Reflections on Broadening Participation in STEM
Over 50 years ago, concerns about the adequacy of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) talent in the United States were the catalyst to develop programs to ensure that the STEM workforce would be adequate to meet scientific challenges. To date, there have been considerable investments in these programs. To determine where we go from here requires appraising where we stand and reviewing how far we have come. This article presen…
STEM and Social Justice
Diversifying Science and Engineering Faculties
The fields of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) drive economies worldwide. In such knowledge-based economies, no nation can afford to use its human resources inefficiently and ineffectively. Faculties exert a great deal of influence on the science and engineering (S&E) enterprise insofar as they conduct cutting-edge research as well as educate and train the S&E labor forces. This article focuses on the dynamics of the inter…
Women of color in it
Research on the degree trends in information technology focuses either on gender OR racial gaps. Since degree trends are different for women of color than for white women, it may be the case that what works for one group will not work for the other. Therefore, policy designed to increase women of color in the information technology workforce should be based on research on women of color. In the absence of such research, policy is often based on r…
