Partnerships for Adaptation, Implementation, and Dissemination (PAID): Creating a Culture of Success for Women in Engineering and Science

路易斯安那理工学院的工程与科学学院（COES）提议实施一个先进的有偿项目，先进的教师，其使命是提高妇女在STEM学科的地位。具体而言，该项目将通过每周两次的教师午餐来解决气候问题;正式的教师指导计划;创新的工作生活政策和支持（发布时间和研究生援助）;以及针对管理员/教师的气候问题培训模块。为了促进保留/晋升，该项目将建立一个赠款写作计划，职业网络奖和一个杰出的讲师计划，以促进网络和来自全国各地的专家合作。为了加强专业发展，该项目将提供一个执行教练计划;职业发展讲习班;和年度颁奖宴会，以表彰业绩成就。此外，将创建具体的资源，以支持：管理人员和教师的培训;招聘和保留的最佳做法;关于机构政策的谈话要点指南;以及指导/教练/导师最佳做法的资源。在内部，我们将通过研讨会和OWISE办公室分享这些。智力优势。 该项目将使现有的ADVANCE计划适应创新的跨学科工程和科学团队环境，这将产生更大的影响和成功。该项目的主要目标是：1）提供一个框架和资源，教育所有教师，使妇女教师在干参与支持性的工作环境，减少孤立，提高保留，研究生产力和工作满意度，和2）应用社会认知职业理论（SCCT），这表明，自我效能感的信念强烈影响执行职业相关任务的能力，并受到（1）个人成功经验，（2）接触成功的榜样，（3）社交和语言说服沟通;（4）保持积极的工作环境。更广泛的影响。鉴于该机构在跨学科互动方面的强大历史和重点，该项目将作为可以传播到其他环境的创新计划的实验基线。此外，该项目不仅将通过培训、指导和联网举措直接影响STEM领域的女教师，而且还将通过培训模块和提高大学STEM领域女教师和领导者的成功率和人数，直接影响大学的所有教师和管理人员，以及与他们进行教学和互动的女本科生和研究生。此外，通过该方案制定的创新方案将通过国家会议（欧洲区域电研网、欧洲电研网、瑞典电研网和外商投资企业）和方案网站以及欧洲区域电研网数字知识中心广泛传播。

The College of Engineering and Science (COES) at Louisiana Tech proposes to implement an ADVANCE PAID project, ADVANCEing Faculty , which has as its mission advancing women in STEM disciplines. Specifically, this project will address climate issues with twice weekly Faculty Lunches; a formal faculty mentoring program; innovative worklife policies and support (release time and graduate student assistance); and training modules for administrators/faculty on climate issues. To promote retention/promotion, the project will establish a grant writing program, career networking awards and a distinguished lectureship program to facilitate networking and collaboration with experts from around the country. To enhance professional development this project will offer an executive coaching program; career development workshops; and an annual awards banquet to recognize performance accomplishments. Additionally, specific resources will be created to support: training for administrators and faculty; best practices for recruitment and retention; a talking-points guide on institutional policies; and a resource for guide/coach/mentor best practices. Internally, we will share these through workshops and the OWISE office. Intellectual Merit. This project will adapt existing ADVANCE programs to an innovative interdisciplinary engineering and science team-based environment which should yield greater impact and success. The primary objectives of this project are to: 1) provide a framework and resources to educate all faculty and enable women faculty in STEM to participate in a supportive work environment, reduce isolation, and enhance retention, research productivity and job satisfaction, and 2) apply social cognitive career theory (SCCT), which suggests that beliefs in self-efficacy strongly affect ability to perform career-related tasks and are shaped by (1) personal success experiences, (2) exposure to successful role models, (3) social and verbal persuasive communication, and (4) maintaining a positive work environment. Broader Impact. Given the strong history and focus of this institution on interdisciplinary interaction, this project will serve as an experimental baseline for innovative programs that can be disseminated to other settings. Also, this project will directly impact not only women faculty in STEM fields, through training, mentoring and networking initiatives, but also all faculty and administrators at the university, as well as the women undergraduate and graduate students with whom they teach an interact, by way of the training modules and increased success and numbers of women faculty and leaders in STEM at the university. Further, the innovative programs developed through this program will be widely disseminated via national conferences (WEPAN, ASEE, SWE and FIE) and a program website, as well as the WEPAN digital Knowledge Center.
