Diversity in the Minerals, Metals, and Materials Professions (DMMM2)
July 25-26, 2016 • Norris University Center, Northwestern University • Evanston, Illinois, USA
According to the post-meeting survey, 92% of DMMMM1 attendees said they understand
diversity topics better after participating in the summit.

The DMMM2 Organizing Committee is in the process of finalizing its roster of speakers. Leaders in the field will offer practical experience and advice on what does and doesn’t work in advancing diversity and inclusion in a variety of professional settings. Breakout sessions will draw out ideas that you can implement in your own work situation, while professional development opportunities will equip you with skills to see these ideas through.
