Northwestern has engaged ten STEM departments across three schools and colleges for our local AGEP project, Supporting Inclusive Research Environments at Northwestern (SIREN). The University has taken a varied approach to engaging faculty, which has included meeting with faculty and chairs to discuss individual departmental needs and challenges. Using climate survey data to inform our approaches, Northwestern has run workshops that discuss social identities, graduate student experiences, and topics on factors that influence climate, such as microaggressions.
