FORWARD to Professorship conference

May 23-25, 2011

FORWARD in SEM stands for: Focus on Reaching Women for Academics, Research and Development in Science, Engineering and Mathematics is a joint program of the George Washington and Gallaudet Universities funded by a National Science Foundation ADVANCE leadership award. This workshop is provided for women and minorities who may be considering, or are currently in, a tenure track position in science, engineering or mathematics. The workshop is called FORWARD to Professorship. The 2 1/2 day workshop will focus on skills, strategies and “insider information” necessary to obtain a tenure-track position, to succeed in one and advance to other positions of leadership. This is also an opportunity to network and meet peers. Scholarships for workshop registration fees will be provided for all accepted applicants.
