This proposal has three goals. The first goal is to stimulate interest in STEM degrees and careers by offering a BS degree program in Environmental Science using culturally sensitive courses, laboratory experiments and other activities. The second goal is to continue and expand innovative programs of recruitment and retention of students in STEM degree programs. These include experimential learning programs for SBC students and local high school students and outreach programs for K-12 students on the SRSR. The third goal is to expand and improve research opportunities for students in STEM related degree programs. Students in the BS degree program in Environmental Science will be required to complete a research project. The development of the Research Laboratory will greatly enhance the learning and research opportunities for students to complete research projects. SBC will apply for a loan to begin commercial analysis of environmental samples on SRSR. Ultimately, SBC hopes this laboratory can become an independent commercial laboratory for environmental analyses.

这项提议有三个目标。第一个目标是通过提供环境科学学士学位课程，使用文化敏感课程、实验室实验和其他活动来激发人们对STEM学位和职业的兴趣。第二个目标是继续和扩大STEM学位课程招收和留住学生的创新计划。其中包括为SBC学生和当地高中生提供的试验性学习计划，以及为SRSR上的K-12学生提供的外展计划。第三个目标是扩大和改善STEM相关学位课程学生的研究机会。环境科学学士学位课程的学生将被要求完成一项研究项目。研究实验室的发展将大大增强学生完成研究项目的学习和研究机会。SBC将申请一笔贷款，开始对SRSR上的环境样本进行商业分析。最终，SBC希望这个实验室能够成为一个独立的商业环境分析实验室。
