Amplifying ADVANCE: Campus Transformations for Faculty Success

Abstract

To meet their missions and achieve their priorities, colleges and universities must facilitate faculty success. The National Science Foundation-funded ADVANCE Program put in place interventions and studied efforts to improve the climate for faculty success for women in STEM fields from 2001- 2025. ADVANCE offers an evidence-based framework for understanding the campus transformations that lead to broader, faculty success impacts. This research brief provides an overview of the results of a meta-synthesis of the outcomes of the ADVANCE Program, based on evaluation reports and publicly available articles and reports. The brief summarizes the seven main campus transformations ADVANCE projects initiated and the two broader impacts the ADVANCE program attained.
