The University of Central Oklahoma, in collaboration with eight other universities and community and technical colleges, is continuing to enhance a statewide network of institutions to increase recruitment, retention and graduation of students in STEM disciplines. The Oklahoma project, STEM Double Bridge: Connecting High Schools, Community Colleges, and Universities for Tomorrow's Leaders in Science, Technology Engineering and Mathematics, has used their experience with a previously funded STEP award to develop activities and initiatives that target incoming high school students and community college transfers. The project's Summer Bridge program will provide a four-week, residential lecture and research experience to incoming freshmen who have expressed an interest in a STEM discipline. New to the Oklahoma program, this program element will incorporate five area high school teachers who will serve as advisors to the program and who will work with the students on their research projects. A second bridge, called the Fall Bridge, will target community and technical college students who are entering four-year programs. This one-week residential program will provide the students with a campus orientation and academic advisement, provide assistance in developing writing and mathematics skills, introduce the students to the library system, and provide sessions on research methods and guidance in reading scientific articles.

中央俄克拉荷马州大学与其他八所大学和社区及技术学院合作，继续加强全州范围的机构网络，以增加STEM学科学生的招聘，保留和毕业。 俄克拉荷马州的项目，STEM双桥：连接高中，社区学院和大学，为未来的科学，技术工程和数学的领导者，利用他们的经验与以前资助的STEP奖，以制定针对即将到来的高中学生和社区学院转学的活动和倡议。 该项目的夏桥计划将提供为期四周的住宅讲座和研究经验，以新生谁表示有兴趣在STEM学科。 新的俄克拉荷马州计划，这个计划的内容将包括五个地区的高中教师谁将担任顾问的计划，谁将与学生对他们的研究项目。 第二座桥，称为秋季桥，将针对社区和技术学院的学生谁是进入四年制课程。 这个为期一周的住宿计划将为学生提供校园定位和学术交流，为发展写作和数学技能提供帮助，向学生介绍图书馆系统，并提供研究方法和阅读科学文章的指导。
