2019 Midwest Retreat for Diversity in Chemistry (MWRDC)

Event
Friday, July 19, 2019 - 3:00pm to Sunday, July 21, 2019 - 11:30am

Retreat LogoThe Midwest Retreat for Diversity in Chemistry (MWRDC) is modeled after the successful Puget Sound Women Chemists Retreat in 2015 and it is organized by a collaborative team of motivated graduate students and postdocs.


The event will be held July 19-21, 2019 at Luther College in Decorah, IA


The goal of the Midwest Retreat for Diversity in Chemistry is the retention of underrepresented groups in chemistry careers and their advancement into leadership roles. We aim to teach graduate and post-doctoral chemists a positive and proactive approach to their careers. Specifically, we will connect attendees to a close-knit network of colleagues and mentors, teach strategies for career success, and increase awareness about factors that influence their career paths.
