National Center for Women in Information Technology (NCWIT) Pittsburgh

NCWIT convenes, equips and unites change leaders in a wide variety of research- based programs and educational opportunities. More than 22,800 girls, women, and non-binary and genderqueer individuals with diverse identities are being supported by Aspirations in Computing. Teachers and other educators are leveraging NCWIT resources and programs to engage and inspire students. School counselors are learning about computing fields and, in turn, guiding more students to the courses they need. Post-secondary educators are mentoring undergraduate and graduate students alike. And workplace cultures, both corporate and academic, are becoming more inclusive because leaders are owning them, and using research-backed resources and tools to make change – rethinking their organizations and the everyday experiences of those who work in them.
