ADVANCE Visiting Scholars Program

The University of Washington's ADVANCE Center for Institutional Change announces a Visiting Scholars Program. We seek to host nationally-recognized scholars in the sciences, engineering, and mathematics (SEM) or in fields that study SEM workforce issues.

The Visiting Scholars Program will provide networking opportunities for faculty, visibility for women scholars, and opportunities for faculty and scholars to work together to highlight research in issues surrounding gender and SEM, review programs and goals, and develop collaborations.

The program is funded through a National Science Foundation ADVANCE Institutional Transformation award aimed at increasing the representation and advancement of women faculty in SEM. To learn more about the Center for Institutional Change (CIC), see http://www.engr.washington.edu/advance/. The proposal that was submitted to the NSF by the UW can be downloaded from this web site.

The Visiting Scholars Program has two purposes. Individuals are invited to work with us to help achieve ADVANCE's programmatic goals or to be a Visiting Scholar in an ADVANCE SEM department.
