The University of North Carolina Greensboro (UNCG) ADVANCE Adaptation project will implement activities to improve equity for STEM faculty at UNCG, a minority-serving institution with a diverse student enrollment. The institution has done a self-study to identify equity issues for STEM faculty by gender and have identified promising practices from other ADVANCE grantees as well as at UNCG itself. The UNCG ADVANCE Adaptation project fits well with the campus-wide Strategic Plan and will contribute to the need in the Piedmont of North Carolina region for a well-prepared and diverse STEM workforce.The UNCG ADVANCE project is expected to result in an enhanced "culture of care" by: 1) making promotion and tenure and search committee enhancements and reviewing exit interview data from faculty that leave the institution; 2) mentoring and standardizing the review of external research proposals by the institution and coordinating proposal preparation; and 3) increasing awareness, standardization, and implementation of policies that promote career-life balance at UNCG. These institutional change efforts will be supported throughout the campus by the work of a trained, volunteer, group called Spartans ADVANCE Allies, who will contribute to the creation of an overall "culture of care" at UNCG.The NSF 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 diverse faculty in academic institutions. Organizational barriers that inhibit equity may exist in policies, processes, practices, and the organizational culture and climate. ADVANCE "Adaptation" awards provide support for the adaptation and adoption of evidence-based strategies to academic, non-profit institution of higher education as well as non-academic, non-profit organizations.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.

北卡罗来纳州格林斯伯勒大学（UNCG）ADVANCE适应项目将开展活动，以改善UNCG的STEM教师的公平性，UNCG是一所少数民族服务机构，拥有多样化的学生入学率。 该机构进行了一项自我研究，以确定STEM教师的性别平等问题，并确定了其他ADVANCE受赠者以及UNCG本身的有希望的做法。 UNCG ADVANCE适应项目非常符合校园范围的战略计划，并将有助于满足北卡罗来纳州地区皮埃蒙特对准备充分和多样化的STEM劳动力的需求。UNCG ADVANCE项目预计将通过以下方式增强“护理文化”：1）加强晋升和终身职位和搜索委员会，并审查离开该机构的教师的离职面谈数据; 2）指导和标准化机构对外部研究提案的审查，并协调提案的准备工作; 3）提高对UNCG促进职业与生活平衡的政策的认识，标准化和实施。 这些制度变革的努力将得到整个校园的支持，由一个训练有素的志愿者，称为斯巴达先进盟友，谁将有助于创造一个全面的“文化的照顾”NSF ADVANCE计划旨在通过重点确定和消除阻碍不同教师充分参与和促进学术发展的组织障碍来促进性别平等。机构职能体系 阻碍公平的组织障碍可能存在于政策、流程、做法以及组织文化和氛围中。 ADVANCE“适应”奖为学术、非营利高等教育机构以及非学术、非营利组织提供基于证据的战略适应和采用支持。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
