This summer, Penn State student Neila Raveen helped conduct clinical research at the Allegheny Health Network (AHN) Research Institute. A partnership between Penn State Greater Allegheny and the AHN Research Institute helps provide students with the opportunity to gain hands-on clinical research experience.
The Penn State Greater Allegheny campus will host the Readiness Institute at Penn State’s Summer Program this week for a three-day event that covers community through three different lenses.
Despite the COVID-19 pandemic, the Equity Pedagogy Network increased its reach to four campuses, nine collaborating centers and units and also hosts 130 faculty with about 100 members involved in one of their working groups. Casually referred to as "the Network," the group aims to improve societal outcomes for all students and faculty via improved teaching and learning on equity, bias and diversity.
With goals to enable access to education, engage students, and foster and embrace a diverse world, the Penn State Equity Pedagogy Network works to support and enhance the racial equity work of faculty, staff and administrators across Penn State by developing a community for resource-sharing, collaborative inquiry and reflective practice.
