HBCU: Stenghtening Minority Access to Research and Training (SMART) in Science, Education, and Mathematics (SEM)

通过研究培训（SMART）加强少数民族的准入南方大学和A M学院HRD 0310426 PI：米尔德里德R。SmalleySouthern大学将实施综合方法，以加强该机构的本科科学，技术，工程和数学（STEM）教育和研究基础设施。该大学将（1）增加30%的STEM学士学位的数量;（2）显着增加这些学士学位谁追求STEM学科博士学位的数量;以及（3）增加这些STEM博士进入教授职位和STEM劳动力的数量。项目工作跨越建筑学、农业科学和农业科学等学科（动物、植物、土壤和城市林业）、生物、化学、计算机科学、物理、电气工程技术、工程（化学、土木、电气和机械）、数学以及化学、生物、物理和数学方面的科学教育。 SMART计划的设计是基于已经证明的论点，即本科生培训的范围，深度和质量以及学生参与本科研究对本科生参加研究生学习并取得成功的愿望和能力有很大的影响。

Title: Strengthening Minority Access Through Research Training (SMART)Southern University and A&M CollegeHRD 0310426PI: Mildred R. SmalleySouthern University will implement comprehensive approaches to strengthen the institution's undergraduate science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) education and research infrastructure. The University will (1) increase by 30% the number of STEM baccalaureates; (2) significantly increase the number of these baccalaureates who pursue doctoral degrees in STEM disciplines; and (3) increase the number of these STEM doctorates who enter the professoriate and the STEM workforce.Project efforts cut across the disciplines of architecture, agricultural sciences (animal, plant, soil, and urban forestry), biology, chemistry, computer science, physics, electrical engineering technology, engineering (chemical, civil, electrical, and mechanical), mathematics, and science education in chemistry, biology, physics, and mathematics. The design of the SMART program operates on the proven thesis that the scope, depth, and quality of undergraduate training and participation of students in undergraduate research have a strong bearing on the desire and ability of undergraduate students to attend and to succeed in graduate studies.
