Montana State University proposes to transform their main campus through a systematic approach that operationalizes Self-Determination Theory (SDT). Guided by their institutional context, the social science literature, and the tenets of SDT they propose a number of activities to achieve three main goals established to increase the participation and advancement of women in the STEM fields. Their goals include improving research capacity; improving work-life balance; and improving cultural attunement. To achieve these goals they propose several unique initiatives including the development of policy to encourage interdisciplinary research; a care-giving leave donation pool; and the use of diversity depth hires (incentives to hire women in STEM departments with low representation.) Their robust test of SDT has strong potential for broader impacts both on their regional campuses and across the country.

蒙大拿州立大学提议通过实施自决理论（SDT）的系统方法来改造其主校区。 在其机构背景、社会科学文献和特殊和技术原则的指导下，他们提出了一些活动，以实现为增加妇女在STEM领域的参与和提高妇女地位而确立的三个主要目标。 他们的目标包括提高研究能力;改善工作与生活的平衡;以及改善文化协调。 为了实现这些目标，他们提出了几项独特的举措，包括制定鼓励跨学科研究的政策;护理假捐赠池;以及使用多样性深度雇用（激励在STEM部门雇用女性，但代表性较低）。 他们对SDT的强有力的测试有很大的潜力在他们的地区校园和全国范围内产生更广泛的影响。
