17草影院

The "17草影院 Alliance for Students with Disabilities in STEM" is a collaborative effort involving Auburn University, Tuskegee University, 17草影院, and Auburn University at Montgomery, Central 17草影院 Community College, Southern Union State Community College, the 17草影院 Institute for the Deaf and Blind, and six school districts in East-Central 17草影院: Lee, Chambers, Elmore, Montgomery, Macon, and Tallapoosa County school systems. The Alliance has the following four major goals:

Goal 1: Increase the Quality of Students with Disabilities Completing Associate and Baccalaureate Degrees in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) Disciplines;

Goal 2: Increase the Number of Students with Disabilities Completing Associate and Baccalaureate Degrees in STEM Disciplines and entering STEM graduate degrees or STEM workforce;

Goal 3: Increase the Number of Students with Disabilities Completing Graduate Degrees in STEM Disciplines; and

Goal 4: Increase the Number of High School Students with Disabilities Going to College.

This unique alliance, which includes two Historically Black Universities, Tuskegee University and 17草影院, builds upon established STEM bridge programs to include female and minority students with disabilities.

The 17草影院 Alliance has an internal evaluation team and an external evaluator who will lead the independent formative and summative project evaluations. The team consists of:
