The Association for Women in Science (AWIS) is a recognized national leader andinnovator in developing mentoring and leadership programs. AWIS proposes to build ona previous project on academic climate funded by the Sloan Foundation.This project developed surveys for assessing the institutional climate for undergraduate students, graduate students, and faculty. In addition to surveys, site visit protocols were developed for campus visits. Nine centralissues for faculty emerged from this work: (1) Recruitment, hiring, and retention; (2)Tenure and promotion; (3) Dual careers; (4) Family and work; (5) communication; (6)Mentoring faculty; (7) Mentoring students; (8) Informal networking and socializing; and(9) Career development.Recommendations were developed to address these issues and sample model policieswere collected. AWIS has been involved in the dissemination of these materials for thepast three years. Recently, with the MIT Report, the demand has outpaced the ability ofAWIS to supply materials on an individual basis. AWIS proposes to develop an on-lineInstitutional Climate Assessment Kit that institutions can use to implement their ownprograms. In addition to the kit, AWIS will have a section on Model Academic Policiesthat address many of the nine topics listed above and a bi-weekly on-line column thattackles these issues. As a result of the proposed project, AWIS anticipates three clear and realistic outcomes, including (1) An institutional Climate Assessment Kit that will provide an evaluated and tested model for replication by the institutions; (2) Model Academic Policies that can be used by science societies and institutions; and (3) explicit professional science societylinkages that will facilitate replication and sustainability of the project.This project is supported by the National Institutes of Health through 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

科学界女性协会（AWIS）是开发指导和领导力项目方面公认的国家领导者和创新者。AWIS建议建立一个由斯隆基金会资助的关于学术氛围的项目。该项目开发了评估本科生、研究生和教师的机构氛围的调查。除了调查外，还为校园访问制定了实地访问协议。教师的九个核心问题从这项工作中浮现出来：（1）招聘，雇用和保留;（2）终身教职和晋升;（3）双重职业;（4）家庭和工作;（5）沟通;（6）指导教师;（7）指导学生;（8）非正式网络和社交;（9）职业发展。AWIS在过去三年中参与了这些材料的传播。最近，根据麻省理工学院的报告，需求已经超过了AWIS提供个人材料的能力。AWIS建议开发一个在线机构气候评估工具包，机构可以使用它来实施自己的计划。除了工具包，AWIS将有一个关于示范学术政策的部分，解决了上面列出的九个主题中的许多问题，并有一个双周在线专栏来解决这些问题。作为拟议项目的结果，AWIS预计将产生三个明确且现实的成果，包括（1）机构气候评估工具包，该工具包将提供经过评估和测试的模型供机构复制;（2）可供科学协会和机构使用的学术政策模型;以及（3）明确的专业科学社会联系，这将有助于复制和项目的可持续性。通过NSF ADVANCE计划获得健康。ADVANCE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
