The ISU ADVANCE Program is supported by the National Science Foundation through an ADVANCE Institutional Transformation Award. The ISU ADVANCE Program is funded for 5 years (2006-2011).

The goal of the ISU ADVANCE Program is to investigate the effectiveness of a multilevel collaborative effort to produce institutional transformation that results in the full participation of women faculty in science, technology, engineering and math fields in the university.
