项目摘要

Louisiana Delta Community College in collaboration with Louisiana Technology University propose an engineering technology career pathway for high school and post-secondary students. This project aims to prepare students for instrumentation technician careers in manufacturing and other highly automated industries. Through recruitment and retention programs set in a diverse geographic region, this project has the potential to promote increased participation in the STEM workforce by veterans, women, and students from groups that have been traditionally underrepresented in STEM fields. This project aims to positively affect local industry and residents by strengthening the pipeline into high-technology, high-wage jobs. As a result, this project has the potential to improve the quality of life for these residents and to serve as a model for high-tech workforce development in other rural areas across the nation.The primary goal of this project will be to increase engineering technology career pathways for high school students, engage and retain these students through college, and ensure they will be employable upon graduation. The two pathways to become an automation technician will be either through a two-year technology degree or a four-year engineering technology degree. High school students will be offered dual credit courses to seamlessly transfer into the two-year or four-year career paths in automation technology. High school teachers and counselors from across North Louisiana will participate in workshops where they will be introduced to advanced manufacturing curriculum and career pathways. A strong collaboration between higher education and industry will help to align the curriculum to workforce needs. This project expects that it will reach about 500 high school students, about 100 undergraduate students, and more than 25 high school teachers and counselors over a three-year period.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

路易斯安那三角洲社区学院与路易斯安那技术大学合作，为高中和大专学生提供工程技术职业道路。该项目旨在培养学生在制造业和其他高度自动化行业从事仪器技术工作。通过在不同地理区域设置的招聘和保留计划，该项目有可能促进退伍军人、女性和学生更多地参与STEM劳动力，这些群体传统上在STEM领域的代表性不足。该项目旨在通过加强进入高技术、高工资工作岗位的渠道，对当地产业和居民产生积极影响。因此，该项目有可能改善这些居民的生活质量，并成为全国其他农村地区高科技劳动力发展的典范。该项目的主要目标是增加高中学生的工程技术职业道路，吸引和留住这些学生进入大学，并确保他们在毕业时能够就业。成为自动化技术人员的两种途径是通过两年制的技术学位或四年的工程技术学位。高中学生将获得双学分课程，以无缝地转入两年或四年的自动化技术职业道路。来自北路易斯安那州的高中教师和辅导员将参加研讨会，在那里他们将被介绍到先进的制造业课程和职业道路。高等教育和工业之间的紧密合作将有助于使课程符合劳动力需求。该项目预计将在三年的时间里惠及约500名高中生，约100名本科生，以及超过25名高中教师和辅导员。该奖项反映了美国国家科学基金会的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
