Dr. My T. Le will tell us about her Stanford class called "Engineering For Good", a place where students examine real-world problems, learn the skills needed to solve them and are expected to produce real results.

Dr. Le received her degrees in Electrical Engineering from UC and UC Berkeley. Her PhD thesis was in the area of integrated circuit design and computer architecture. After completing her education Le joined a start-up company, Granite Systems, and continued to work there after the company was acquired by Cisco Systems. Dr. Le’s research and industry efforts have been at the cutting edge of Internet technology and have resulted in major advances and revenue. At Cisco, Le gained very extensive design/development experience in networking components and experience with both start-up environment and large company politics. Le is currently a Lecturer of EE at Stanford and has taught several courses in the EE department. She is also the founding director of the Stanford Gap For Good Program and serves on the board of directors of the Global Health Research Foundation.
