[Source: ASU News] – Arizona State University is continuing to take a leadership role in efforts to realize the nation’s engineering and science goals.

 

A major step in that commitment was accomplished recently when ASU’s Ira A. Fulton Schools of Engineering presented the National Academy of Engineering Grand Challenges Summit for the Southwest on April 8 and 9 at the Biltmore hotel in Phoenix.

In partnership with the National Science Foundation, the academy has compiled 14 Grand Challenges that identify the technological progress that must be achieved to ensure the nation’s security and prosperity in the 21st century.
