About Us

Graduate Women in Science (GWIS) aims to promote women’s voices, empower women in society and at all levels of their professional development, and provide a space for women scientists to network and share experiences. We provide opportunities for career development and connections with graduate students and professionals from different programs and pathways in STEM. With the establishment of our chapter in 2023, we encourage leadership and provide opportunities for mentorship and networking, collaboration with other campus groups, and engage in the broader Columbus/Ohio community. GWIS aims to advance the participation and recognition of women in science and foster research through grants, awards, and fellowships.
