Recruitment efforts are underway for the BRIDGES Class of 2015. BRIDGES provides an opportunity for women faculty and senior administrative staff to understand and prepare for leadership roles in the academy. Participants hear from experts, engage in panel discussions and share ideas, network, and learn from each other. Almost two hundred NC State women have participated in the program since its inception in 1993. BRIDGES 2015 will take place from September 11 to November 21, 2015. The application deadline is May 1, 2015.

The cost of participation for women selected into the program is covered by the participant’s home department and OIED. For additional information, contact BRIDGES board member Joanne Woodard at 919-515-4559 or jgwoodar@ncsu.edu. See the BRIDGES website for additional information.
