Participants at Project Elevate

Project Elevate

Project ELEVATE is a roadmap for change that begins with a collaborative partnership among peer institutions – Johns Hopkins University (JHU) Carnegie Mellon University (CMU), New York University (NYU), along with institutional leadership buy-in, equity-minded partners, higher education expertise, and culturally responsive evaluators. 

The collaborative team created development pathways that provide inclusive professional development practices for their entire engineering community, an identity affirming mentorship program for AGEP faculty, and an equity-focused institutional change.  

These outputs inform institutional leaders who advance equity and AGEP faculty members who are empowered for career advancement.
