Workshop for Informing Hispanic-Serving Institutions of Some Lessons Learned from the Historically Black Colleges and Universities Undergraduate Program and TCU Program

该奖项为研讨会提供资金，以批判性地审查和讨论成功的科学，技术，工程和数学（STEM）计划，以及从历史上的黑人学院和大学本科生计划（HBCU-UP）和部落学院和大学本科生计划（TCUP）中吸取的机构，政策，计划，教学和课程经验教训，以告知西班牙裔服务机构（HSI）。少数民族服务机构也存在类似的问题，包括拥有未充分利用的人才社区，学生往往准备不足，无法接受高等教育。 HSI可以从两个本科重点课程中吸取教训，作为提高西班牙裔学生追求STEM学位和职业的招聘，保留和毕业率的一种手段，帮助HSI加强他们的机构，并进行创新，以更好地服务于西班牙裔社区和国家。研讨会的建议将有助于NSF？我们努力扩大所有代表性不足的少数民族的参与，并促进世纪多元化和有竞争力的STEM劳动力的发展，正如《美国竞争法》所规定的那样。

The award provides funding for a workshop to critically review and discuss successful science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) programs, and the institutional, policy, programmatic, pedagogical and curricular lessons to be learned from the Historically Black Colleges and Universities Undergraduate Program (HBCU-UP) and Tribal College and Universities Undergraduate Program (TCUP) to inform Hispanics Serving institutions (HSIs). Minority Serving Institutions share similar issues, including having communities of underutilized talent with students often under-prepared to engage in higher education. HSIs can learn lessons from the two undergraduate focused programs as a means to increase the recruitment, retention, and graduation rates for Hispanic students pursing STEM degrees and careers, assist HSIs to strengthen their institutions, and innovate to better serve the Hispanic community and the nation. Recommendations from the workshop will aid the NSF?s efforts to broaden participation of all underrepresented minorities, and facilitate the development of a diverse and competitive STEM workforce for the 21st century as mandated by the America Competes Act.
