Join us for an informal panel and group discussion exploring the experiences of LGBTQIA graduate students, postdocs, researchers, and faculty in STEM fields at Georgia Tech and beyond. Our next meeting will focus on the experiences of queer men and POC in academia. Panelists include professors from Colleges of Business and Engineering. We will also be forming an organizing committee and briefly discussing a plan for continuing Queering STEM in Fall 2017 (and possibly in Summer 2017).

The goal of Queering STEM is to provide opportunities for professional networking, peer-mentoring, and community-building among LGBTQIA graduate and postdoctoral students and allies in STEM disciplines at Georgia Tech.
