UW CSE is one of two dozen “Pacesetter” organizations of the National Center for Women in Information Technology – a fast-track program in which senior executives from universities and corporations commit to increasing their numbers of technical women by working to recruit previously untapped talent pools of technical women and retain women who are at risk of leaving, resulting in “net new” women for their organizations.
In the “Sit With Me” series of video interviews, representatives of the Pacesetter organizations, including UW CSE’s Ed Lazowska, discuss their organizations’ commitments to the goals of NCWIT. See Lazowska’s interview here. Check out the entire Sit With Me series here.
