Spring Collective Learning Session: Strategies for Continuing Departmental Culture Change
Student success in physics extends far beyond grades and academic performance. How can departments better support students’ sense of belonging, well-being, identity development, and long-term engagement in the field?
Creating change is one thing—sustaining it is another. How can physics departments maintain momentum, adapt to evolving challenges, and embed lasting cultural transformation?
This webinar focuses on strategies for continuing and sustaining departmental change efforts over time. Drawing on research and practitioner insights, speakers will explore how to navigate resistance, align stakeholders, and build systems that support long-term progress, even in complex or resource-constrained environments.
Participants will leave with practical tools for advancing culture change, maintaining engagement, and ensuring that efforts to build more inclusive and thriving departments endure.
