The Historically Black Colleges and Universities Undergraduate Program (HBCU-UP) through Targeted Infusion Projects supports the development, implementation, and study of evidence-based innovative models and approaches for improving the preparation and success of HBCU undergraduate students so that they may pursue science, technology, engineering or mathematics (STEM) graduate programs and/or careers. The project at Virginia State University seeks to expand, adapt and study a cross-disciplinary academic intervention aimed at incoming freshmen that have indicated an interest in STEM with the goal of improving retention and persistence in STEM majors. The activities and strategies are evidence-based and a strong plan for formative and summative evaluation is part of the project.Through the implementation of the interventions, the Phenomenological Variable of the Ecological Systems Theory (PVEST) developmental model will be tested for validity. A variety of personal factors that influence academic behavior will be studied in African American students in order to strengthen the factors that are most associated with successful academic performance. The project will support 1) formation of successful academic habits, 2) academic identity formation, 3) mitigation of self-handicapping through emotion regulation, and 4) expanding the brand of Virginia State University to include high academic achievement as a key part of the college experience. Both the intervention and the results of the study of the developmental model should be useful in developing models that support freshman integration into STEM majors at other institutions.

历史上的黑人学院和大学本科生计划（HBCU-UP）通过有针对性的输液项目支持开发，实施和基于证据的创新模式和方法的研究，以提高HBCU本科生的准备和成功，使他们可以追求科学，技术，工程或数学（STEM）研究生课程和/或职业。弗吉尼亚州立大学的项目旨在扩大，适应和研究跨学科的学术干预，旨在提高STEM专业的保留率和持久性，目标是对STEM感兴趣的新生。这些活动和战略是以证据为基础的，形成性和总结性评价的强有力计划是项目的一部分。通过实施干预措施，将测试生态系统理论现象学变量发展模型的有效性。 将在非裔美国学生中研究影响学业行为的各种个人因素，以加强与成功的学业表现最相关的因素。 该项目将支持1）成功的学术习惯的形成，2）学术身份的形成，3）通过情绪调节减轻自我妨碍，以及4）扩大弗吉尼亚州立大学的品牌，包括高学术成就作为大学经历的关键部分。 干预和发展模型的研究结果都应该有助于开发支持新生融入其他机构STEM专业的模型。
