The GeoPrep Program at Stony Brook University represents a collaboration between a number of University partners and the Office of Educational Programs at Brookhaven National Laboratory. University partners include: the Department of Geosciences in the College of Arts and Sciences, the Department of Technology and Society in the College of Engineering and Applied Sciences, the Center for Environmental and Molecular Science, the Institute for Terrestrial and Planetary Atmospheres, the Marine Science Research Center, the Long Island Group Advancing Science Education, the Science and Technology Entry Programs, the Louis Stokes Alliance for Minority Participation, and the Alliance for Graduate Education and the Professoriate. The goal of the project is to increase the participation in the geosciences by underrepresented minority (URM) students by introducing Earth science teachers and students from high need high school districts on Long Island to the broad array of disciplines contained within the geosciences. The aim of the project is to foster a further interest in pursuing geoscience as an undergraduate major in college and thereby increase participation in the geosciences by underrepresented minority students. Students will be exposed to an array of inquiry-based geoscience activities through high level academic year research experiences, summer research experiences, and enhanced teacher training programs that utilize facilities and resources available to the project partners. Project activities will tie in to existing state-wide networks of minority student programs that are supported by both NSF and the New York State Department of Education. Over the two years of GeoPrep, over 800 high school students and 45 teachers will be served.

斯托尼布鲁克大学的GeoPrep计划代表了许多大学合作伙伴与布鲁克海文国家实验室教育计划办公室之间的合作。大学合作伙伴包括：在艺术与科学学院的地球科学系，工程与应用科学学院的技术与社会系，环境与分子科学中心，地球和行星大气研究所，海洋科学研究中心，长岛集团推进科学教育，科学和技术入门计划，路易斯·斯托克斯少数民族参与联盟，以及研究生教育和教授联盟。 该项目的目标是通过向长岛高需求高中地区的地球科学教师和学生介绍地球科学中包含的广泛学科，增加代表性不足的少数民族学生对地球科学的参与。该项目的目的是进一步培养学生在大学本科主修地球科学的兴趣，从而增加代表性不足的少数民族学生对地球科学的参与。 学生将通过高水平的学年研究经验，夏季研究经验和利用项目合作伙伴可用的设施和资源的增强型教师培训计划，接触到一系列基于探究的地球科学活动。 项目活动将与现有的全州范围内的少数民族学生计划网络相结合，这些计划得到了NSF和纽约州教育部的支持。 在GeoPrep的两年时间里，将为800多名高中学生和45名教师提供服务。
