She will establish programmatic direction and make key decisions in consultation with Vice Provost of Academic Affairs Maureen Stanton (Co-PI) (Chair of the UC Davis ADVANCE Steering Committee). Faculty Director Karen McDonald and Associate Director Kimberlee Shauman (Co-PI). Faculty Director McDonald will provide daily project leadership and management. In collaboration with Chancellor Katehi and VP Stanton, and Associate Director Shauman, McDonald will be the main point of contact with the External Advisory Board, the Internal Advisory Committee, all initiative committees, Internal and External Evaluators and the NSF ADVANCE Program Officers. VP Stanton, Faculty Director McDonald, and Associate Director Shauman will meet with PI Katehi regularly (at least monthly), and will communicate with her between meetings via email.

The STEM colleges include: the College of Agriculture and Environmental Sciences (CAES), the College of Biological Sciences (CBS), the College of Engineering (COE), and the Division of Math and Physical Sciences (MPS) which is within the College of Letters and Sciences. The Steering Committee will meet twice each quarter to set action priorities for each of the initiatives, review progress, review formative evaluation reports and other indicators of program effectiveness, coordinate and modify planned activities for maximum impact. Management Team – This team manages the daily activities of the project. This team is lead by Faculty Director McDonald and the ADVANCE Program Coordinator. The team includes a Program Assistant, a Budget Analyst, Purchasing & Accounts Payable Specialist, and a Financial Analyst. This team will be responsible for day-to-day operations, human resources management, communications, and coordinating relationships with other academic institutions and ADVANCE programs. The Faculty Director and Program Coordinator will report weekly to VP Stanton. The Faculty Director and Program Coordinator will be ex-officio members of each of the initiative committees. Internal Advisory Board (IAB) – The IAB includes a cross-section of UC Davis academic and administrative leaders.

The EAB will meet quarterly via conference calls and will visit UC Davis once annually to assess progress towards our programmatic goals, recommend appropriate programmatic adjustments and directions, assess research program progress, and identify potential venues for external/national collaboration. The annual visit will most often coincide with the UC Davis ADVANCE Annual Retreat, when the EAB members will view presentations by ADVANCE leaders and consults with the internal and external evaluators. Initiative Leadership Committees – Five committees will formulate and direct the activities and advance the goals described for the five UC Davis ADVANCE initiatives. Each committee has 2-3 co-chairs and 2-6 additional faculty participants.
