You're invited to participate in an evidence-based workshop on gender inclusion in science and engineering, sponsored by the Inclusive Research Team in the Office of the Vice President, Research and International. This interactive session, designed by and for scientists and engineers, examines empirical findings related to stereotyping and bias, along with strategies for increasing inclusion. Topics include organizational values, diversity in teams, overcoming barriers, and promoting a broadly inclusive culture through allyship in research, hiring, and training.

The session will be most relevant to faculty from engineering, physics, math, and other fields where men represent the numerical majority, but all Waterloo faculty are welcome.

Hilary Bergsieker, Waterloo Equity Fellow and Project RISE Co-Lead within the Engendering Success in STEM research consortium, will deliver this interactive workshop tailored for our institution.

Registration deadline is Wednesday, October 4, 2023.
