What is the Academic Pipeline Project?
The Academic Pipeline Project (APP) is a major knowledge transfer and outreach initiatives within the STEM-US Center sponsored by the National Science Foundation. Specifically, these diversity programs (e.g. summer research programs, course-based research, experiential learning opportunities, and bridge programs) support and propel members of the HBCU community along their educational journey. The Academic Pipeline Project serves as an online comprehensive resource guide that illustrates research, career, and life preparation initiatives. This project utilizes an interactive, national GIS mapping database containing STEM academic pipeline programs housed at HBCUs.
