Welcome to ADVANCE

Welcome

Welcome to Cal Poly Pomona’s ADVANCE Institutional Transformation Award website. Our goal is to create a university-wide system of recruitment, retention and development that will enable diverse faculty in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) disciplines, including women, to advance to leadership positions.

You can find out more about ADVANCE at Cal Poly Pomona in our brochure, which provides detailed information about each of the program objectives.  Please join our effort in strengthening our ability to recruit talented and diverse faculty to CPP.

ADVANCE Topical

Written by the ADVANCE Scholars or Co-PI's, ADVANCE Topicals report findings to the campus on assessment, recruitment, career development and leadership development in the STEM disciplines. ADVANCE Topicals are distributed quarterly.

The Fall 2007 ADVANCE Topical explores the results of the Appreciative Inquiry (AI) (Cooperrider & Whitney, 2005) STEM faculty focus groups from Spring 2007.

By Jill E. Nemiro, Ph.D., Psychology & Sociology Department, ADVANCE Grant Co-PI.
