**********************************************************


Dear colleagues,

A joint Pima Community College (PCC) and UArizona team is looking for STEM faculty highly motivated to mentor Pima STEM students pre-transfer while at the same time earning supplemental compensation and gaining professional development in mentoring in an inclusive, asset-based manner.

The experience will involve 1:1 mentoring, as well as participation in a cross-institution community of practice, where you will receive ongoing support from peers as you develop your mentoring philosophy.
Details about the National Science Foundation grant supporting this work—Bridging Faculty and Student Cultures: Culturally Responsive Support for STEM Students Transferring Between Two- and Four-Year Hispanic Serving Institutions—can be found at the following link, along with other relevant details and a brief online application:

https://stem.arizona.edu/nsf-s-stem-grant

Eligibility:

  *   Research and teaching faculty (including instructors, lecturers, and postdocs) at the University of Arizona or Pima Community College
  *   Must be teaching or conducting research in STEM fields
  *   Preferred STEM fields for faculty: biological sciences, physical sciences, mathematical sciences, computer and information sciences, geosciences and related fields, and engineering. (Eligible student participants for this program must be pursuing a degree in one of these fields due to the restrictions of our S-STEM grant.)

For more information on the student program, please see https://asems.arizona.edu/programs/pima-uaz-stem-bridge-program.

Warmly,
Regina Deil-Amen, UArizona
Kimberly Sierra-Cajas, UArizona
