Benedict College Celebrates Stem Week

The college will highlight its innovative programs with various activities throughout the week, including an All College Assembly on Tuesday, April 9, 2013 at 11:00 a.m. in Antisdel Chapel on the College?s main campus. The Keynote Speaker will be Lauren M. Berrings Davis, Ph.D., Associate Professor, Department of Industrial and System Engineering, North Carolina A&T University, Greensboro, NC.

Her research area is largely focused on analyzing the impact of emerging trends (increased availability of information, disruptions caused by supply shortages, and natural or man-made disasters) on optimal stocking decisions within a supply chain.

Benedict College will also host the South Carolina Academy of Science 2013 Annual Meeting on Saturday, April 13, 2013. The theme is Health Challenges: Raising the Bar. More than 500 graduate, undergraduate, and high school students from all over the state will converge on the Benedict College campus to present their research projects.
