ADVANCE Institutional Transformation at the University of New Mexico

该方案的目的是促进两性平等，重点是查明和消除阻碍女教师充分参与学术机构和提高其地位的组织障碍。 阻碍公平的组织障碍可能存在于政策、实践、文化和组织氛围等领域。 ADVANCE机构转型（ADVANCE-IT）轨道支持在高等教育机构内制定创新的组织变革战略，以加强科学，技术，工程，新墨西哥州大学（UNM）的ADVANCE-IT项目将创建STEM多样性和公平研究所（IDEAS）。作为机构转型的组织催化剂，促进STEM教师招聘，保留和晋升中的性别平等。 UNM是一个少数民族占多数的州，是一所卡内基非常高的研究活动大学，也是一所拥有多元化学生的西班牙裔服务机构。 该项目将实施战略，让STEM领导者，包括高级教师，作为合作伙伴;创建辅导和网络计划;提高影响教师的政策和流程的透明度。IDEAS将实施社会学家Dobbin和Kalev开发的“管理参与模式”，该模式建议让管理人员参与促进多样性的计划，包括与代表性不足的群体建立联系，增强他们的积极性并改变态度。 IDEAS将展示如何将这种管理参与模式，一种以证据为基础的方法，以促进组织领导的多样性，可以应用于大学。 此外，IDEAS将纳入一个跨部门的视角，以解决STEM中少数群体妇女的独特情况。 IDEAS将提供证据，为比较分析影响不同类型组织提高妇女和少数群体地位的因素以及最适合不同妇女分组的战略提供信息。该项目的目标包括创造一个更具包容性、平等和支持性的体制环境，提高对新墨西哥大学终身教职和晋升过程的满意度和公平感。

The ADVANCE program is designed to foster gender equity through a focus on the identification and elimination of organizational barriers that impede the full participation and advancement of women faculty in academic institutions. Organizational barriers that inhibit equity may exist in areas such as policy, practice, culture, and organizational climate. The ADVANCE Institutional Transformation (ADVANCE-IT) track supports the development of innovative organizational change strategies within an institution of higher education to enhance gender equity in the science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) disciplines.The University of New Mexico's (UNM) ADVANCE-IT project will create the Institute for Diversity and Equity Across STEM (IDEAS) to serve as the organizational catalyst of institutional transformation, promoting gender equity in the recruitment, retention and advancement of STEM faculty. UNM is in a majority-minority state and is a Carnegie Very High Research Activity University and a Hispanic-Serving Institution with a diverse student body. The project will implement strategies to engage STEM leaders, including senior faculty, as partners; create mentoring and networking programs; and improve the transparency of policies and processes that impact faculty.IDEAS will implement a "managerial engagement model" developed by sociologists Dobbin and Kalev which proposes that engaging managers in programs to promote diversity, including connections with underrepresented groups, enhances their motivation and changes attitudes. IDEAS will show how this managerial engagement model, an evidence-based approach to promote diversity in organizational leadership, can be applied to universities. In addition, IDEAS will incorporate an intersectional perspective to address the distinct situations of minority women in STEM. IDEAS will generate evidence to inform comparative analyses of factors influencing the advancement of women and minorities across different types of organizations as well as of the strategies most appropriate to different subgroups of women. The goals of the project include the creation of a more inclusive, egalitarian, and supportive institutional climate and improving satisfaction with, and perceptions of fairness of, the tenure and promotion process at UNM.
