Submit a Proposal

AAC&U and Project Kaleidoscope (PKAL) invite proposals for sessions that will empower faculty, staff, and administrators to critically question, explore, and examine some of the most vexing challenges of STEM higher education reform today. The deadline to submit proposals for early decision is July 11, 2023. The final deadline to submit a proposal is August 15, 2023.

AAC&U and its Project Kaleidoscope (PKAL) invite proposals for the annual Transforming STEM Higher Education Conference, a seven-star professional development experience that advances undergraduate STEM education reform by providing a national platform for the diverse perspectives and experiences of STEM faculty, particularly those from historically marginalized groups and institutions, to be inserted into national STEM reform discourse. This conference offers attendees a chance to disseminate curricular innovations, build community, co-learn, and gain capacity for manipulating the many levers of change that can positively influence institutional and individual transformation.

All presentations will be delivered in-person.
