On behalf of the STEMM Women Academic Network, we are very excited to invite you to the annual Peer2Peer Promotion Support Networking Event sponsored by the Monash Data Futures Institute.

Target group

This event is for academic women in STEMM who are interested in peer-2-peer mentoring for academic promotion (regardless of whether you intend to submit for promotion this year or in the future).

We are also seeking mentors with previous experience on promotion committees who are available to come along to the event and willing to share their insights and wisdom with potential candidates.

The event is a fantastic opportunity to meet and connect with women from various STEMM faculties and departments at Monash and talk to an experienced mentor about preparing for academic promotion.  It is never too early to start thinking of your promotion so we encourage women of all career stages to avail yourself of this opportunity, regardless of your intention to apply for promotion this year. With this initiative we hope to enable you to prepare better and earlier for promotion and maximise your chance for success.

The STEMM Women Academic Network is a gender initiative of the Athena SWAN Committee aimed at supporting the retention and success of academic women in STEMM disciplines at Monash University. We seek to support career development and success of academic women at Monash, while driving and growing a cultural shift.

Please feel free to join the Network: Become a Member.

We would also greatly appreciate if you could forward this email to other potential candidates who may be interested in the promotion support.  

Hope you can join us!
