    To facilitate a multi-faceted community of learning and practice for Sloan’s Creating Equitable Pathways to STEM Graduate Education grantees

    • Program Higher Education
    • Investigator Travis York

    This grant provides renewal funds to the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) to continue the design and facilitation of a hybrid learning community for grantees of Sloan’s Creating Equitable Pathways to STEM Graduate Education (Equitable Pathways) initiative, which invests in educational pathways from Minority Serving Institutions (MSIs) to STEM graduate programs nationwide.   AAAS takes a three-pronged approach to advance projects, partnerships, and pathways within the grantee community. Namely, 1) leveraging collective action, shared capacity building, and equitable practices to accelerate change; 2) empowering and equipping Sloan grantees to integrate sustainable practices toward creating lasting and long-term impact; and 3) generating and disseminating knowledge that advances understanding of equitable partnerships between MSIs and non-MSIs.   Funded activities under this grant include, orchestrating a suite of virtual offerings, including monthly cohort and quarterly community sessions that promote learning and discussion both within and across grantee cohorts; providing access to AAAS’s online SEA Change resources, such as synchronous and asynchronous courses, joint virtual sessions with SEA Change members, and community interviews with leading subject matter experts; hosting an annual in-person, joint conference for Equitable Pathways community participants and the broader SEA Change community; and developing and conducting mixed-methods research that will identify the key determinants of equitable, productive, and long-lasting relationships between MSIs and their institutional partners.
