中文摘要
这所女子学院正在招收和留住生物、化学或数学专业的学生。目标包括以下与科学、技术、工程和数学(STEM)相关的行动:课程改进、当地实习生和研究机会以及校园研究。该项目包括通过为S-STEM奖学金获得者提供额外支持来加强和扩大现有的学生支持和就业计划。除了奖学金外,该项目还包括修改生物、化学和数学课程,在这三个领域的每一门课程中引入服务学习部分,并增加STEM学生可进行的校园研究活动的数量。STEM教师开发了一个本科生研究计划,利用机构和当地的支持,促进生物、化学和数学专业之间的合作。更广泛的影响。通过实现S-STEM项目的主要目标,该项目服务于更广泛的目标,即增加生物、化学和数学专业的高素质女性毕业生数量。传播该机构从管理这一项目中获得的知识,为如何招收和留住STEM女学生以及妇女在STEM学科取得成功所必需的支持结构提供了见解。
英文摘要
This all women's college is recruiting and retaining students majoring in Biology, Chemistry, or Mathematics. The objectives include the following science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) related actions: curricula enhancement, local intern and research opportunities, and on-campus research. The project includes plans for enhancing and augmenting existing student support and job placement programs by providing additional support for S-STEM scholarship recipients.Intellectual Merit. In addition to scholarships, this project includes modifying the Biology, Chemistry, and Mathematics curricula to introduce service-learning components into one course in each of the three areas and to increase the number of on-campus research activities available for STEM students. STEM faculty have developed an undergraduate research program utilizing institutional and local support that fosters collaboration between Biology, Chemistry, and Mathematics majors. Broader Impacts. By meeting the primary goals of the S-STEM program, this project serves the broader objective of increasing the number of well-qualified women graduates in biology, chemistry, and mathematics. Dissemination of the knowledge that the institution gains from administering this project is providing insights on how to recruit and retain female STEM students, and the essential support structures necessary for women to succeed in STEM disciplines.
