UMass ADVANCE Program Implicit Bias Training and Holistic Review of Graduate Applications

Whether you are aware or not, we all hold biases in the forms of stereotypes and implicit biases. In order to advance our mission to increase diversity, and promote inclusion and a positive campus climate, we need to address implicit bias as early as in the graduate application review process. Join us as we define implicit bias, provide ways to combat it, and introduce practical steps to promote holistic review of graduate applications.

This workshop is co-sponsored by the Graduate School Office of Inclusion and Engagement, the UMass ADVANCE Program, and the Office of Faculty Development.
