“塔拉德加学院科学和数学改进方案”通过加强STEM教学和学习，解决非洲裔美国人参与科学、技术、工程和数学（STEM）学科和劳动力水平低的问题，这将是该机构STEM教学和研究基础设施可持续改进的结果。 基础设施的改进将解决（1）学生的招募、入学、保留和毕业;（2）课程改革和改进，注入技术以加强教学、本科生研究;以及（3）教师发展。课程改革工作包括修订和加强STEM守门人课程，开发生物学、化学和计算机科学方面的荣誉课程;建立环境科学计划。教师将提供专业发展机会，以提高他们的能力和货币内干学科，并有效地将技术和主动学习技术纳入学习过程。学生将有机会在研究科学家的指导下在校园和研究机构从事研究活动。

The "Talladega College Science and Mathematics Improvement Program" addresses the problem of low levels of African American participation in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) disciplines and workforce through enhanced STEM teaching and learning that will result from sustainable improvements of the institution's STEM instructional and research infrastructure. Infrastructure enhancements will address (1) student recruitment, enrollment, retention and graduation; (2) curriculum reform and improvement, infusion of technology to enhance instruction, undergraduate research; and, (3) faculty development.Curriculum reform efforts include revision and enhancement of STEM gate keeper courses, development of honors courses in biology, chemistry and computer science; and the establishment of an Environmental Science Program. Faculty will be provided professional development opportunities to enhance their competence and currency within STEM disciplines and to effectively incorporate technology and active learning techniques into the learning process. Students will be provided opportunities to engage in research activity on-campus and at research institutions under the tutelage of research scientists.
