The fourth annual Disability Visibility in Engineering Symposium to take place on April 8 from 9 am to 3 pm in the East Room in Pierpont Commons and on Zoom. This student-driven symposium aims to create a space where the engineering community can discuss and learn more about ways to create more accessible engineering environments, research methods, and technologies. We are especially interested in finding new ways to support interdisciplinary collaboration and learning.

Tenative event schedule includes:
- A keynote presentation from Will Purves, director of accessibility and education for the Disability Network for Washtenaw Monroe Livingston
- A keynote presentation from Andrew Seelhoff, a Mechanical Engineering and Robotics student
- Lightning talks about the intersection between engineering and disability research
- Presentations regarding ways to integrate accessible practices into engineering work/culture
- A student and faculty panel focused on discussing perspectives and experiences navigating academia
- A poster session focused on the intersection between engineering and disability
- Coffee and lunch catered by the university

If you are interested or have any questions, please feel free to reach out. We're also happy to take any suggestions you may have to make this symposium a success.
