Partnerships for Adaptation, Implementation, and Dissemination (PAID): Collaborative Research - Alliance for the Advancement of Florida's Academic Women in Chemistry & Enginee

佛罗里达五所大型州立大学的工程学院和化学系将联合起来，成立佛罗里达化学与工程女性学术进步联盟（AAFAWCE）。南佛罗里达大学是主要机构，有四个合作伙伴：佛罗里达州立大学，佛罗里达农业和机械大学（FAMU），佛罗里达大学和佛罗里达国际大学（FIU）。该项目将修改和调整先前ADVANCE项目开发的成功项目，重点关注合作院校的工程学院和化学系。该项目将执行以下战略：1)根据威斯康星大学麦迪逊分校（University of Wisconsin, Madison）的研究成果，在学术搜索中招募女性；2)通过俄勒冈大学开发的领导力教练研讨会改变职业生涯；3)根据德克萨斯大学埃尔帕索分校开展的工作，为助理和助理级别的女学者提供咨询和指导。此外，该项目将在所有参与部门中调整和实施一项教师气候调查，该调查最初是由威斯康星大学麦迪逊分校的女性科学与工程领导力研究所（WESLI）开发的。该调查将用于确定与招聘、指导和终身教职过程相关的教师问题。智力优势：该项目将适应以前制定的战略，以佛罗里达州的州立大学联盟。鉴于这五所机构中工程和化学领域的女性教师人数很少，这五所机构之间的合作非常重要。参与项目的各校区工程和化学专业的教师将与系主任、院长和其他管理人员一起参加招聘研讨会。教师将有机会参加教练研讨会，以促进个人的职业发展，并参与指导和建议计划。更广泛的影响：该项目为所有级别的女教师提供机会，与来自佛罗里达州其他校区以及自己校园的其他学科领域的人员一起参与活动。合作包括两个少数民族服务机构；FAMU是一所历史悠久的黑人大学FIU是一所为西班牙裔服务的大学。这个网络将为教师在学术生涯中的进步提供支持。该项目将在全球教育推广网站上发布研讨会视频和其他材料。此外，项目团队希望出版一本专著，其中包括项目团队关于该计划的目标和活动以及联盟活动参与者的章节。

The Colleges of Engineering and Departments of Chemistry at five large state universities in Florida will join together to form the Alliance for the Advancement of Florida's Academic Women in Chemistry and Engineering (AAFAWCE). The University of South Florida is the lead institution with four partners: Florida State University, Florida Agricultural and Mechanical University (FAMU), University of Florida, and Florida International University (FIU). The project will modify and adapt successful programs developed by previous ADVANCE projects focusing on the Colleges of Engineering and Departments of Chemistry at the partner institutions. The project will implement strategies for; 1) recruiting women in academic searches based on work developed at the University of Wisconsin, Madison; 2) transforming careers via leadership COACh workshops developed at the University of Oregon; and 3) advising and mentoring academic women at the assistant and associate levels based on work developed by the University of Texas-El Paso. In addition, the project will adapt and implement a faculty climate survey within all of the participating departments which was first developed by the Women in Science and Engineering Leadership Institute (WESLI) at the University of Wisconsin, Madison. The survey will be used to identify issues for faculty related to recruitment, mentoring, and the tenure process. Intellectual Merit: The project will adapt previously developed strategies to a state-wide consortium of universities in Florida. The collaboration between the five institutions is important given the low numbers of female faculty in engineering and chemistry within these institutions. Faculty in each of the participating campuses' engineering and chemistry programs will participate in recruitment workshops along side department chairs, deans and other administrators. Faculty will have an opportunity to participate in the COACh workshop on advancing one's career and engage in a mentoring and advising program. Broader Impacts: The project provides opportunities for female faculty at all ranks to engage in activities with others in their discipline areas from other Florida campuses as well as on their own campus. The collaboration includes two Minority-Serving Institutions; FAMU which is a Historically Black University and FIU which is a Hispanic-Serving Institution. This network will provide support for the faculty as they progress in their academic careers. The project will post videos of the workshops and other materials on the Global Educational Outreach web portal. In addition, the project team expects to publish a monograph with chapters by the project team on the objectives and activities of the program as well as by the participants in the alliance activities.
