where the university could provide more support to the faculty. If a faculty member isfound to be performing very well, units are encouraged to positively recognize that performance.If a faculty member is found to be not performing satisfactorily, an action plan is to bedeveloped. Absent from the policy is discussion of employment termination. While such anoutcome might be able to be implied if an action plan is not successfully completed, it isnoteworthy in comparison to other policies that employment termination is not stated explicitly.The collective bargaining agreement between the California Faculty Association and theCalifornia State University system [5] outlines a comprehensive post-tenure review process thatwill occur every five years

For this reason, the National Science and TechnologyCouncil’s (NSTC) Committee on STEM Education (CoSTEM) released a five-year strategic planin 2018 describing nation-wide goals surrounding STEM education and the strategic pathwaysthrough which these goals could be achieved. It is this strategic plan that recognizes that eventhough increased financial support is helpful, collaboration, purposeful program development,and investment transparency are also key to achieving the goals set forth in the plan. Through ananalysis of the Federal STEM ecosystem, the work reported by interagency working groupswithin CoSTEM, and the Federal STEM Investments Inventory data, which

. Since the 18thCPC National Congress, innovation has been given greater strategic importance in anew era characterized by myriad global challenges, especially[4]. In essence, STEMeducation is a kind of innovation in the underlying institutional structure. Byrebuilding the concept and model of talent training, it can achieve the sustainableoutput of innovative talents in line with current social and economic developmentneeds. In this context, China has joined the "movement" of STEM education andestablished the legitimacy of STEM education in the minds of the Chinese public bylaunching various reform measures at the level of Regulation, norms and cognition. In2016, China's Ministry of Education issued the 13th Five-Year Plan for

Despite such efforts, an integralingredient to achieving R1 status – leadership – is under-researched in the field. Thus, our studyaims to acknowledge the vital role of transformational and distributed leadership within HBCUsand their broader stakeholder community in achieving their goal of reaching R1 status.The goal of this research study is to (1) conduct an analysis of data available within the CarnegieClassification®, (2) provide a thorough review of the literature surrounding this phenomenon,(3) explain the role of engineering-related expenditures
