The PIs propose to educate women geoscientists on the barriers to their progress in academiaand on strategies to overcome those barriers. Their goal is to increase the proportion of women ingeoscience tenure track and tenured positions in academia in the United States.Project objectives are to:1) determine the current status of women in academia through a survey of geosciencedepartments in the United States,2) conduct focus groups and surveys of students, tenured and untenured faculty and non-tenuretrack faculty at national geoscience meetings to determine what is the perception of barriersto women's progress in the field,3) hold a 1-day workshop to investigate the causes of the low representation of women inacademic geoscience positions in the United States, and4) Disseminate the information to geoscience students, junior faculty and to academicadministrators to educate women students and faculty on strategies to overcome barriers,encourage women to pursue academic geoscience careers and teach administrators how torecruit and retain qualified women in geoscience.This approach to increasing women's representation in the geosciences takes a 'supply-side' or mentoring approach, with a focus on teaching women what they need toknow to become (i) educated in the field without discrimination, (ii) to negotiate salaries andcontracts, and (iii) to find out what is required to achieve tenure at their institutions.This project is supported by the NSF ADVANCE Program. The overall mission of the ADVANCE Program is to increase the participation of women in the scientific and engineering workforce through the increased representation and advancement of women in academic science and engineering careers.

项目研究所建议对女地球科学家进行教育，使其了解阻碍其在纳米比亚取得进展的障碍以及克服这些障碍的战略。他们的目标是增加美国学术界中获得地球科学终身教职的妇女比例。1）通过对美国地球科学系的调查，确定妇女在学术界的现状，2）在国家地球科学会议上对学生、终身和非终身教职员工和非终身教职员工进行焦点小组和调查，以确定对妇女在该领域进步的障碍的看法，3）举办为期一天的讲习班，调查美国学术地球科学职位中妇女代表性低的原因，以及4）向地球科学专业的学生、初级教员和学术管理人员传播信息，教育女学生和女教员克服障碍的战略，鼓励妇女从事地球科学学术事业，并教育管理人员如何在地球科学领域招聘和留住合格的妇女。该项目的重点是向妇女传授她们需要知道的知识，以便：（一）在该领域不受歧视地接受教育，（二）谈判工资和合同，（三）了解在其机构获得终身职位的要求。高级方案的总体使命是通过增加妇女在学术科学和工程职业中的代表性和地位，增加妇女在科学和工程劳动力中的参与。
