Newly tenured associate professor women in STEM in participating institutions were invited by an academic official on their campus to be part of the MAPWISELY project. The second cohort of faculty will complete the following:
1) identify a faculty member from within their institution to serve as a mentor, with consultation of the department chair.
2) complete a Password Protected Baseline Survey to gain insight into the culture and climate perceptions of the home instiuttion, mentoring, and preparation for promotion to full professor. This is due by October 4th so the aggregated information can be used in the design of materials.
3) work with their mentors to design and submit a Faculty Success Plan (FSP) to gain traction on the path to full professor (submit by October 15, 2017).
4) meet on November 2-3, 2017 for a face-face leadership and networking conference at Lehigh University. Registration and housing information will be online.
In between the face-face meetings, mentees will participate in webinars to enhance skill sets and create accountability and community. Mentors will have their own learning community.
