Inventive Women: Portraits of Scientists and Engineers from the University of Minnesota

Home | Exhibits | Inventive Women: Portraits of Scientists and Engineers from the University of Minnesota

On display through July 4, 2010.

View photographs of women faculty at the University of Minnesota's Institute of Technology, taken by Nancy G. Johnson, a fine-art photographer who works at the Institute. Johnson, who has exhibited at galleries around Minnesota, notes "In a college that houses 395 faculty, only 39 are women. There are so many problems to solve, so many things that need to be invented. Benjamin Franklin said, 'Energy and persistence conquer all things.' It will take all of us – men and women – to come up with the ideas and solutions to help our world flourish."

This exhibit is offered in conjunction with "Ben Franklin: In Search of a Better World" on view concurrently at the Minnesota History Center.
