra Ballard! Tedra’s research proposal on minority women in ODU’s engineering program has been selected by the University Undergraduate Research Committee at Old Dominion University to receive funding ($3,000) for the Fall 2019 semester.

The goal of Tedra’s research project is to identify factors that contribute to the underrepresentation of African American women in engineering by targeting the effects of the unique experiences of these women on multiple educational outcomes.  The findings from the proposed study may provide insights into potential solutions for addressing STEM disparities, particularly in the field of engineering.

TARDIS lab is very proud of her accomplishment and excited to see the growth of her research!
