On Oct. 15, Wayne Shaw, Mountain-Western Regional Director, met with Dr. Teri Beam, Dean of the School of Science, Engineering and Technology at St. Mary’s University in San Antonio, Texas, for a 30-minute discussion. Wayne highlighted AOC's scholarship opportunities, primarily aimed at undergraduate electrical engineering students, though open to other disciplines as well. He provided AOC brochures detailing these scholarships and introduced the AOC certification program, which supports long-term professional development for students pursuing careers in electromagnetic warfare. Additionally, Wayne shared copies of The JED for Dr. Beam to distribute to interested students.
The meeting took place shortly after the university's groundbreaking ceremony for the new Blank Sheppard Innovation Center, a state-of-the-art facility housing multiple engineering labs. With resources for 3D printing, data science and robotic manufacturing, the center offers students hands-on experience in cutting-edge 21st-century science and engineering skills.
