Institutional representatives

Institutional representatives (IRs) are appointed by the president, representing academic and administrative shared leadership to lead a committee charged to develop programming that supports career advocacy, diversity, inclusivity and advancement of women at Wayne State University. Representatives are appointed for a two-year term as chair of the committee. IRs also serve as liaison to the MI-ACE women's Network. Those responsibilities can be found on our get involved page.
