The mission of the Earth Institute ADVANCE program is to increase the recruitment, retention, and advancement of women scientists and engineers at Columbia University. Columbia ADVANCE programs target both faculty, whose primary affiliations are with the academic departments, and research scientists, whose primary affiliations are with research units within Columbia’s Earth Institute.
Highlights from this report are: "The School of Engineering Makes Significant Gains in the Number of Women Hired, New Initiative on the Science of Diversity, and ADVANCE Marie Tharp Visiting Fellow Wins MacArthur “Genius” Award.
Year Three Annual Reports
David Harris, Interim Provost and principal investigator provided institutional leadership and commitment, as well as a top level of accountability (September–December 2008). Harris was also responsible for ADVANCE project oversight and disseminating information to the wider university community about the CU-ADVANCE Center’s opportunities and findings.
The data reported here are for the academic year 2002-2003 (September 2002-August, 2003, referred to in this report as AY2003); the second year of ADVANCE funding (in January 2003) occurred midway through the academic year of interest. Note that the ADVANCE project activities we are reporting on have taken place between January-June, 2004. For this report, then, outcome measures are reported for a year behind the activities that are discussed in the preceding section. We plan to make up for this time lag by
