With the help of faculty, MHI created a database of alumni who received their Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering and are pursuing a career in academia. Documented information was provided by alumni and/or alumni advisors. With this information, MHI designed the below poster in 2011, which is showcased annually at the Electrical Engineering Research Festival.
