In this episode of Engineering the Future, host Jerome James interviews Dr. Philip Asare, the assistant professor at the Institute for Studies in Transdisciplinary Engineering Education and Practice and Dean's Advisor on Black Inclusivity for the University of Toronto’s Faculty of Engineering. Dr. Asare grew up in Ghana and attended the University of Pennsylvania for his undergrad and masters in electrical engineering. He was compelled to pursue electrical engineering after he questioned why prosthetics didn’t connect with the brain in the same way natural limbs do.
