Ep 24 –Industrial & Systems Engineering to PhD in Engineering Education with Fatima Kebe

On this episode of the Engineers Hub Podcast, PhD Candidate Fatima Kebe joins us to discuss her engineering career thus far from starting with a BS Degree in Industrial & Systems Engineering to now pursuing her doctorate in Engineering Education with a focus on Senegalese Youth in non-formal learning settings. 

Fatima first discovered engineering while in high school through one of her many extracurricular activities. That discovery led her to pursuing a BS Degree in Industrial & Systems Engineering at The Ohio State University and working for Ford after graduation as an Industrial Engineer. She eventually pursued and completed her MS in Engineering Management at the University of Michigan and is currently pursuing her doctorate in Engineering Education at Virginia Tech. 

Outside of work and her studies, she enjoys spending time with her family and remaining involved in her community. She has been serving as the Vice President of Programs at SenEcole for over 4.5 years, where over 850 middle school, high school, university students, and mentors have participated thus far in the annual robotics competition
