Women+ in Technology

Women+ in Technology

Welcome to the Big Ten Academic Alliance Women+ in IT community!

The WIT peer group was created in 2018 and sponsored by BTAA CIOs to strengthen recruitment, retention, and advancement of women in IT across the Big Ten.

This diverse group has been created to expand connections to one another, and provide a place for respectful dialogue, timely questions, and broad sharing of best practices and insights.

This group is open to staff, researchers, faculty, and administrators at Big Ten Academic Alliance universities.

Join us for an open discussion about your local WIT Group. If you have a local WIT Group, we would love you to attend to share your experiences with others. If you don't have a local WIT group, we can discuss ideas on how you can start one. Each University WIT group operates very differently, and we will learn from each other!
