Webinar: Supporting Students with Disabilities in Computing Research

This webinar will focus on practical strategies and recommendations for creating more inclusive research opportunities for students with disabilities. Since the fall of 2024, the AccessUR2PhD program has engaged with undergraduates, grad students, and faculty in computing fields via mentoring circles, focus groups, and discussions to learn more about the experiences of students with disabilities in research. In this webinar, we’ll share the strategies that students and mentors identified as most effective in supporting students with disabilities on research and graduate school pathways.   The University of Washington is committed to providing access and accommodations in its services, programs, activities, and events. To make a request connected to a disability or health condition, contact DO-IT at doit@uw.edu by July 20th, 2026.   We hope you can join us! Please share this announcement with others who may be interested in attending. Event interval: Single day event. Online Meeting Link: https://washington.zoom.us/j/92572304906. Accessibility Contact: doit@uw.edu. Event Types: Meetings. Event sponsors: AccessUR2PhD, which aims to support underrepresented individuals with disabilities on the pathway from being an undergraduate researcher to earning a PhD in a computing field. The project is funded by the Computing Research Association UR2PhD program and administered by AccessComputing staff. Wednesday, August 5, 2026, 11:00 AM – 12:00 PM.
