HE Symposium
The 2nd Annual Humanitarian Engineering Symposium has been postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. It will be held in Fall 2020 at the Colorado School of Mines campus. The theme of this year’s symposium is Environmental Justice.
The mission of the Mine HE Symposium is to encourage students and professionals to incorporate the human-centered design approach into their engineering projects and explore the socio-technical nature of real-world problems. It will include guest speakers as well as round-table discussions with local organizations to continue the conversation about social responsibility.
Please check back for updates as new details are finalized!
