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.
