Howard University Science, Engineering and Mathematics (HUSEM) Program: Our Best Practices Presented by Lorraine N. Fleming, Ph.D. Howard University Professor, Civil Engineering at QEM Network HBCU-UP Workshop Friday, September 9, 2005

Before proposal preparation… Reflected on … Assessment data to see what worked well & what did not Activities that have been institutionalized Howard’s mission & strategic plan

HUSEM I HUSEM II Changes Funding $3 M…$2.5M (w/o cost sharing) STEM Disciplines Chemistry ~ Physics ~ Computer Science ~ Engineering ~ Mathematics ~ Biology ~

Increase the number of …  BS degree recipients in STEM  Graduates academically prepared and motivated for graduate study in STEM HUSEM GOALS

HUSEM II ELEMENTS Resource Retention Center New Frontiers in Science & Engineering Course Distinguished Scholars Program Undergraduate Research Program

Distinguished Scholars Program High Ability Students Ph.D. Bound

Distinguished Scholars Program (continued) Summer ActivitiesAcademic Yr Activities Advanced courses Research Methods Visits to Research Universities 4-week residential program Group registration Weekly Enrichment Activities Service Learning Learning community

Undergraduate Research Program On Campus –Academic year & Summer Off Campus Other Research Institutions National Laboratories Weekly seminars (required) Research presentations (required) Accountability—Pay incentives

Resource Retention Center Tutoring (Gatekeeper … bottleneck courses) Supplemental Instruction Graduate School Preparation GRE Preparation Identify graduate programs/fellowship opportunities Review of applications and personal statements Visits to Research Universities

New Course: New Frontiers in Science and Engineering Why? …the changing nature of S&E research and practice Fertile Research Areas Bioinformatics/genomics Computational biology Medicinal/green chemistry Nanotechnology/ nanoscience Ethics in science and engineering Promote an interdisciplinary sense and awareness among the STEM community

Final Thoughts 1.Do not simply propose continuing previous activities 2.Build on previous successes 3.Propose something new and novel
