HBCU: TALENT-21: Gateway for Advancing Science and Mathematics Talent

北卡罗来纳州A&&T州立大学这个项目名为ARTENT-21：提升科学和数学人才的门户，是一个框架，旨在增加科学、数学、工程和技术领域的学生数量，增强SMET毕业生的职业竞争力，并鼓励更多的毕业生攻读科学或工程博士学位。这些目标是通过(1)微积分、化学和物理的课程改革；(2)扩大跨学科课程；(3)在学生学习的成功模式和在教学中有效使用技术的教师发展；(4)系统的本科生研究培训；(5)大学、工业、国家实验室的本科生研究经验；(6)奖学金；(7)暑期学院，帮助学生从高中过渡到大学，并为一年级和二年级课程的成功奠定学术基础；以及(8)竞争性招聘。杰出的人才素质-21包括物理、化学和数学教师之间的统一方法，以提高SMET“看门人”课程的学习，以及通过有组织的培训经验让学生及早参与研究。

North Carolina A&T State UniversityThis project, TALENT-21: Gateway for Advancing Science and Mathematics Talent, is a framework to increase the number of students in science, mathematics, engineering, and technology, enhance the career competitiveness of SMET graduates, and encourage more graduates to pursue the Ph.D. in science or engineering. These goals are accomplished by (1) curricular reform in calculus, chemistry, and physics; (2) broadening interdisciplinary programs; (3) faculty development in successful models of student learning and in effective use of technology in teaching; (4) structured undergraduate research training; (5) undergraduate research experiences with universities, industry, national laboratories; (6) scholarships; (7) summer institutes to help students transition from high school to college and to build academic foundations for success in first and second-year courses; and (8) competitive recruitment. Outstanding qualities of TALENT-21 include a unified approach among faculty in physics, chemistry, and mathematics to improve learning in the SMET "gate keeper" courses, and early involvement of students in research through structured training experiences.
