THE 33RD BEYA STEM GLOBAL COMPETITIVENESS CONFERENCE


Dear Corporate, Government, Military, and Student Leaders:

Welcome to the 33rd Black Engineer of the Year Awards (BEYA) Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) Global Competitiveness Conference. I chair the Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) Council of Engineering Deans, and it is my honor to join my fellow Deans and our conference co-hosts – Lockheed Martin Corporation and US Black Engineer & Information Technology magazine – in encouraging you to actively engage in the BEYA Experience and the opportunities this conference offers you to learn, to connect, and to build partnerships and collaborations. As you consider what this year’s conference theme: “At the Intersection of America’s Future”, means to you, we hope this conference will energize you to apply your STEM knowledge and personal strengths to help propel the nation progressively forward.

BEYA is a unique conference, and its occurrence every February is by design and purpose to celebrate great achievements in the STEM professions, with a special emphasis on engineering. Whether this is your first time at the conference or your 33rd year, we anticipate that your BEYA Experience will support your resolve to ensure that your contributions positively impact your region, the nation, and the world. Participating in the exciting array of conference workshops provides opportunities to engage in conversations on topics ranging from engineering-based innovations and breakthroughs, to the application of analytics to leverage data for informed decision making and predictions, to entrepreneurship and leadership. BEYA also includes College and pre-College programming in recognition of the responsibility we all share to guide and encourage the next generation. Most of all, BEYA provides visibility of the many ways in which academic, government, and corporate partners work together to create STEM-based solutions, and the people leading the way. Congratulations to all BEYA 2019 awardees being honored at this year’s conference.

As is our tradition, this year’s events will conclude with the BEYA Gala, where the achievements of many of this year’s BEYA awardees will be recognized. The highlight of the Gala will be honoring the 2019 recipient of the “Black Engineer of the Year Award”. Congratulations to this year’s awardee – Anthony Mitchell – Executive Vice President of Booz Allen Hamilton on his impressive accomplishments.

A special thank you to Aerotek for sponsoring this 33rd BEYA STEM Conference, and once again, thank you all for joining us for this year’s BEYA Experience. I am confident that you will have an excellent weekend.

Sincerely,

Robin N. Coger, Ph. D.

Conference Co-Host

Dear BEYA Participants:

Welcome to the 2019 BEYA STEM Global Competitiveness Conference.

At Lockheed Martin, we are proud to partner with USBE&IT Magazine and the Council of Engineering Deans at Historically Black Colleges and Universities to co-host this event.

Every year, BEYA attracts some of the brightest minds from across the disciplines of science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM). At this conference, students, educators, and industry leaders come together to ensure the African-American community continues to shape the future of innovation.

This year’s conference theme, “At the Intersection of America’s Future,” is a reminder of the critical role of science and engineering in our society. The doors of opportunity we open today will be the gateway to a better tomorrow, as we work to unleash the potential of African-American men and women in the STEM fields.

At Lockheed Martin, we know what it takes to solve the world’s most complex and pressing challenges. We understand that in order to protect lives, advance scientific discovery, and create revolutionary technologies, our nation must have a strong and diverse STEM workforce.

For 33 years, our partnership with BEYA has helped connect us with our nation’s talent. Together, we have worked to build a more inclusive society, expand hope, and drive shared progress.

This conference also provides an opportunity to honor extraordinary African-American scientists, engineers, and leaders who have made a difference in the STEM fields. Our hope is that such recognition is an example and inspiration to those rising in their careers.

So on behalf of the 100,000 men and women of Lockheed Martin, I want to congratulate the 2019 Black Engineer of the Year Award winners, including the 31 Lockheed Martin employees who will be honored this year. And for all those attending BEYA, we hope that over the next three days you will be inspired and energized by the stories you hear, the people you meet, and the connections you make.

Enjoy the conference!

Sincerely,

Marillyn A. Hewson

2018 Black Engineer of the Year

Greetings BEYA Conference Participates,

As General Motors’ Executive Vice President for Global Manufacturing and the recipient of the 2018 Black Engineer of the Year, I welcome you to the 33rd Black Engineer of the Year Awards (BEYA) – Science, Technology, Engineering & Math (STEM) Global Competitive Conference. This long-standing conference provides a platform for celebrating engineering excellence; while elevating the need for more diversity and inclusion in STEM fields.

At General Motors, we are focused on engineering a world of zeros: zero crashes, zero emissions and zero congestion. To get there, we know we need highly diverse and inclusive teams driving the innovation necessary to make our vision a reality. We understand the possibility to accelerate innovation when diverse perspectives and experiences intersect.

To the students: Make every moment of this conference count. You will interact with some amazing professionals who are excited to meet you, potentially mentor you, and possibly influence the trajectory of your career. Take as much as you can from these interactions. This is your time to shine and put your best, authentic self forward.

To the STEM professionals and sponsoring organizations: Thank you for supporting BEYA. As many of you know from your own journeys into STEM fields, it is incumbent on us to expose young people to the possibilities rooted in STEM careers. We have a collective responsibility to inspire, challenge, guide and engage those who come behind us.

To tonight’s honorees: Congratulations on your many achievements. And to Anthony K. Mitchell, Executive Vice President, Booz Allen Hamilton, and the 2019 Black Engineer of the Year--your stewardship in using the mantel to promote STEM is absolutely vital to the mission we all hold dear.

And to Tyrone Tayborn and the CCG organization: thank you for your vision to bring together promising students, accomplished professionals and committed companies to help advance the greater STEM agenda. It has been my honor to serve as the 2018 Black Engineer of the Year.

Sincerely,

Alicia Boler Davis Executive Vice President, Global Manufacturing

Greetings to all BEYA Conference Participants

Welcome to BEYA STEM 2019,

This year is the 33rd annual meeting of the Black Engineer of the Year Awards (BEYA) Conference. It’s a pleasure to be at one of the most important events in the BEYA Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) calendar.

As Chairperson of the BEYA Alumni Association, we rededicate ourselves to BEYA’s mission: Create connections between students, educators, and STEM professionals while facilitating partnerships with individuals and their local STEM resources.

The BEYA Alumni Association has come a long way since its humble beginnings.

Soon after retired Navy admiral, Anthony J. Watson won the Black Engineer of the Award (BEYA) in 1988 for Outstanding Achievement in Government; he began discussing the possibility of an alumni association with Tyrone Taborn, publisher of US Black Engineer & Information Technology (USBE) magazine and producer of the BEYA STEM Conference.

Under Taborn’s direction, Watson founded the BEYA Alumni Association with support from Boeing Vice President of Engineering Maintenance and Modification Joan Robinson Berry, who was instrumental in providing the initial funding to get the association up and running

In 2003, the emerging group rededicated its focus to increasing the pipeline of people in STEM to “ensure that there will be Black Engineers of the Year over the next 30 years,” Watson told USBEmagazine in 2006.

Each year, BEYA alumni promote STEM careers in schools, community halls, at conferences, and on campuses tasked with training scientists, technologists, engineers, mathematicians, and promoting excellence in innovation.

Over the next three days, please use every opportunity to network with BEYA alumni while participating in seminars and workshops.

I look forward to meeting you at BEYA 2019,

Gwendolyn E. Boyd Chairperson of the Alumni Group

CCG Alumni Group

What makes BEYA so valuable is that they select the best of the best and recognize the work of a lifetime. Each year, BEYA judges select nominees from a talented pool of promising college students, new hires, mid-career professionals and managers, C-suite executives, innovators, inventors, and change agents. For more than 30 years, the judges have administered the selection process with integrity and distinction. We thank the 2018 judges for their dedication and selfless contribution.
