North Carolina State University, North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University and the University of North Carolina at Charlotte, are collaborating to develop, implement and study the AGEP North Carolina Alliance model for creating institutional, department-level and faculty change to promote historically underrepresented minority US citizens who are completing their STEM doctoral degrees and progressing into faculty positions.This alliance was created in response to the NSF's Alliances for Graduate Education and the Professoriate (AGEP) program solicitation (NSF 16-552) The AGEP program seeks to advance knowledge about models to improve pathways to the professoriate and success of historically underrepresented minority (URM) graduate students, postdoctoral fellows and faculty in specific STEM disciplines and/or STEM education research fields. AGEP Transformation Alliances develop, replicate or reproduce; implement and study, via integrated educational and social science research, models to transform the dissertator phase of doctoral education, postdoctoral training and/or faculty advancement, and the transitions within and across the pathway levels, of URMs in STEM and/or STEM education research careers. This Alliance is also funded by the NSF's Historically Black Colleges and Universities - Undergraduate Program (HBCU-UP). As the nation addresses a STEM achievement gap between URM and non-URM undergraduate and graduate students, our universities and colleges struggle to recruit, retain and promote URM STEM faculty who serve as role models and academic leaders for URM students to learn from, work with and emulate. Recent NSF reports indicate that URM STEM associate and full professors occupy 8% of these senior faculty positions at all 4-year colleges and universities and about 6% of these positions at the nation's most research-intensive institutions. The AGEP North Carolina Alliance has the potential to advance a model to improve the success of URM graduate students and faculty in the STEM professoriate. The AGEP North Carolina Alliance will employ institutional change strategies to improve the climate, practices and policies that positively impact URM graduate students and faculty in STEM. The Alliance engages university provosts and deans, as well as department heads, department-level faculty leaders and department graduate directors, to lead the transformation in science, engineering and computer science departments. The integrated research will examine faculty mentor training and barriers, and quality, of mentoring URM graduate student experiences. The formative evaluation is being conducted by Education Designs, Inc and the summative evaluation is conducted by Iowa State University's Research Institute for Studies in Education. There is an external advisory committee which will provide feedback to the team on the effectiveness and outcomes of the project, as well as the research, evaluation and dissemination work.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

北卡罗来纳州州立大学、北卡罗来纳州农业和技术州立大学以及位于夏洛特的北卡罗来纳州大学正在合作开发、实施和研究AGEP北卡罗来纳州联盟模式，部门-水平和教师的变化，以促进历史上代表性不足的少数美国公民谁是完成他们的STEM博士学位，并进入教师职位进展。响应NSF的研究生教育联盟和教授（AGEP）计划征集（NSF 16-552）AGEP计划旨在推进有关模型的知识，以改善历史上代表性不足的少数民族（URM）研究生，博士后研究员和教师在特定STEM学科和/或STEM教育研究领域的教授和成功的途径。AGEP转型联盟开发，复制或复制;实施和研究，通过综合教育和社会科学研究，模型来改变博士教育，博士后培训和/或教师晋升的论文阶段，以及在STEM和/或STEM教育研究职业中的URM的途径水平内和跨途径水平的过渡。该联盟还得到了NSF历史上的黑人学院和大学-本科生计划（HBCU-UP）的资助。随着国家解决URM和非URM本科生和研究生之间的STEM成就差距，我们的大学和学院努力招聘，留住和推广URM STEM教师，他们作为URM学生学习的榜样和学术领袖，与之合作和效仿。最近的NSF报告表明，URM STEM副教授和正教授在所有4年制学院和大学中占这些高级教师职位的8%，在美国最研究密集型的机构中占这些职位的6%。AGEP北卡罗来纳州联盟有可能推进一种模式，以提高URM研究生和教师在STEM教授的成功。AGEP北卡罗来纳州联盟将采用制度变革战略，以改善气候，实践和政策，积极影响URM研究生和教师在干。 该联盟让大学教务长和系主任以及系主任、系一级教师领导和系研究生主任参与，领导科学、工程和计算机科学系的变革。 综合研究将检查教师导师培训和障碍，质量，指导URM研究生的经验。形成性评价由教育设计公司进行，总结性评价由爱荷华州州立大学的教育研究所进行。 有一个外部咨询委员会，将提供反馈给团队的有效性和成果的项目，以及研究，评估和传播工作。这个奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并已被认为是值得支持的评估使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准。
