项目摘要

The Network of Cooperative Science Centers (CSCs) and High Schools for Training High School Students in Geosciences is a Track 2 program designed to create an effective pipeline for recruiting high school students and preparing them for transition through undergraduate and graduate programs to the workforce in geosciences. The program has two major components, Outreach to High Schools, and a 6-week's summer program. Through the outreach program, geoscience recruitment materials are disseminated to teachers and counselors. In addition, selected high schools are visited to make presentations to more than 500 juniors and seniors nationwide. Students are provided information about undergraduate and graduate degree programs in geosciences available at the more than 20 institutions that make up the four CSCs. They also receive information about the existing opportunities for financial support, mentoring and research in geosciences at the bachelors, masters and doctoral levels. The outreach program helps to increase students' access to learning about Earth System Science, and recruitment into geoscience degree programs or related sciences in the universities. Thirteen (13) high school seniors preparing to enter college are recruited into the 6-weeks summer geoscience bridge program each year. The program uses an Earth System Science approach, enhances the quantitative skills of the students, and exposes them to workforce needs and careers in geosciences. It also creates opportunities for students to work in a culturally diverse environment.

高中生地球科学培训合作科学中心(CSCS)和高中网络是一个Track 2计划，旨在为招收高中生并为他们通过本科和研究生课程过渡到地球科学劳动力做好准备。该计划包括两个主要部分，高中外展计划和为期6周的暑期计划。通过外展计划，将地学招聘材料分发给教师和辅导员。此外，还访问了选定的高中，向全国500多名大三和大四学生做演讲。向学生提供有关组成四个CSC的20多个机构提供的地球科学本科生和研究生学位课程的信息。他们还收到关于在学士、硕士和博士级别的地球科学方面现有的财政支持、指导和研究机会的信息。该推广计划有助于增加学生学习地球系统科学的机会，并招募他们进入大学的地球科学学位课程或相关科学。每年有十三(13)名准备进入大学的高三学生被招募参加为期6周的夏季地球科学桥项目。该计划使用地球系统科学的方法，提高学生的量化技能，并使他们接触到地球科学领域的劳动力需求和职业。它还为学生在不同文化的环境中工作创造了机会。
