Across the nation, there is a persistent gender inequity in grant success. When focusing on early career awards, the NSF CAREER award is consistently awarded to men more often than women. To address this inequity at Montana State, we implemented a program to support women faculty’s NSF CAREER award success. The program consists of a workshop with successful awardees, access to their proposals, review groups, and submission assistance. When comparing the success of women faculty in the seven years before the program to seven years since the program started, women’s success rate increased from 10% to 36%.
