Christus also serves as the program director of the UW System Alliance for Inclusion, Diversity, Equity and Advancement in STEM. Samantha Larson, assistant public administration professor and Whitburn Center for Governance and Policy Research deputy director, and Alicia Johnson, interim University diversity officer and Women’s Center director, will serve as co-principal investigators. They noted that the grant project is “especially urgent work given the estimation that 25% of tenured STEM faculty will likely retire from UWO within 10 to 15 years.” The researchers plan to use the grant to address and resolve equity concerns across UWO’s three campuses-Fond du Lac, Fox Cities and Oshkosh-that were the byproduct of UW System restructuring in 2018. A multidisciplinary team at the University of Wisconsin Oshkosh has been awarded a nearly $1 million, three-year National Science Foundation ADVANCE grant aimed at increasing and retaining women in academic STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) departments.Īssociate chemistry professor Jennifer Schuttlefield Christus will lead the project as the principal investigator to address intersectional gender equity concerns at UWO identified by previous strategic planning work, a work-life balance study and a recent STEM work climate survey.
