Planning Grant: Exploring an Undergraduate Academic Pathway to Mathematics and Computer Science

Voorhees学院将对Voorhees STEM教育项目进行全面分析，作为制定HBCU-UP五年实施项目提案的规划过程的一部分。Voorhees学院是一所私立的，历史悠久的黑人，男女同校，文科，学士学位授予机构，隶属于圣公会。HBCU-UP计划补助金将确定和探索教学和学习策略，以改善STEM课程的教学和学习。他们将集中精力探索从公立学校到研究生院的教育管道上的关键过渡点。规划人员还将考虑系统地增加Voorhees学生在STEM学科研究生院就读人数的策略。规划过程包括强有力的规划策略，如带着实施项目对HBCUs进行实地考察，以及对当前课程和机构数据进行广泛分析。

Voorhees College will implement a comprehensive analysis of the Voorhees STEM educational programs as part of a planning process to develop a five-year Implementation Project proposal to HBCU-UP. Voorhees College is a private, historically black, coeducational, liberal arts, baccalaureate degree-granting institution, affiliated with the Episcopal Church. The HBCU-UP planning grant will identify and explore teaching and learning strategies to improve teaching and learning in the STEM curriculum. They will concentrate on exploring the critical transition points along the educational pipeline from public school to graduate school. The planners will also consider strategies to systematically increase the number of Voorhees students attending graduate school in the STEM disciplines. The planning process includes strong planning strategies such as site visits to HBCUs with Implementation Projects, and the extensive analysis of current curriculum and institutional data.
