Hispanic Serving Institutions: STEM Transitions, Experiences, and Mobility (HSI-STEM) Project:

Community colleges and Minority Serving Institutions (MSIs), including Hispanic Serving Institutions (HSIs), provide several pathways to the STEM pipeline and are key access points to postsecondary education for underrepresented racial minorities (URM). This study seeks to examine STEM pathways for students who began at community colleges, with a specific emphasis on URM students, student mobility across multiple institutions, and the role of HSIs.

Description of Student Responsibilities:

We are currently seeking graduate and undergraduate researchers with backgrounds in education, psychology or other related fields who are interested in gaining extensive experience in social science research. Graduate
 and undergraduate student researchers must be willing to commit to at least 5 hours per week for at least one semester, and contribute to a research project focused on short and long-term project deliverables. Student researchers will be responsible for assisting the RESISTE team with administrative duties essential to the research process, maintenance of a complex research database, verification of interview transcripts, coding of qualitative interview data, and preparation of literature reviews. Training for all tasks will be provided (e.g., CITI Training, use of NVivo qualitative data analysis software, etc.). Remote work is possible during the 2021-22 academic year upon discussion with RESISTE team leadership.
