The second annual Inclusive Academy (IA) Symposium is an in-person
diversity conference focused on supporting graduate students and
post-doctoral scholars from underrepresented backgrounds, on an array of
topics related to success in the academy and on the job market. The
symposium is focused on bringing graduate students and post-doctoral
scholars from underrepresented backgrounds together while also providing
a platform to discuss critical topics for thriving and success through a
holistic and intersectional lens.
We will host panels, speakers, and workshops that enhance their
knowledge and understanding of topics related to academic
entrepreneurship, cultivating joy, interviewing, salary negotiations,
and financial literacy in addition to strengthening their leadership,
public speaking, networking, and storytelling skills.
