Expertise: Engineering education research, human-centered design, humanitarian engineering, biomedical engineering

As an ASU undergraduate, Mark Huerta co-founded and led an Engineering Projects in Community Service endeavor that became 33 Buckets, a nonprofit organization that provides clean water to underserved communities.

Now Huerta is excited to return to ASU as a lecturer to teach Introduction to Engineering and EPICS design courses.

Years of working to expand 33 Buckets “has provided me with a wealth of experiences” like entrepreneurship and innovation, non-profit leadership and management and humanitarian engineering, says Huerta.

He hopes to help students cultivate a growth mindset toward their pursuit of engineering careers.
