Kennedy's love of math led her to a degree in electrical engineering and an internship with ConocoPhillips. Now, as an associate engineer, she concentrates on power, controls and reducing emissions in the Lower 48. Her aspiration is to encourage other young women to pursue careers in math and engineering.

IDAG x AAMA Took Our Kings To The Lawrence Hall Of Science at CAL. They Were Exposed To Paid STEM Internship Opportunities This Summer, Attended A Berkeley Lab Application Workshop, and Watched A Black History Presentation, Took A Tour Of The Bio Lab, & Conversed With A Professional Scientist. Furthermore, We Had a Very Interesting Discussion on Grid Balancing, Decarbonization and Climate Adaption. #UCBerkeley#Laboratory#DJI#STEM#Education#Exposure#Drone#Technology#AAMA#IDAG#OHS#OUSD#Science#Student#Development#WorkBasedLearning#Grid#Balancing#Decarbonization#GlobalWarming#ClimateAdaptation#Energy#FlexLab
Day - 2 - 07/23/2024
On Day 2 of the QUADE Knowledge Upscale Program for our engineering students, our CEO, Santhosh A, covered an important topic: "Competence."
He explained what is required to get placed in the right job, focusing on the integration of three key elements: Attitude, Skills, and Knowledge.
Santhosh A also clarified the difference between Knowledge and Skills with relevant examples.
To help them understand the true meaning of a "good attitude," he broke it down into three components: "Self-Image," "Trait," and "Motive."
1. Self-Image: How a person sees themselves in a job role.
2. Trait: Genetically determined characteristics that add value or diminish the value of your skills, such as honesty, curiosity, and kindness.
3. Motive: The deeper purpose driving a person's behavior, essentially "why they do what they do."
At the end of the session, everyone shared their current Skills, Knowledge, and Attitude, and committed to learning new skills, updating their knowledge, and cultivating good habits while eliminating negative traits.

This year’s National Apprenticeship Week in the UK runs from 5 to 11 February. The initiative targets all industries and sectors, but for the electronics industry, there is a particular need for programmes that equip apprentices with STEM skills. Among the companies and organisations taking part, there is the STEM Hub, which will be hosting live career talks by STEM ambassadors from the National Physical Laboratory, rail and air.
