The project has two primary research activities to be conducted over 4 years (Fall 2023 – Summer 2027). Study 1 involves surveying 1800 tenure-track STEM faculty at U.S. R1 and R2 universities nationally to examine the relationship between epistemic exclusion and career outcomes. Study 2 involves conducting 12 focus groups with a subsample of Study 1 participants to explore how epistemic exclusion is uniquely experienced, understood, and impactful by career stage (early, mid, senior) and strategies faculty use to mitigate its effect on careers outcomes.
