Outreach

Professor Kozminsky has presented her research at outreach events across the ISU campus. Additionally, she is affiliated with the CyMath tutoring program. She participates in Skype a Scientist and serves as a mentor for the Pennsylvania Governor’s School for the Sciences and Letters to a Pre-Scientist. Her past outreach activities at the University of Michigan and UC Berkeley have included: undergraduate and graduate student mentoring, Females Excelling More in Math, Engineering, and the Science (FEMMES), XPlore Engineering, and the Postdoc Teaching Opportunities Program.
