UCAR-Significant Opportunities in Atmospheric Research and Science (SOARS)

大气研究和科学重大机遇(SOARS)计划的目标是创建一条管道，将学术上有才华的非裔美国人、美国印第安人、西班牙裔和拉丁裔美国人以及女性带入大气和相关科学领域，包括工程、数学和社会科学。目标是增加这些群体中参加大气及相关科学研究生课程的学生数量，这将导致他们在未来劳动力中作为科学家的代表性增加。

The objective of the Significant Opportunities in Atmospheric Research and Science (SOARS) program is to create a pipeline that brings academically talented African American, American Indian, Hispanic and Latino Americans, and women into careers in the atmospheric and related sciences, including engineering, mathematics, and social sciences. The goal is to increase the number of students from these groups enrolled in a graduate programs in the atmospheric and related sciences, which will lead to an increase in their representation as scientists in the future workforce.
