  1. PI: Joan M. Herbers, College of Biological Sciences Program Director: Mary C. Juhas, College of Engineering Project CEOS Comprehensive Equity at Ohio State

  2. Outline Overview of NSF ADVANCE program The situation at Ohio State • Demographics • Faculty flux diagrams Project CEOS • The Transformational Leadership Model • Participating units and management structure

  3. NSF ADVANCE Program Institutional Transformation (IT) Grant Overall goal: Increase participation of women in the scientific and engineering workforce • through increased representation and advancement of women in academic science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) careers • through research-based interventions that affect the workplace environment Funding: $3.6 million, 5-year grant starting 9/2008 • there are currently 35 ADVANCE IT institutions; 5in the Big Ten, 3 in Ohio • 6 have already graduated

The National Academies published Beyond Bias and Barriersin 2007 to identify the issues and to outline remedies for universities and professional societies. The Hidden Brain Drain Project published the Athena Factor in 2008 concerning women’s careers in STEM industries with recommendations about retention. NSF sponsored Gender Equity Workshops for chairs of Chemistry, Physics, and Materials Science & Eng.

  13. Salient Points from Faculty Flux Diagrams We have more women now on our faculties than in 1998 while the number of men have remained constant. Of the 103 assistant professors in 1998, 69% of the men and 44% of the women were still on the faculty 7 years later; only 3 were denied tenure. Of the 1998 associate professors, 42% of the men and 60% of the women were still in rank 7 years later. Since 1998, women constituted 38% of the assistant professor hires, 16% of the associate professor hires and 11% of the professor hires. Of those hired since 1998, 95% of the men and 87% of the women are still on the faculty. During the past year, our Colleges lost 4 women.
