Academic Initiative

Howard Hampton Morgan State AGEP Alliance

  • Sponsor: National Science Foundation (NSF)

Program Overview

  • Through a progressive sequence of increasingly engaging and challenging activities, future faculty will acquire the knowledge, skills, and competencies required for a career in the professoriate. Beginning with online webinars designed to inform and stimulate interest in an academic career, students will progress to engagement activities which include credit-based courses in evidence-based pedagogies and culturally responsive assessments culminating in a teaching apprenticeship at a community college. This sequential model integrates theoretical knowledge gained in the classroom with the practical experience obtained during the teaching apprenticeship, allowing for an authentic context-based learning experience—basic prerequisites for teaching excellence.

Benefits

  • The sequential model of faculty preparation within the well-established STEM PhD programs at three HBCUs and four Community Colleges will prepare a cadre of URM doctorate professionals ready for the professoriate in higher education institutions.
