The Florida State University (FSU) ADVANCE Adaptation project INCREASE aims to improve the workplace culture and climate for all STEM faculty at FSU. This work will build on current efforts to increase the recruitment, empowerment, advancement, and systemic equity of underrepresented faculty in STEM fields. This project adapts national and institutional best practices for contextually relevant and sustainable change. The project focuses on adaptations for systemic change at the STEM department and college level. The key initiatives include implementing equity-focused policy initiatives; empowering faculty with mentored cohort networks internal and external to FSU; and enhancing understanding of department-specific issues and opportunities. FSU ADVANCE will generate knowledge on patterns in STEM faculty experiences. Best practices learned will be shared with other institutions as well as STEM partners represented on our advisory board, regional and national networks, and federal laboratories. The FSU project will strategically integrate coordination with the AAAS SEA Change initiative which is a national effort to recognize excellence in efforts to support diversity, equity and inclusion by institutions of higher education. This project attends to the experiences and challenges of women of color STEM faculty that are underrepresented in STEM academic careers. FSU ADVANCE will assess the impact of the adaptations over time, for departments, cohorts, and individual faculty. Reports, publications, policy dissemination, and project activities will be shared on the FSU ADVANCE website. 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 institutions 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.

佛罗里达州立大学(FSU)高级适应项目旨在改善FSU所有STEM教师的工作场所文化和环境。这项工作将建立在当前努力的基础上，以增加STEM领域中代表性不足的教师的招聘、赋权、晋升和系统公平。该项目采用国家和机构的最佳做法，以适应与具体情况相关和可持续的变化。该项目的重点是适应STEM系和学院一级的系统性变革。主要举措包括实施以公平为重点的政策倡议；通过FSU内部和外部的指导队列网络增强教员的能力；以及加强对部门具体问题和机会的了解。FSU Advance将在STEM教师经验中产生关于模式的知识。学习到的最佳做法将与其他机构以及STEM合作伙伴分享，这些合作伙伴代表我们的顾问委员会、区域和国家网络以及联邦实验室。FSU项目将在战略上将协调与AAAS海洋变化倡议相结合，该倡议是一项国家努力，旨在表彰在支持高等教育机构多样性、公平和包容性的努力中的卓越表现。该项目关注有色人种STEM教师的经历和挑战，她们在STEM学术生涯中的代表性不足。FSU Advance将随着时间的推移评估调整对院系、队列和个别教职员工的影响。报告、出版物、政策传播和项目活动将在FSU Advance网站上共享。NSF高级方案旨在通过重点确定和消除阻碍学术机构中不同教员充分参与和进步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、实践以及组织文化和氛围中。先期“适应”奖为学术、非营利性高等教育机构以及非学术、非营利性组织提供调整和采用循证策略的支持。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
