Conference Overview

2019 MSEIP/Science Consortium of Minority Schools Conference supports the overarching goal to:

1) improve the percentage of change in the number of African American students and women enrolled full-time in STEM degree programs; and

2) who graduate within six years of enrollment in selected HBCUs.

The conference is convened to assess and improve the mechanism for shared resources across schools for improving student achievement, test scores, graduation rates, and selection of science and engineering careers.
