Christine McClure was named among Pittsburgh Ladies Who Lead

Christine McClure, a senior research scientist in Pitt’s School of Public Health, will be recognized at the 2023 Ladies Who Lead event. The Pittsburgh-based organization Professional Women’s Network will spotlight four women who mentor and sponsor other professionals.

McClure’s (GSPIA ’06G, EDUC ’18G) research seeks to understand the intersectional experiences of women of color in higher education contexts to inform the creation of more equitable spaces for minoritized groups.

The longtime University leader serves as board chair for When She Thrives, an organization dedicated to equipping single mothers through advocacy, education and personal and professional development. McClure is also an adjunct professor in the School of Education and Human Development at the University of Miami, where she works with EdD candidates.
