This project is creating a regional partnership of educational institutions, industry, and government agencies that form a pipeline from community college to university to Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) industry. The target population is economically and/or educationally disadvantaged students in STEM fields. The goals of the this project are to increase retention of students in STEM disciplines and to increase the number of students who: a) pursue STEM academic and career pathways b) graduate with B.S. degrees in STEM fields and c) participate in STEM industry internships/research.The institutions included in this collaboration are San Diego State University, San Diego City College, and Southwestern College. The project is incorporating the Math, Engineering, Science, Achievement (MESA) Program model at each partner campus. It is enhancing efforts to provide essential services that help students excel academically, develop leadership skills, and gain exposure to industry. Team internships are being facilitated through this project to provide students with opportunities to increase their knowledge and to develop skills for academic and workplace success, and ultimately to become part of the economic development of the region. A "Guide to an Effective STEP" is being developed to disseminate the outcomes and effectiveness of the SPSD program to contribute to the national effort to increase student participation in STEM fields.

该项目正在建立教育机构、行业和政府机构的区域合作伙伴关系，形成从社区学院到大学再到科学、技术、工程和数学（STEM）行业的管道。目标人群是在STEM领域经济和/或教育上处于劣势的学生。该项目的目标是提高STEM学科学生的保留率，并增加以下学生的数量：a)追求STEM学术和职业道路；b)在STEM领域获得学士学位；c)参加STEM行业实习/研究。参与此次合作的机构包括圣地亚哥州立大学、圣地亚哥城市学院和西南学院。该项目将数学、工程、科学、成就（MESA）项目模式纳入每个合作校园。它正在加强努力，提供必要的服务，帮助学生在学术上脱颖而出，培养领导技能，并获得接触行业。该项目促进了团队实习，为学生提供了增加知识和培养学术和职场成功技能的机会，并最终成为该地区经济发展的一部分。正在制定一份“有效步骤指南”，以传播SPSD计划的成果和有效性，以促进国家努力提高学生对STEM领域的参与。
