Women of Color in STEM Programs Research Study

Dr. Kerrie Wilkins-Yel in the Department of Counseling & Educational Psychology at Indiana University is currently conducting a study that seeks to understand the gendered and racialized experiences that graduate and postdoctoral women of color may experience in their science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) programs.

In order to participate in this study, students must:
  • Identify as female
  • Belong to any of the following racial/ethnic group(s):
    • Hispanic/Latinx
    • Black/African American
    • Native American
    • Asian American
    • Alaskan Native/Pacific Islander
  • Be currently enrolled in a graduate or post-doc STEM program

If you agree to participate in this study, you will be asked to answer a series of questions assessing your experiences with gendered and racialized encounters in your STEM graduate or postdoctoral program. This survey should take you approximately 40 minutes to complete.
