tailieunhanh - Minorities in the Chemical Workforce: Diversity Models that Work

The Chemical Sciences Roundtable (CSR) was established in 1997 by the National Research Council (NRC). It provides a science-oriented, apolitical forum for leaders in the chemical sciences to discuss chemically related issues affecting government, industry, and universities. Organized by the NRC’s Board on Chemical Sciences and Technology, the CSR aims to strengthen the chemical sciences by fostering communication among the people and organizations—spanning industry, government, universities, and professional associations—involved with the chemical enterprise. The CSR does this primarily by organizing workshops that address issues in chemical science and technology that require national attention | Minorities in the Chemical Workforce Diversity Models that Work A WORKSHOP REPORT TO THE CHEMICAL SCIENCES ROUNDTABLE NATIONAL RESEARCH COUNCIL Of ĨHS NATIONAL ACADỈMĨS Minorities in the Chemical Workforce Diversity Models that Work A Workshop Report to the Chemical Sciences Roundtable Chemical Sciences Roundtable Board on Chemical Sciences and Technology Division of Earth and Life Studies NATIONAL RESEARCH COUNCIL OF THE NATIONAL ACADEMIES THE NATIONAL ACADEMIES PRESS Washington .
