10. Program-level goals
Interdisciplinary programs, majors or certificate programs with a strong geoscience component designed to prepare students for careers addressing challenges of sustainability;
Programs that engage students with issues of sustainability and their scientific underpinnings and provide a continuous pathway from high school to a STEM degree;
Programs that increase the enrollment and graduation of students from underrepresented groups to broaden access in the geosciences;
2Programs that broaden access to science by introducing geoscience across the liberal arts curriculum;
7 Inter-institutional programs that bring geoscience into courses at institutions without geoscience faculty including minority-serving institutions and 2YCs;
3 Programs that strengthen the role of geoscience in the preparation and professional development of K-12 teachers, including but not limited to Earth science teachers;
10 Programs that introduce or strengthen the role of geoscience in the preparation of STEM majors outside of the geosciences.
4 Programs that facilitate the transition from college or university to the workforce.
