Margo Seltzer
I am now an associate professor of computer science at Harvard University, in our division of engineering and applied sciences.
Elaine Weyuker
I conduct research at AT&T labs, specializing in software testing and metrics - the goal is to develop ways of assuring the dependability and performance of software. AT&T has roughly 450 million lines of software that do everything from running the telephone network to handling billing, and most of these systems run continuously. It is a real challenge to develop techniques to make sure that it all works correctly and efficiently!
Moyra J. McDill
I am a full Professor in the Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at Carleton University. I am the co-author of a bunch of technical papers related to the numerical simulation of manufacturing processes such as welding as well as a number of papers related to women in engineering. Recently I published a book for families coping with cancer.

Cila Herman
I am a professor of Mechanical Engineering at the Johns Hopkins University. In my job as a professor I teach undergraduate and graduate classes in basic heat transfer, thermodynamics, advanced convection, conduction and radiation, aerospace systems and HVAC. I also established the Heat Transfer Laboratory where I work with my students on problems in the field of heat transfer enhancement, electrohydrodynamics, boiling in microgravity under the influence of electric fields, thermoacoustics, visualization and optical tomography. More information on my research is available on my webpage http://titan.me.jhu.edu/~htl/htl.html
Julia Weertman
I'm a professor in the Materials Science and Engineering Department at Northwestern University. I teach one course each quarter and head an active research group consisting of graduate students and post doctoral fellows. We carry out original research on advanced materials such as high-strength, high-temperature aluminum alloys and nanocrystalline materials.
Danielle Forget Shield
I work with chemical plants and manufacturing facilities to help them determine what they should do with the waste products they create. I manage their accounts and serve as a liaison between BFI and the customer for any issue that may arise.
