TERC’s Nuria Jaumot-Pascual, Mia Ong, Christina Silva, and Audrey Martínez-Gudapakkam presented their paper “Women of Color in Computing Graduate Education: Structural Supports and Navigation Strategies for a Hostile Culture” at the RESPECT conference on May 27, 2021.
Watch a recording of their presentation here. Download the peer-reviewed conference proceedings from the session Abstract: This paper presents themes that emerge from empirical literature on women of color (WOC) in computer science (CS) graduate education. We ask, according to the literature, what factors affect the experiences, participation, and advancement of WOC in CS graduate degrees? The findings are drawn from a subset of literature on graduate education from our National Science Foundation-funded project, Literature Analysis and Synthesis of Women of Color in Technology and Computing. Findings of on-campus social supports include student support groups and peers who provided community, » Read more
