As ASME’s newly elected president, Janis Terpenny wants to sharpen the Society’s value proposition for the next generation of engineers.
Terpenny began her term as ASME’s 145th president in June, after nearly 30 years serving as an active volunteer. Also an ASME Fellow, Terpenny previously chaired ASME’s Intelligent Manufacturing Technology Group and served on the Fellows Review Committee. She also founded, then chaired or co-chaired for a decade, the Broadening Participation Committee (BPart) for the ASME Design Engineering Division.
Terpenny recently sat down with Mechanical Engineering to share how she discovered engineering, found a professional home in the Society, what engineering education still gets wrong, and her priorities for the year ahead.

ASME Techcast talks with Boeing’s Melissa Orme about smart manufacturing, additive manufacturing, and the role of Women in 3D Printing.

As sensing systems move into tougher environments, material choice matters more than ever. In this episode of ASME TechCast, SCHOTT’s Tina Gallo returns to discuss the glass materials inside LiDAR systems and why material selection can make such a difference in performance.
