Building Bridges: Leveraging External Partnerships to Strengthen S-STEM Scholar Success

Building on the foundation of institutional collaboration explored in “Unlocking Success: Integrative Approaches to Identifying S-STEM Scholars”, this second installment of our Faculty Webinar Series shifts focus to the power of external partnerships in advancing S-STEM scholar success. This session will examine how strategic collaborations with other institutions, industry partners, community organizations, professional societies, and other external stakeholders can enhance scholar identification, create meaningful engagement opportunities, and strengthen pathways to career success. The webinar will feature speakers from three S-STEM projects at different stages, who will share real-world examples and best practices for developing, sustaining, and leveraging external partnerships. Whether you attended Part One or are joining us for the first time, this session will provide actionable strategies and collaborative opportunities to expand your program’s reach and impact through external networks.
