The Quality Education for Minorities (QEM) Network's project is conducting three regional workshops focused on increasing the enrollment of male undergraduates in STEM disciplines at Minority-serving Institutions (MSIs). The three regional workshops will take place during March and April 2010. The goals of the project are to conduct a workshop series focused on effective strategies and best practices for increasing male student enrollment at MSIs, particularly in STEM; to identify potential reinforcing pipeline options; and to prepare and disseminate a Summary Report on the best practices and key workshop findings. Collectively, the three workshops will provide a broad spectrum of representation, experiences and perspectives from representatives of two and four-year Hispanic-serving Institutions (HSIs); Tribal Colleges and Universities/Alaska Native-Serving Institutions (TCUs/ANSIs); and Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs).TCUs/ANSIs, HSIs and HBCUs all share the quiet crisis of limited enrollment of males in STEM disciplines and all will benefit from the expanded knowledge base resulting from the workshops. Significant societal benefits, including an enhanced STEM workforce, will result from greater participation in STEM of all underrepresented groups, including minority males.

少数群体优质教育网络项目正在举办三个区域讲习班，重点是增加少数群体服务机构STEM学科男本科生的入学人数。这三个区域讲习班将于2010年3月和4月举行。该项目的目标是举办一系列讲习班，重点是提高男学生在理工科学校入学率的有效战略和最佳做法，特别是在科学、技术、工程和数学方面;确定潜在的加强管道选项;编写和传播关于最佳做法和主要讲习班结果的总结报告。总的来说，三个研讨会将提供来自两年制和四年制西班牙裔服务机构（HSI）代表的广泛代表性、经验和观点;部落学院和大学/阿拉斯加原住民服务机构（技合股/国家统计指数）;和历史上的黑人学院和大学（HBCU）。TCU/ANSI，HSIs和HBCU都分享了STEM学科男性入学人数有限的安静危机，所有人都将受益于研讨会带来的知识基础的扩大。包括少数族裔男性在内的所有代表性不足的群体更多地参与STEM，将产生重大的社会效益，包括增强STEM劳动力。
