called “On-Ramps into Academia.”(http://www.engr.washington.edu/onramp/)The goal of On-Ramps into Academia was to increase the pool of women faculty available to alluniversities by providing professional development to PhD-level women in industry or researchlaboratories who wished to transition into faculty positions. Unlike the more traditional strategyof institutions recruiting female faculty from other universities to increase the number of femalefaculty in science and engineering departments, this strategy increases the number of femalefaculty nationally. On-Ramps is a new approach to faculty recruitment. PhDs in science andengineering can leverage their nonacademic skills and experiences into successful careers asfaculty members.Interviews
