The Academic Careers in Engineering & Science (ACES) program at Case Western Reserve University was part of the NSF-ADVANCE Institutional Transformation program to develop a national STEM workforce that includes the full participation of women at all levels of faculty and academic leadership and to improve the climate for women faculty through the initiatives that benefited the entire campus. Led by Deputy Provost Lynn Singer, ACES developed innovative strategies to promote a culture of equity, participation, openness and accountability at Case Western Reserve University.
The five-year $3.5 million grant created a model of institutional transformation, particularly in the areas of faculty recruitment, advancement, development, and retention policies, that improved accountability and effectiveness at the school/college and departmental level. Through the generosity of President Barbara Snyder and Provost Bud Baeslack, four of the innovative initiatives have been institutionalized at CWRU as ACES+: Executive Coaching, Hotline Coaching, Advance Opportunity Grants and the Summer Undergraduate Research Program for Minorities.
