The Florida Gulf Coast University (FGCU) will undertake an institutional self-assessment to identify potential organizational inequities (unjust or unfair) policies and practices that result in differential professional outcomes for some STEM faculty. The ADVANCE Catalyst project will result in a five-year STEM faculty equity plan tailored to the FGCU context and institutional data that will guide institutional actions to address any issues identified during the grant. FGCU is a relatively new institution compared to other ADVANCE institutions having been established in 1997.The institutional self-assessment and five-year strategic plan will set a foundation to improve equity for STEM faculty at the institution. This work will benefit STEM disciplines as well as non-STEM disciplines due to the interconnected nature of institutional policy. Results of the Catalyst project will be regularly communicated with the FGCU community and involves an advisory board of key upper administrators. The project outcomes will be shared with the ADVANCE community and others through a website, presentations, and peer-reviewed publications.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 "Catalyst" awards provide support for institutional assessments and the development of five-year faculty equity strategic plans at an academic, non-profit, institution of higher education.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.

佛罗里达墨西哥湾沿岸大学（FGCU）将进行机构自我评估，以确定潜在的组织不公平（不公正或不公平）的政策和做法，导致一些STEM教师的专业成果不同。ADVANCE Catalyst项目将根据FGCU的背景和机构数据制定一项为期五年的STEM教师公平计划，该计划将指导机构采取行动，以解决赠款期间发现的任何问题。与1997年成立的其他ADVANCE机构相比，FGCU是一个相对较新的机构。该机构的自我评估和五年战略计划将为提高该机构STEM教师的公平性奠定基础。由于机构政策的相互关联性，这项工作将有利于STEM学科和非STEM学科。Catalyst项目的结果将定期与FGCU社区进行沟通，并涉及一个由关键高层管理人员组成的咨询委员会。该项目的成果将通过一个网站，演示文稿和同行评议的出版物与ADVANCE社区和其他人分享。NSF ADVANCE计划旨在通过重点识别和消除阻碍学术机构中不同教师充分参与和发展的组织障碍来促进性别平等。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“催化剂”奖项为学术性、非营利高等教育机构的机构评估和五年期教师公平战略计划的制定提供支持。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。
