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.

该项目汇集了六个合作机构，以推进内陆帝国的数据科学教育，内陆帝国是加州和全国人口最多，最多样化的地区之一。合作伙伴包括加州河滨大学、加州州立大学圣贝纳迪诺分校、滨江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途径”（DS-PATH），这是一个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）发展合作伙伴社区，提供本地，有形和有影响力的数据科学项目，以及（iv）扩大女性和少数族裔在数据科学领域的参与。由不同的PI和共同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，沿着课程调整，衔接和共享体验式学习机会。DS-PATH将创建一个管道，从高中水平的推广机会开始，继续从其他专业的本科经验和创新桥梁途径，并在专业硕士学位达到高潮。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。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研究员以及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，一个专注于数据科学教学法的研讨会将为内陆帝国的教师/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，并被认为值得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来支持。
