Broadening Participation in STEM Faculty: A Program to support the Diversity Initiative for Tenure in Economics (DITE) 2022-2025

该奖项资助一系列研讨会，旨在指导来自不同群体的年轻经济学家。总体目标是通过向来自不同群体的初级学者提供他们正在进行的研究的反馈，并帮助他们制定职业规划，从而扩大对经济学研究的参与。DITE经济学终身职位多样性（DITE）计划将初级学者与具有丰富研究经验的高级教师相匹配。每年夏天，初级学者与导师会面，讨论他们的工作进展，并获得关于他们到目前为止的专业发展和来年计划的反馈。导师和学员还在学年的其他科学会议上会面，进一步讨论研究进展和研究计划。该项目成功地帮助了早期学员的职业发展。该奖项反映了美国国家科学基金会的法定使命，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。

This award funds a series of workshops that are designed to mentor young economists from diverse groups. The overall goal is to broaden participation in economics research by giving junior scholars from diverse groups feedback on their research in progress and help in developing career plans. The DITE Diversity for Tenure in Economics (DITE) program matches junior scholars with senior faculty with extensive experience in research. The junior scholars meet with their mentors each summer to discuss work in progress and receive feedback on their professional development to date and plans for the coming year. The mentors and mentees also meet at other scientific conferences during the academic year for additional discussions about research progress and research plans. The program has been successful in helping to advance the careers of earlier cohorts.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.
