项目摘要

"New 'Drilling Prospects' to Feed the Geoscience Workforce Pipeline" is a focused expansion of the Earth Science Outreach Program (ESOP) at the State University of New York College at Oneonta (SUNY Oneonta). ESOP provides college credit for advanced geoscience courses taught in high schools, in direct response to the absence of Advanced Placement (AP) opportunities in the geosciences. Preliminary data shows that this increased exposure to the geosciences in high school increases student interest in majoring in a geoscience and could potentially improve the flow in the geoscience workforce "pipeline". Professional development workshops assist teachers in developing ESOP proposals, and ongoing mentoring of ESOP teachers and dissemination of information (regarding the shortage of geoscience professionals, salary information, etc.) to school administrators and guidance counselors build constituency for ESOP and dual-credit geoscience programs at other institutions. Focused recruitment of schools in urban areas increases opportunities for groups that are historically underrepresented in the geosciences. "Drilling Prospects" will also evaluate the efficacy of dual credit programs in increasing numbers of geoscience majors and feeding the workforce pipeline. "Drilling Prospects", and the expansion of ESOP at SUNY Oneonta, can serve as a model for other colleges interested in launching similar programs.

“新的‘钻井前景’为地球科学人才输送管道提供支持”是纽约州立大学奥内奥塔学院（SUNY Oneonta）地球科学外展计划（ESOP）的重点扩展项目。ESOP为高中的高级地球科学课程提供大学学分，这是对地球科学课程缺乏AP机会的直接回应。初步数据表明，在高中阶段增加对地球科学的接触增加了学生对地球科学专业的兴趣，并有可能改善地球科学劳动力“管道”的流动。专业发展研讨会协助教师制定员工持股计划，并持续指导员工持股计划教师，向学校管理人员和指导顾问传播信息（关于地球科学专业人员短缺、薪资信息等），为其他机构的员工持股计划和双学分地球科学项目建立支持群体。城市地区学校的重点招聘增加了历史上在地球科学领域代表性不足的群体的机会。“钻井前景”还将评估双重信贷计划在增加地球科学专业学生数量和提供劳动力渠道方面的有效性。“钻井前景”以及在纽约州立大学奥内昂塔分校扩大员工持股计划，可以作为其他有兴趣推出类似项目的大学的榜样。
