2018 Emerging Faculty Impact Award

Hui-Hui Wang received the 2018 Emerging Faculty Impact Award from the College of Agriculture PK-12 Council.

Wang, an assistant professor of agricultural STEM Education, was honored for her efforts to effectively collaborate with faculty in the colleges of Agriculture, Science, Education, and Engineering. She has developed three curricula to engage PK-12 audiences and trained Purdue Master Gardeners and high school teachers in curricula.

She co-developed a new graduate studies course that instructs students how to teach integrated STEM through agriculture, food, and natural resources. Those students developed and implemented lessons at YMCA afterschool programs and for local Girl Scout troops. Across classrooms, communities, and colleagues, Dr. Wang is a rising advocate of advancing STEM education.
