Minority Undergraduate Marine Research Program

尽管采取了二十年的平权行动， 在实现比例代表制方面进展甚微 科学专业。 百分比表示通常是 不到百分之二。 在海洋，海洋，水生， 环境科学和渔业科学，它要少得多。 历史上少数民族学院和大学（HMCU）有 发挥了关键作用，提供合格的少数民族毕业生， 进入科学职业。 一项计划将于 萨凡纳州立学院和HMCU，以增加参与 海洋科学的本科少数民族， 学生支持，教学机会，研究曝光 以及到其他海洋研究所进行实验室/实地考察 和实验室。

Despite two decades of affirmative action, Blacks have made little progress in gaining proportional representation in science professions. The percent representation is typically less than two percent. And in the marine, ocean, aquatic, environmental and fisheries sciences, it is much less. Historically Minority Colleges and Universities (HMCUs) have played a key role in providing qualified minority graduates for entry into science careers. A program will be initiated at Savannah State College, and HMCU, to increase the participation of undergraduate minorities in marine sciences by offering student support, instructional opportunities, research exposure and laboratory/field trips to other marine research institutes and laboratories.
