The Tennessee State University ADVANCE IT Catalyst project seeks to attract, retain, and promote women faculty engaged in STEM disciplines at TSU. The purpose of the project is to provide STEM women faculty with the support and coordination necessary to propel them to greater numbers and success in academia with an emphasis on scholarly and research productivity. Specifically, the proposed project will collect and assess data in order to design a sustainable, institution-wide strategic and tactical plan to attract and retain tenure-track women faculty in STEM fields. IT-Catalyst support will also serve to finance provide opportunity for personnel to assemble and assess statistical data on the comparative status of TSU STEM women. Intellectual Merit. The intellectual merit of the proposed project is grounded in several key themes, including: the systematic collection and analysis of faculty data regarding recruitment, development and retention of women, including women of color, in STEM fields at TSU; the use of comprehensive source data; and, the investigation into the suitability and effectiveness of best practices developed by emerging research institutions, research intensive institutions and ADVANCE institutions. Broader Impacts. The broader impact of the proposed project lies in enhancing the research enterprise such that the institution builds its capacity to serve as a resource for economic growth in the region. A greater broader impact of this project is that its findings will be useful for other HBCUs and minority serving institutions and serve as an ADVANCE model for these institution types.

田纳西州立大学先进IT催化剂项目旨在吸引、留住和提拔在田纳西州立大学从事STEM学科的女性教员。该项目的目的是为STEM女教员提供必要的支持和协调，以推动她们在学术界取得更多和成功，重点是学术和研究生产力。具体地说，拟议的项目将收集和评估数据，以便设计一项可持续的、全机构范围的战略和战术计划，以吸引和留住STEM领域的终身教职女教师。IT-Catalyst支助还将用于资助，为工作人员提供机会，收集和评估关于台南州立大学STEM妇女相对地位的统计数据。智力上的功绩。拟议项目的学术价值基于几个关键主题，其中包括：系统地收集和分析关于在科技教育管理和管理领域招聘、发展和留住妇女，包括有色人种妇女的教师数据；综合来源数据的使用；以及对新兴研究机构、研究密集机构和高级机构制定的最佳做法的适宜性和有效性的调查。更广泛的影响。拟议项目的更广泛影响在于加强研究企业，使该机构建设其作为该区域经济增长资源的能力。该项目的一个更广泛的影响是，其调查结果将对其他HBCU和少数群体服务机构有用，并作为这些机构类型的先进范本。
