21世纪劳动力发展的关键需求之一是女性在STEM领域的招聘、保留和毕业。研究表明,女性退出学术课程,离开职场,以应对经济困难,倾向于履行个人义务,并在军事项目中提供服务。重要的是,这些妇女,即归国妇女,有重新进入大学的途径和发展事业的机会。STEM领域的一些领域,如计算机科学中的新兴技术(EmTech),预计将比传统领域更快地增加就业机会。这些工作的需求只能通过为未开发的STEM人才库(包括回国的女性)创造途径来满足。因此,我们提议一个小组来讨论女性进入STEM教育和职业道路所面临的障碍和机会,特别是在EmTech领域。专家小组将提供不同的观点,引发对话和反思。该小组的目标是分享经验、建议和想法,以提高对妇女所面临的复杂挑战的认识现状,并支持妇女重新进入教育和专业管道的结构。
One of the critical needs of the 21st-century workforce development is the recruitment, retention, and graduation of women in STEM fields. Research suggests that women drop out of academic programs and leave the workforce to deal with financial setbacks, tend to personal obligations and offer service in military programs. It is important these women, i.e. returning women, have pathways for reentry to college and opportunities to advance their careers. Some areas within STEM fields, such as Emerging Technology (EmTech) in computer science are expected to experience increases in job opportunities more quickly than traditional areas. The demands of these jobs can only be fulfilled by creating pathways for untapped STEM talent pools, including returning women. Therefore, we propose a panel to discuss the barriers and opportunities women face (re-)entering the STEM education and career paths, especially in EmTech fields. The panel of experts will provide different perspectives to spark conversation and reflection. The objective of the panel is to share experiences, advice, and ideas to advance the current state of knowledge about the complex challenges that women encounter and support structures for their reentry to the education and professional pipeline.
