The SSC/HBOI Undergraduate Summer Program: A Bridge to Research for Minority Students in the Marine Sciences

这是萨凡纳州立学院和海港分支海洋学研究所之间的一项合作提案，旨在为少数民族本科生提供一个夏季项目，这是一个从支持性HMCU教学环境到海洋实验室环境的过渡学术体验。学生们将在萨凡纳州立大学度过五个星期，在那里学生们将参加与研究相关的培训课程。最后四周将在Harbor Branch度过，在那里学生将被介绍到最新的技术，并从事一个研究项目。这个项目被认为是一个“通往研究”的桥梁，让对海洋科学感兴趣的少数民族学生在他们大学生涯的早期就参与其中，并引导这些学生进入其他NSF支持的本科研究项目。

OCE-9402527 COOK This is a collaborative proposal between Savannah State College and Harbor Branch Oceanographic Institution to provide minority undergraduates with a summer program that is a transitional academic experience from a supportive HMCU instructional setting to a marine laboratory environment. The students will spend five weeks at Savannah State where the students will participate in research- related training sessions. The final four weeks will be spent at Harbor Branch where the students will be introduced to up-to-date- technology and work on a research project. This project is seen to be a "bridge to research" program to interest and involve minority students in marine science at an early state of their college career and guide these students into other NSF supported undergraduate research programs.
