Stella Daniels Oral History Description An account of the resource Stella Lawrence Daniels' career spans both industry and academia. With a master's in mathematics and physics from New York University, Daniels went on to pursue engineering. Before graduating with a master's in electrical engineering from the Polytechnic Institute of Brooklyn in 1952, Daniels began her engineering career as a development engineer and mathematician during WWII. It was during her post-war tenure at Bell Telephone Laboratories that Daniels began teaching electrical circuits in the evenings at Pratt Institute and physics in the evenings at The City College of New York. Daniels made the full-time switch to academia a couple of years later, becoming an assistant professor in electrical engineering technology at Bronx Community College where she retired as full professor in 1988.Even though the bulk of her career was in teaching engineering, Daniels maintained her ties to industry with consulting jobs, such as one at NASA during her summers between 1975 - 1992. A charter member of SWE, Daniels holds distinctions in several other professional engineering societies. She is a fellow and first woman member of the Brooklyn Engineers Club; a senior member, 20-year executive committee member, and 1978 Professional Achievement award winner of IEEE; and was the first woman president of the Technical Societies Council Of New York 1970-72.
