Berkeley Optometry's Angie Godinez Receives Diverse Rising Graduate Scholars Award
Vision Science Ph.D. student Angie Godinez has been named a 2021 Diverse Rising Graduate Scholar, an annual recognition of outstanding minority graduate students poised to make an impact on the academy. Angie, a member of the Levi Lab, is profiled in the March 18, Graduate Education edition of Diverse: Issues In Higher Education.
Dr. Dennis Levi, who nominated Angie wrote, “…Angie is awesome — she is a Chicana and the first in her family to go to college, where she succeeded in completing both a BS in Psychology and an MS in Human Factors in Ergonomics. She entered the PhD Program in Vision Science at UC Berkeley in 2015 and was awarded a Chancellor’s Fellowship — this is an incredibly competitive fellowship, awarded to exceptional applicants who also advance the Regents’ goals for diversification of the academy… She is among the top 3 or 4 graduate students that I’ve worked with in my entire career.”
