Abstract: Women and people of color continue to be underrepresented among academic faculty in higher education, particularly in STEM fields. We use the Water Systems of Change theoretical framework and a qualitative document analysis to evaluate a case study of five institutions within a state university system that formed the NSF-funded AGEP PROMISE Academy Alliance (APAA) to address a shortage of faculty from minoritized backgrounds in the biomedical sciences. The APAA developed and implemented a novel intervention that focuses on minoritized postdoctoral scholar recruitment, development, and conversion into tenure-track faculty roles, while leveraging the state system as a collaborative body. We assess the program’s transformative influence on the university system and participating institutions, revealing changes at the structural, relational, and transformative levels.
