项目摘要

Adaptations for Sustainable Policies and Increased Recruitment Excellence in Diversity (ASPIRED) at the University of Memphis will adapt evidence-based strategies from other ADVANCE institutions to change the institutional climate at the University of Memphis (UM) and increase gender equity in recruitment, hiring, retention, and advancement in STEM. UM needs a strategic institutional investment in recruitment and retention activities, coordinated initiatives across the institution, and improvement of institutional processes to foster a culturally and gender inclusive environment that promotes the advancement of STEM women faculty, especially URMs (Underrepresented minority). The ASPIRED strategies will serve as an exportable best-practice model with impacts far beyond the UM. Diversifying the faculty and improving the climate in STEM departments at UM is an important step towards closing the achievement gap by improving retention (e.g., URM student and faculty) and ultimately enhancing the STEM workforce in the Memphis region and beyond. Additionally, broader participation will be encouraged at the UM through opportunities to participate in UM-Connect STEM webinars, that will increase networking and collaboration as well as exposure to minority STEM leaders and academic leaders of the region.ASPIRED aims to address four problems identified by STEM women faculty: 1) implicit bias, 2) isolation, 3) ambiguity and inequality in career advancement, and 4) poor work-life integration. To do so, ASPIRED will deploy three interventions across all STEM disciplines, each incorporating multiple strategies: UM-Intersect will improve awareness of diversity and inclusion best practices campus-wide to foster an inclusive, culturally responsive work environment through educating search committees, providing training on implicit bias using online case studies, and implementing department climate improvement workshops and grants; UM-Connect will improve social and professional connections to increase women faculty’s sense of belonging and career advancement through networking, and professional development opportunities; UM-Integrate will improve women faculty’s satisfaction with their work-life-family integration by developing a culture that values personal, familial, and professional roles through policy awareness and development as well as work-family integration.The NSF ADVANCE program is designed to foster gender equity through a focus on the identification and elimination of organizational barriers that impede the full participation and advancement of diverse faculty in academic institutions. Organizational barriers that inhibit equity may exist in policies, processes, practices, and the organizational culture and climate. ADVANCE "Adaptation" awards provide support for the adaptation and adoption of evidence-based strategies to academic, non-profit institution of higher education as well as non-academic, non-profit organizations.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

孟菲斯大学的可持续政策的适应和提高卓越的多样性招聘卓越（ASPIED）将适应其他高级机构的基于证据的策略，以改变孟菲斯大学（UM）的机构气候（UM）的机构气候，并增加招聘，招聘，保留，保留和进步的STEM中的招聘，招募，雇用，保留和进步。 UM需要在招聘和保留活动，整个机构的协调举措以及改进机构过程中进行战略机构投资，以促进一种文化和性别包容性环境，从而促进STEM妇女教师的发展，尤其是URMS（尤其是代表性不足的少数民族）。 Aspired的策略将成为一种可导出的最佳实践模型，其影响远远超出了UM。通过改善保留率（例如，URM学生和教职员工）来缩小成就差距的重要一步，使教师多样化并改善了UM的STEM部门的气候，并最终增强了孟菲斯地区及其他地区的STEM劳动力。此外，通过机会参加UM连接STEM网络研讨会，将鼓励更广泛的参与，这将增加网络和协作，并接触该地区的少数群体STEM领导者和学术领导者。为此，Aspired将在所有STEM学科中部署三种干预措施，每种策略都会提高多种策略：UM Intertect将提高人们对校园范围内多样性和最佳实践的认识，以促进包容性，文化响应的工作环境，通过教育搜索委员会，通过教育搜索委员会，通过使用在线案例研究，使用在线案例研究，以及实施部门改善的培训，以及实施型号的案例研究，以及实施部门的气候改善工程和私人的环境工厂和私人私人的工作室和GRANTECT和GRANTIMENT CRAMENTE CRAMENTE CRIMATE CRAVITY WORKENTES和GRANTECT和GRANTECT和GRANTESS和GRANTESS和GRANT和GRANT; UM-Connect将改善社会和专业联系，以通过网络和专业发展机会来提高女教师的归属感和职业发展； UM融合将通过发展一种文化来改善女性教师对自己的工作与家庭融合的满意度，该文化通过政策意识和发展以及工作与家庭的整合来重视个人，家庭和专业角色。NSFAdvance计划旨在通过对组织障碍的识别和进化来促进性别平等，以促进组织障碍的识别和进化，从而促进全面的学术和良好的工具，并在各种方面进行多样化的工作和饮食。抑制公平的组织障碍可能存在于政策，过程，实践以及组织文化和气候中。提前的“适应”奖项为适应和采用基于证据的策略对学术，非营利性高等教育机构以及非学术，非营利组织提供了支持。该奖项反映了NSF的法定任务，并被认为是通过基金会的知识和更广泛影响的评估来通过评估来支持的珍贵的，并被认为是珍贵的支持。
