Student Success and Transfer Articulation through Research and Support Services


STARS Program is funded by a Department of Education grant and aims to increase the institutional capacity of CPP, Citrus, and Mt. SAC to engage Hispanic, Pell Grant eligible, and underrepresented students in STEM disciplines through undergraduate research and related wrap-around services.  
The goal of this program is to ensure exposure to undergraduate research early and throughout the student’s university and college career with support services that ensure students develop a sense of STEM self-efficacy, receive timely information, receive proactive advising and mentoring, and foster students’ sense of belonging to both higher education and the STEM community.
