Ole Miss is working toward promoting research for STEM
SUMMARY: Chelsea New is working to promote research for STEM and to draw more women to the field. She received a $300,000 award from the NSF’s advanced program, which aims to eliminate barriers for women faculty in STEM fields. Women currently only make up one-third of STEM occupations. The program will examine university policies in hiring and promotion, and will seek faculty input through surveys and focus groups to better understand personal experiences. This financial support will help advance the goal of promoting research for STEM and increasing the number of women in the field.
