SHIP-GEO: Stimulating Hispanic Participation in the Geosciences

The goal of UTRGV SHIP-GEO (funded by National Science Foundation; NSF Award#1600585) is to contribute to diversifying and reducing the predicted shortage in the US geoscience workforce (Earth, Environmental, and Marine Sciences) for the coming decade. The project’s goal will be accomplished by implementing activities geared toward student awareness, recruitment and retention, and sustaining the activities beyond the award period.
