Minority Access for Graduate Education and careers (MAGEC) in STEM Program Plus: Strengthening/Sustaining the Culture of Excellence for STEM Education at Savannah State University

在过去的五年中，萨凡纳州立大学启动了迄今为止最全面的计划，通过实施少数民族研究生教育和职业（MAGEC-STEM）计划，加强大学的科学、技术、工程和数学（STEM）教育。该计划的重点是增加入学人数，加强教学和学生支持服务。新的MAGEC-STEM Plus计划将通过以下三个目标，通过扩大和深化我们的外展，教学和指导活动，进一步加强大学的STEM卓越文化：1)课程开发，修订和加强改革；2)扩大本科生招聘，充实，保留和研究经验的途径；3)加强教师发展活动。该方案的结果将通过战略支助单位和方案网站、在区域和国家/科学会议上的介绍以及在科学期刊上的出版物向社区广泛传播。该项目将通过提供高质量的STEM学科学位课程，提高非洲裔美国人在高等教育中的参与度，推进大学的使命。

During the last five years, Savannah State University embarked on its most comprehensive program to date to strengthen science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) education at the University through the implementation of the Minority Access for Graduate Education and Careers (MAGEC-STEM) program. The program focused on increased enrollment and enhanced teaching and student support services. The new MAGEC-STEM Plus Program will further strengthen the culture of STEM excellence at the University by expanding and deepening our outreach, teaching, and mentoring activities through the following three objectives: 1) Curricular Development, Revision and Enhancement Reform, 2) Expanding Pathways for Undergraduate Recruitment, Enrichment, Retention and Research Experience, and 3) Strengthening the Faculty Development Activities. The program results will be disseminated widely to the community through SSU and program websites and presentations at regional and national/scientific meetings and publications in scientific journals. This program will advance the mission of the University through its provision of high quality degree programs in STEM disciplines that increase the participation of African Americans in higher education.
