This paper starts with a discussion of forensic imaging and its importance to robotics, computer forensics, and computer security. This is followed by a discussion of a computer science based robotics class that received favorable student opinion reports as well as accolades by the press. The class also inspired young women to pursue careers in STEM fields. Lastly we will discuss the need for project based lessons in STEM education and the need to increase the number of women in STEM fields in order to advance government, academia, and industry.
