South Texas Undergraduate Curriculum Consortium for Educating Biotechnical Science Students (SUCCESS)

德尔马尔学院（DMC）和德克萨斯州农工大学科珀斯克里斯蒂分校（TAMU-CC），两个西班牙裔服务机构，正在与当地的劳动力委员会，国家实验室，大学和行业合作，为南德克萨斯州创建一个新的生物技术计划。该项目的目标是：（1）在DMC开发一个新的生物技术课程，教授农业和医疗生物技术的当前研究和实验室程序，（2）为生命科学行业的当地就业建立一个定制的代表性不足的技术人员队伍，（3）通过探究式学习提高学生的科学素养，（4）将教育技术纳入新的和现有的证书和副学士学位课程，（5）为高中和大学教育工作者提供专业发展。项目交付成果包括一个新的生物技术计划，一个课程网站，新的和修订的生物技术相关课程，教师协会，学生研究实习，项目相关报告和衔接协议。

Del Mar College (DMC) and Texas A&M University at Corpus Christi (TAMU-CC), two Hispanic-serving institutions, are collaborating with a local workforce board, a national laboratory, a university, and industry to create a new biotechnology program for South Texas. The goals of the project are to (1) develop a new biotechnology program at DMC that teaches current research and laboratory procedures in agricultural and medical biotechnology, (2) build a customized workforce of underrepresented technicians for local employment in the life science industry, (3) improve students' scientific literacy through inquiry-based learning, (4) incorporate instructional technology into new and existing certificate and associates degree courses, and (5) provide professional development for high school and college educators. Project deliverables include a new biotechnology program, a course website, new and revised biotechnology-related courses, teacher institutes, student research internships, project-related reports, and articulation agreements.
