Roots, Resilience and Reach: Strengthening the STEM Infrastructure at Kapi'olani Community College, University of Hawai'i

卡皮奥拉尼社区学院的拟议项目：加强STEM基础设施：加强Kapiol‘olani社区学院的STEM基础设施，将以我们学生的文化知识和经验为基础，支持学生留校和学业成功(Resilience)，并在他们的第二年(REACH)提供引人注目的新的转学和职业机会(REACH)。我们预计TCUP将通过以下方式刺激我们的STEM基础设施：(1)加强STEM基础设施，使学院成为一个突出的“科学人才孵化器”，专注于培养“一支多样化的、具有国际竞争力和全球参与的STEM劳动力和准备充分的公民”；(2)强调为更多夏威夷学生提供攻读STEM专业并成功完成学位的机会；。(3)通过四个指导途径加强STEM课程，帮助学院的学生攻读STEM专业并成功完成学位；及。(4)扩大STEM外展计划，以改善学院的入学准备，提高他们的成功率。

The proposed program, Roots, Resilience, and Reach: Strengthening the STEMInfrastructure at Kapiol'olani Community College, will build on the cultural knowledge and experience of our students (roots), support student retention and academic success (resilience), and provide compelling new transfer and career opportunities in their second year (reach).We anticipate that the TCUP will stimulate the following "value-added" dimensions to ourSTEM infrastructure by: (1) strengthening the STEM infrastructure so the College becomes a salient "incubator of science talent" focused on preparing "a diverse, internationally competitive and globally-engaged STEM workforce and well-prepared citizens"; (2) emphasizing STEM opportunities for more Hawaiian students to pursue STEM majors and successfully complete their degrees; (3) enhancing STEM curriculum through four guided pathways to help the Colleges' students pursue STEM majors and successfully complete their degrees; and (4) expanding STEM outreach programs to improve the preparation of the College's entering students and enhance their rate of success.
