The UC Davis ADVANCE program utilizes a four-pronged approach to increasing the participation and advancement of women in the STEM fields. This approach includes: establishment of a Center for Advancing Multi-Cultural Perspectives on Science (CAMPOS), implementation of programs to reduce the impact of unconscious bias, empowerment of STEM women faculty, and a rigorous social science research and evaluation program that is designed to both inform and assess the innovative approach being utilized to create and sustain an inclusive STEM environment. Underlying this multi-faceted approach is a keen focus on the recruitment, retention and advancement of Latina STEM faculty and the development of a STEM workforce that more closely resembles the region. To that end, it is expected that this project will provide much-needed nuance to the understanding of how race, ethnicity and cultural differences interact with personal, familial, institutional, mentorship, and network influences to impact the attractiveness of the academic career path and the professional trajectories of Latina STEM faculty. Given the vast network of UC campuses and innovative dissemination methods, the ADVANCE program at UC Davis will seminally impact the region and other universities nationwide. As such, UC Davis will drive institutional change toward gender equity in numerous institutions of higher education, while promoting the career success of underrepresented STEM faculty and enhancing the potential of academic science through the inclusion of previously underrepresented perspectives.

加州大学戴维斯分校的ADVANCE计划采用四管齐下的方法来增加妇女在STEM领域的参与和进步。这一办法包括：建立一个促进多元文化科学观点中心（CAMPOS），实施减少无意识偏见影响的计划，赋予STEM女教师权力，以及一个严格的社会科学研究和评估计划，旨在为创造和维持包容性STEM环境提供信息和评估创新方法。 这种多方面的方法的基础是对拉丁STEM教师的招聘，保留和晋升以及更接近该地区的STEM劳动力的发展的敏锐关注。 为此，预计该项目将提供急需的细微差别，以了解种族，民族和文化差异如何与个人，家庭，机构，导师和网络影响相互作用，以影响学术职业道路的吸引力和拉丁美洲STEM教师的专业轨迹。 鉴于加州大学校园的庞大网络和创新的传播方法，加州大学戴维斯分校的ADVANCE计划将对该地区和全国其他大学产生重大影响。 因此，加州大学戴维斯分校将推动高等教育机构的性别平等制度变革，同时促进代表性不足的STEM教师的职业成功，并通过纳入以前代表性不足的观点来增强学术科学的潜力。
