During the last five years, Savannah State University embarked on its most comprehensive program to date to strengthen science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) education at the University through the implementation of the Minority Access for Graduate Education and Careers (MAGEC-STEM) program. The program focused on increased enrollment and enhanced teaching and student support services. The new MAGEC-STEM Plus Program will further strengthen the culture of STEM excellence at the University by expanding and deepening our outreach, teaching, and mentoring activities through the following three objectives: 1) Curricular Development, Revision and Enhancement Reform, 2) Expanding Pathways for Undergraduate Recruitment, Enrichment, Retention and Research Experience, and 3) Strengthening the Faculty Development Activities. The program results will be disseminated widely to the community through SSU and program websites and presentations at regional and national/scientific meetings and publications in scientific journals. This program will advance the mission of the University through its provision of high quality degree programs in STEM disciplines that increase the participation of African Americans in higher education.

在过去的五年里，萨凡纳州立大学启动了迄今为止最全面的计划，通过实施少数族裔研究生教育和职业准入（MAGEC-STEM）计划来加强大学的科学、技术、工程和数学（STEM）教育。该计划的重点是增加入学人数，加强教学和学生支持服务。新的MAGEC-STEM Plus计划将通过以下三个目标扩大和深化我们的外展，教学和指导活动，进一步加强大学的STEM卓越文化：1）课程开发，修订和改进改革，2）扩大本科生招聘，充实，保留和研究经验的途径，以及3）加强教师发展活动。 计划结果将通过SSU和计划网站以及在区域和国家/科学会议上的演讲和科学期刊上的出版物向社区广泛传播。该计划将通过在STEM学科提供高质量的学位课程，提高非洲裔美国人在高等教育中的参与，推进大学的使命。
