When it comes to diversity, personal acquaintance and friendships of individuals with diverse characteristics are key to acceptance. This means having the ability to understand the differences, to learn to value them, and eventually, in professional engineering, to work and relate to others to benefit technical outcome, and human growth. The Instrumentation and Measurement Society (IMS) is well aware of this and actively implements this outlook whenever and wherever possible. Our Society's Administration Committee is a bright example of diversity in the scientific and technical area. Getting used to the presence of female professionals is key to encourage young women to pursue this career.
