TAMUCC - SOS Collegiate STEM Institute

The Collegiate STEM Institute (CSI) is a 4-week summer program that takes recent High School Graduates that will be attending TAMUCC as well as Transfer Students; and prepare them for their journey into their college career. We expose our students to a first-hand experience into the college environment as well as educate them on financial literacy. This program serves to get our students college ready by the end of the summer.

Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi (TAMU-CC) received funding through the Hispanic Serving Institution (HSI) Title V for our STEM Operation Success Program (SOS) which includes a summer bridge titled Collegiate STEM Institute (CSI). CSI provides underserved high school graduates as well as transfer STEM students that will be attending TAMU-CC as freshmen or sophomore transfers experiences to prepare them for their journey into university life. We expose our students to firsthand experiences into the TAMU-CC STEM environment as well as educate them on financial literacy for financial success. CSI student experiences include Gulf of Mexico field work, laboratory experiments, service experience and STEM lectures in an inclusive and diverse environment. The CSI video provides a broader view of the summer program. The major goal of CSI is retention and graduation from TAMU-CC. CSI is the pipeline for Hispanic underserved students to enter STEM careers after graduation.
