DESCRIPTION:This activity is a Women in Engineering-focused special session
  in the framework the IEEE EDS Summer School 2026. Specifically\, this eve
 nt to be held on October 16 at ITESO in Guadalajara\, spotlighting women&#39;s
  leadership in Mexico&#39;s growing semiconductor industry. The session is anc
 hored by Dr. Alejandra Castro-Carranza\, Chair of the IEEE EDS Professiona
 l Chapter Centro Occidente Section at ENES Morelia UNAM\, whose talk conne
 cts her research in transistor design to training the next generation of L
 atin American engineers\, with a particular focus on women. Of the 75 stud
 ents attending\, special effort will be made to add women participants fro
 m universities across Michoacán and Jalisco within WIE. A moderated panel
  will pair Dr. Castro-Carranza with four academic and industry leaders fro
 m Circuify Semiconductors\, Intel\, and Micron\, giving women students dir
 ect access to mentors and connecting them to internship pipelines in Guada
 lajara&#39;s &quot;Mexican Silicon Valley&quot; ecosystem. A celebratory reception will 
 close the session\, creating space for informal networking. The event will
  be video recorded for the EDS Resource Center\, extending the visibility 
 of women&#39;s contributions across Region 9.\n\nCo-sponsored by: EDS Centro O
