With support from the National Science Foundation, and building upon the success of the Mississippi e-Center, the Science Diversity Center (SDC) will establish the Science and Technology Center (STC) Student Transitional Alliance for Research in STEM (STARS) partnership, designed to provide faculty and students from minority-serving institutions with increased access to undergraduate and graduate research opportunities at six NSF-sponsored STCs. Program goals encompass: increase the number research opportunities for students underrepresented in STEM at MSIs supported by the NSF's Human and Resources Development Program, including the Centers for Research Excellence in Science and Technology; provide an expanded forum for STCs to share STEM education and knowledge transfer initiatives, and develop research collaborations with MSI faculty. Besides providing a rich atmosphere for encouraging future scientists and engineers, STCs conduct innovative, world-class research of national importance, that promise to contribute to the Nation's by developing STEM potential through discovery and education. The STC /STARS partnership will offer a significant number of under-represented students and faculty in STEM the opportunity to participate in STC-based research. Consequently broadening the participation of all citizens and enhancing diversity within NSF's programs will help address the national challenge of preparing a more diverse and globally competitive STEM workforce for the future.

在国家科学基金会的支持下，并在密西西比电子中心的成功基础上，科学多样性中心（SDC）将建立科学技术中心（STC）学生过渡联盟研究干（STARS）合作伙伴关系，旨在为教师和学生提供少数民族服务机构增加获得本科和研究生研究机会在六个NSF赞助的STC。 方案目标包括：在NSF的人力和资源开发计划支持下，增加MSIs中STEM学生人数不足的研究机会，包括科学和技术卓越研究中心;为STC提供扩大的论坛，以分享STEM教育和知识转移计划，并与MSI教师开展研究合作。 除了为鼓励未来的科学家和工程师提供丰富的氛围外，STC还开展具有国家重要性的创新性世界级研究，通过发现和教育开发STEM潜力，为国家做出贡献。STC /STARS合作伙伴关系将为STEM中大量代表性不足的学生和教师提供参与STC研究的机会。因此，扩大所有公民的参与，提高NSF项目的多样性，将有助于应对国家面临的挑战，为未来培养更加多样化和具有全球竞争力的STEM劳动力。
