Expansion in Science and Technology: an Urban Partnership (TEST: UP)
This National Science Foundation Grant links California
State University, Fullerton with Mt. San Antonio College and Santa Ana College
together in activities and initiatives that will produce more science,
technology, engineering and math transfers to four-year institutions. You can
be a part of it by joining in the activities and events happening now at Mt.
SAC!
Mentoring is available at Mt. SAC for STEM Students! Speak
with faculties who have already made the journey into graduate education in
your field. They will be able to "tell it like it is" and give you a
picture of the career options open to you as a Mt. SAC STEM graduate.
E-mail Oscar Flores
, if
you are interested in participating in the Mentoring Program.
The goal of the TEST: UP program is to provide
advisement and guidance to Mt. San Antonio College students with career and
educational goals in STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics).
The program is designed to make students aware of support programs and
resources on campus and to ensure that they are receiving the proper guidance
for successful transfer to a four-year university. The TEST: UP STEM Scholars
portfolio will assist you in preparing to transfer to a new institution by
making sure you are prepared and aware of various opportunities available to
you and you will also receive a $100 book scholarship for your participation in
TEST: UP and completion of the STEM Scholars portfolio. To print a list of the
STEM Scholars portfolio requirements,

Supplemental Instruction (SI)
Workshops
Introductory college courses in science and math can be challenging. SI
is a learning enhancement program. SI is designed to organize and improve the
ways in which you prepare for class outside of class-time. SI may be attached
to your class section. These workshops will provide you with a systematic and
disciplined approach for processing the subject material assigned by the
professor. Supplemental instruction sessions are not remedial and are open to
every student in your class. Ask your instructor if there is a SI workshop for
your class.
If you are looking for a place to study, join TEST: UP in Building 61 room 3316!
