About

Carlotta Berry is a pioneering robotics educator and engineer whose work sits at the intersection of robotics curriculum development, multidisciplinary engineering education, and diversity in STEM. A faculty member at Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology, Berry has dedicated her career to making robotics accessible and engaging across all educational levels, from K-12 through graduate study. Her most cited work, "Robotics for All Ages" (2016, 18 citations), reflects her commitment to standardizing robotics instruction within STEM education, while her research on flipped classroom methodologies (2017, 16 citations) demonstrates her innovative approach to pedagogy. Berry played a central role in shaping the broader field through her contributions to the Future of Mechatronics and Robotics Education workshop series, culminating in a highly regarded paper on practical skills development (2020, 11 citations). Her mobile robotics courses and multidisciplinary certificate programs at Rose-Hulman have become models for integrated undergraduate engineering education. Beyond curriculum design, Berry is a vocal advocate for equity in engineering. Her work examining the experiences of women of color in engineering faculty positions underscores her commitment to systemic change. With technical expertise spanning human-robot interaction and aerial robotics, Berry exemplifies the rare combination of scholarly rigor and transformative educational leadership.
