德克萨斯大学埃尔帕索分校（UTEP）在美国国家科学基金会的支持下，为本科科学和工程教育开发了一个全面的支持系统。这种模式整合了四个项目，旨在提高参加城市通勤校园的理工科学生的保留率和成功率。为了确保成功过渡到大学，UTEP已经为我们的科学和工程专业实施了入学学生计划。为了加强校园内学生学习者的社区，UTEP创建了一个最先进的学生支持学术中心和一个为教授，助教和本科生同行领导人提供有效教学和学习的中心。最后，UTEP为希望在教师导师的指导下参与学术研究经验的学生制定了本科研究计划。自实施这些方案以来，科学和工程专业的一年级和二年级学生保留率比基线数据显著增加。毕业率预计将在11年内翻一番。本文介绍了该方案的结构、目标、影响和评价。
The University of Texas at El Paso (UTEP) has developed a comprehensive support system for undergraduate science and engineering education with support from the National Science Foundation. This model integrates four programs designed to increase the retention and success of science and engineering students attending an urban commuter campus. In order to ensure a successful transition into college, UTEP has implemented an entering student program for our science and engineering majors. To strengthen the community of student learners on campus, UTEP has created both a state-of-the-art academic center for student support and a center for effective teaching and learning for professors, teaching assistants, and undergraduate peer leaders. Finally, UTEP has developed an undergraduate research program for students who wish to participate in an academic research experience under the guidance of a faculty mentor. Since the implementation of these programs, first and second-year student retention in science and engineering has increased significantly over baseline data. The graduation rate is expected to double over an eleven-year period. This paper describes the structure, goals, impact, and evaluation of the program.
