MESA
Mathematics, Engineering, Science Achievement (MESA) serves first-generation, low-income students who seek to transfer to four-year universities to earn calculus-based STEM bachelor's degrees. MESA is changing the face of science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) by creating and developing a new generation of STEM leaders. Our programs fuel diversity by propelling historically underrepresented groups toward STEM degrees and professional careers.Objectives
- Increase the number of underrepresented, economically and educationally disadvantaged or first-generation students who pursue degrees in STEM fields, and who successfully transfer to four-year colleges and universities.
