UO LGBT+ in STEM aims to create a community for LGBT+ people in the science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) fields, while providing education around LGBT+ issues for all people in the STEM fields. By increasing the visibility of queer identifying people in the STEM fields, we aim to demonstrate the benefits of diversity in the sciences

We aim to provide safe spaces for all peoples through monthly meet-ups of LGBT+ graduate students, faculty, and staff and through educational seminars about LGBT issues in the sciences.
