本项目的目标是提高留存率 理科本科和研究生中的女性比例 与工程学 在罗切斯特大学， 开展一系列为期一个学期的活动，包括： (1)为教学助理举办的讲习班和讨论会 进入物理系改善课堂气氛 （2）为女学生做演讲和举办 在物理系会议上讨论的问题， 为妇女创造课堂气氛;（3）举行讨论会 旨在改善大学和研究生 （4）评估这些措施的有效性 提高妇女在科学领域的保留率的活动 与工程学 这些活动将在另一个 第二次世界大战期间， 学期.//

The goal of this project is to improve the retention rate of women at the undergraduate and graduate levels in science and engineering. At the University of Rochester they are undertaking a series of semester-long activities which include: (1) workshops and discussion sessions for teaching assistants and entering physics faculty to improve the classroom climate for women students; (2) giving presentations and holding discussions during physics faculty meetings on the issue of classroom climate for women; (3) having discussion sessions with women aimed at improving the college and graduate experience; and (4) evaluating the effectiveness of these activities on improving the retention of women in the sciences and engineering.
