This project brings together six partnering institutions to advance Data Science education in the Inland Empire, one of the most populous and diverse regions in California and the nation. The partnership includes the University of California Riverside, California State University San Bernardino, the three community colleges of the Riverside Community College District, and San Bernardino Valley College. All six partners are Hispanic Serving Institutions. The objective is develop and deploy ‘The Data Science Career Pathways in the Inland Empire’ (DS-PATH), a DSC program that aims to: (i) create flexible pathways for Data Science education in the Inland Empire region of Southern California, (ii) provide students with experiential learning opportunities, (iii) develop a community of partners that will provide local, tangible, and impactful Data Science projects, and (iv) broaden participation of females and under-represented minorities in Data Science. The team of diverse PIs and co-PIs puts forward a program centered around more flexible educational pathways, along with course alignments, articulations, and shared experiential learning opportunities. DS-PATH will create a pipeline that starts with outreach opportunities at the high-school level, continueswith undergraduate experiences and innovative bridge pathways from other majors, and culminates in professional Master’s degrees. Bridging these together is a Summer Fellowship program that will train 120 student participants at all levels. These pathways and the long-lasting relationships developed with local industry and community partners will continue to offer workforce development, educational advancement, and project-based learning opportunities not only for DS-PATH fellows but for all future aspiring Data Scientists in the region. Moreover, a workshop focused on Data Science pedagogy willoffer best and inclusive teaching strategies to Inland Empire teachers/faculty.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.

该项目汇集了六家合作机构，以促进内陆帝国的数据科学教育，内陆帝国是加利福尼亚州和美国人口最多、最多样化的地区之一。合作伙伴包括加州大学河滨分校、加州州立大学圣贝纳迪诺分校、河滨社区学院区的三所社区学院和圣贝纳迪诺山谷学院。所有六个合作伙伴都是西班牙裔服务机构。目标是开发和部署“内陆帝国的数据科学职业道路”(DS-PATH)，这是一项DSC计划，旨在：(I)为南加州内陆帝国地区的数据科学教育创造灵活的途径，(Ii)为学生提供体验式学习机会，(Iii)发展一个合作伙伴社区，提供本地的、有形的和有影响力的数据科学项目，以及(Iv)扩大女性和代表性不足的少数族裔对数据科学的参与。由不同的PI和合作PI组成的团队提出了一个以更灵活的教育途径为中心的计划，以及课程调整、衔接和共享的体验式学习机会。DS-PATH将创建一条管道，从高中层面的外展机会开始，继续提供本科经验和其他专业的创新桥梁途径，最终获得专业硕士学位。将这些联系在一起的是一个夏季奖学金计划，该计划将培训120名各级学生参与者。这些途径以及与当地行业和社区合作伙伴建立的长期关系将继续为DS-PATH研究员和该地区所有未来有抱负的数据科学家提供劳动力发展、教育进步和基于项目的学习机会。此外，一个以数据科学教育学为重点的研讨会将向内陆帝国的教师/教师提供最佳和包容性的教学策略。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力优势和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
