On Monday, March 18, the Division of Equity, Justice, & Inclusive Excellence at UC Merced held a luncheon to acknowledge the profound impact and outstanding professional dedication of women in the university community — and Erin Hestir, campus director of CITRIS at UC Merced and associate professor of civil and environmental engineering, was among seven honorees.
“Erin recently assumed the (CITRIS) role and is already excelling, ably managing her team and providing strategic vision around creating information technology solutions for society’s most pressing challenge,” said her nominator’s letter.
