Abstract

    The ADVANCE Program was established by the National Science 
Foundation in 2001 to address the underrepresentation and inadequate 
advancement of women on STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and 
Mathematics) faculties at postsecondary institutions. The evaluation 
being conducted by the Urban Institute focuses on the implementation of 
ADVANCE projects at institutions throughout the nation. The three major 
funding components--institutional transformation, leadership, and 
partnership awards--as well as all cohorts funded that completed their 
funding cycles will be included. The study will rely on a thorough 
review of project documents, telephone interviews with all grantees, 
and detailed case studies at selected sites. The goal of the evaluation 
will be to identify models of implementation and, depending on outcomes 
by model, conduct case studies at selected institutions to understand 
how ADVANCE models operate and may be effective in differing settings.
    Respondents: Faculty and staff at institutions of higher education 
awarded an ADVANCE grant from NSF.
    Estimated Number of Annual Respondents: 200 (total).
    Burden on the Public: 200 hours.

    Dated: May 13, 2009.
