HRD-9453905 Dr. Collier, Harvest Melba Ware/Co-PI University of MO-Rolla Rolla, MO 64501 "St. Louis Comprehensive Regional Center for Minorities" The St. Louis Comprehensive Regional Center for Minorities is a consortium organized through the cooperation of the University of Missouri-St. Louis, the University of Missouri-Rolla, the St. Louis Community College, Harris-Stowe State College, and the St. Louis Public School System. The center's mission is to develop and conduct coordinated school-based and external strategies that result in the academic preparation of urban minority students to enter undergraduate studies in the sciences, mathematics and engineering. During the last 4 years, the implementation of CRCM activities at the middle and high school levels has provided opportunities for involving students in formal and informal science and mathematics enrichment, inquiry based learning experiences, career orientation, and scientific research activities. The high school research program has resulted in dramatic increases in student interest and participation in competitive science and mathematics programs. This includes historic participation of St. Louis minority students in local, regional, state and national science competitions. In 1992, 120 students exited the St. Louis CRCM pipeline, as high school graduates. A recent survey of that group indicates that 85 students are in some level of post-secondary education; 62 students are currently majoring in mathematics, a science or engineering related area 55 students are pursuing B.S. degrees in the hard sciences, mathematics or engineering. These results and the growing participation of the community strongly suggest that such efforts are needed and can be an effective means to increase the pool of qualified minority students for SME careers.

Collier博士，Harvest Melba Ware/密苏里州罗拉大学联合PI罗拉，密苏里州64501 圣路易斯少数民族综合区域中心（St. Louis Comprehensive Regional Center for Minorities） 圣路易斯少数群体综合区域中心是一个联合体，由密苏里-圣路易斯大学、密苏里-罗拉大学、圣路易斯社区学院、哈里斯-斯托州立学院和圣路易斯公立学校系统合作组建。 该中心的使命是制定和实施协调一致的学校和外部战略，为城市少数民族学生进入科学、数学和工程本科学习做好学术准备。 在过去4年中，在初中和高中实施CRCM活动为学生参与正式和非正式的科学和数学充实、基于探究的学习经验、职业定向和科学研究活动提供了机会。 高中研究计划导致学生对竞争性科学和数学课程的兴趣和参与度大幅增加。 这包括圣路易斯少数民族学生在地方，地区，州和国家科学竞赛的历史性参与。 1992年，120名学生作为高中毕业生离开了圣路易斯CRCM管道。 最近对这一群体的调查表明，85名学生正在接受某种程度的中学后教育; 62名学生目前主修数学、科学或工程相关领域，55名学生正在攻读学士学位。自然科学、数学或工程学学位。 这些结果和社区越来越多的参与有力地表明，这种努力是必要的，可以成为增加中小企业职业合格少数民族学生人数的有效手段。
