The project, Enhancing CCC–CSU–UC Collaboration (EC3), mobilizes knowledge across the State of California’s public higher education environment. It seeks to create systematic pathways for the exchange of knowledge, resources, and talent across California’s three higher education systems. The State’s public higher education environment is composed of the University of California (UC, 10), California State University (CSU, 23), and Community Colleges (CC, 115) campuses. By creating systematic pathways across UCs, CSUs, and CCs, the project expands collaborations, diversifies voices in research-agenda building, and engages non-research institutions (CSUs, CCs) as stakeholders in the new or enhanced vectors for collaboration. Increased collaboration can have an immense equity and diversity impact because under-represented populations are disproportionately large in the CCC and CSU systems. The goal of EC3 is to create systematic and open pathways to deploy inert knowledge, talent, and resources between and among the CCC – CSU – UC higher education segments. Nine community colleges, the Foundation for California CCs, five CSU campuses, and five UC campuses will forge pathways for collaboration that create more opportunities for faculty and students to thrive. The effort has three objectives: (a) identify best practices that enhance intersegmental collaboration; (b) identify best practices that can help to shape future NSF GRANTED funding opportunities; and (c) form a community of professionals ready to apply to those new opportunities. The work addresses domestic shortages in both STEM professionals and STEM higher education in the U.S. The majority of students, and among them a disproportionate amount of low-income and/or underrepresented, enter the postsecondary education system in California through its community colleges. Strengthening the pipeline from community colleges into CSUs and UCs will increase and diversify talent in the scientific enterprise. Every state in the country has two-year colleges, four-year colleges and universities, and flagship research universities, so the results of this project could serve as a model and will be of national interest.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.

该项目名为“加强CCC-CSU-UC协作”（EC3），旨在动员加州公立高等教育环境中的知识。它旨在为加州三个高等教育系统之间的知识、资源和人才交流创造系统的途径。加州的公立高等教育环境由加州大学（UC，排名第10）、加州州立大学（CSU，排名第23）和社区学院（CC，排名第115）组成。通过在UCs， csu和cc之间创建系统的途径，该项目扩大了合作，使研究议程建设中的声音多样化，并使非研究机构（csu, cc）成为新的或增强的合作载体的利益相关者。加强合作可以产生巨大的公平和多样性影响，因为在CCC和CSU系统中代表性不足的人口比例过高。EC3的目标是创建系统和开放的途径，在CCC - CSU - UC高等教育部门之间部署惰性知识，人才和资源。九所社区学院、加州cc基金会、五个科罗拉多州立大学校区和五个加州大学校区将开辟合作之路，为教师和学生创造更多的发展机会。这项工作有三个目标：(a)确定加强部门间协作的最佳做法；(b)确定有助于塑造未来国家科学基金授予资助机会的最佳做法；(c)形成一个专业人士社区，准备好应对这些新机遇。这项工作解决了美国国内STEM专业人员和STEM高等教育的短缺问题。大多数学生，其中不成比例的低收入和/或代表性不足的学生，通过社区学院进入加州的高等教育系统。加强从社区学院到csu和UCs的管道将增加和多样化科学事业的人才。美国每个州都有两年制大学、四年制大学和旗舰研究型大学，所以这个项目的结果可以作为一个模式，并将符合国家利益。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。
