number of full-time tenure-track faculty at the engineering colleges in Cohort 1 was 198 versus 107 in Cohort 2. Structurally, it may be more difficult to transform larger institutions. Also, Cohort 1 of the ADVANCE institutions did not have access to the same information sharing experiences as did Cohort 2, which, due to the two-year time lag, could draw on what worked or did not work for their predecessors. An important question to ponder in this context is how much the overall success of the ADVANCE program at both the university and college level, may depend on A) its timing, B) the structural characteristics of participating institutions and colleges, and C) the ability to draw on the collective experience of other
