Center for the Study of Women, Science, and Technology at Georgia Institute of Technology
The Georgia Tech Center for the Study of Women, Science, and Technology links issues in the study of science and technology with those of gender, culture, and society. The center brings together faculty and students, addressing issues of gender, science, and technology in research and programmatic initiatives at institutional, national and global levels.

Clayman Institute for Gender Research at Stanford
The Clayman Institute for Gender Research at Stanford University is one of the nation's most distinguished research organizations devoted to the study of gender. The Clayman Institute creates knowledge and seeks to implement change that promotes gender equality at Stanford, nationally, and internationally. Our current focus is on gendered innovations in science, medicine, and technology.

Diversity Institute at the University of Wisconsin-Madison
The Diversity Institute was a professional development program of the Center for the Integration of Research, Teaching, and Learning (CIRTL), funded by the National Science Foundation and based in the Wisconsin Center for Education Research at the University of Wisconsin-Madison.  The mission of the Diversity Institute was to create and disseminate an educational resource base for faculty and future faculty on the topic of diversity in gender, race, nationality, learning style and physical ability in science, technology, math and engineering education. Website includes list of resources, literature review, case book, and syllabi.

NSF Advance Project
The National Science Foundation has awarded several rounds of ADVANCE grants to different academic grantees across America. The goal of the ADVANCE program is to develop systemic approaches to increase the representation and advancement of women in academic science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) careers, thereby contributing to the development of a more diverse science and engineering workforce. Proposals from primarily undergraduate institutions, teaching intensive colleges, community colleges, minority-serving institutions (e.g. Tribal Colleges and Universities, Historically Black Colleges and Universities, Hispanic-Serving Institutions), women's colleges, and institutions primarily serving persons with disabilities are encouraged. To foster ADVANCE's goal, the Advance Portal Website attempts to organize and promote the materials created by each ADVANCE grantee. Includes list of all Advance grantees.

Science and Gender Equity Program at Virginia Tech
SAGE’s primary goal is to improve the status of women in science and engineering. The strategies used to accomplish this include: workshops on gender equity in the college and pre-college classroom are developed and presented to groups within and outside of the university; interdisciplinary research in the sciences, social sciences, and the humanities and arts is encouraged by a small grants program. SAGE distributes the knowledge gained from this research in newsletters and reports.

Women in Science & Engineering Leadership Institute (WISELI) at the University of Wisconsin-Madison
WISELI uses UW-Madison as a "living laboratory" to study gender equity for women in science and engineering, implement solutions, and provide methods and analyses to measure indicators of success. WISELI also disseminates “best practices” in gender equity programming and measurement. Our workshops and materials are in demand by colleges and universities nationally (and even internationally).  WISELI list of University Programs for Women in Science and Engineering

We invite research institutes and university programs from around the world with a gender and science component to send us your web address so that we can link to your site. Please contact Linda Baker at linda.baker@berkeley.edu or Charis Thompson at charis.thompson@gmail.com
