Our Gender Equity in STEM (GEM) initiatives seek to continue to expand University-wide initiatives and programs that focus on supporting a campus community collaboration towards creating allies for gender equity in STEM; STEM research by women; professional and leadership development for Gender Equity in STEM; and social support and belong for women in STEM.
To support this overall environmental change the Mather Center has launch a professional support and mentorship program for alumnae and community leaders in STEM; launch leadership development programs for women faculty and staff in STEM; delivered gender equity in STEM ally training for the CWRU community; expanded our research and travel grants for students to faculty and staff; and strengthened our collaboration and advocacy for women in STEM by partnering with other existing women and STEM programs on campus and serving as a meeting place and incubator for new programming for women and STEM at CWRU.
WISER is the student organization focused on creating a welcoming environment for all women in STEM programs here at CWRU.
PRISE (Program Rewarding Innovation in STEM Entrepreneurship) provides students with support to pursue entrepreneurship during their undergraduate years.
