| Summary: | The Hispanic-Serving Community Colleges STEM Pipelines (HSCC-STEM) study is a research project that explores the transitions to and through Hispanic-serving two-year institutions for underrepresented minoritized STEM students. This brief uncovers the most viable HSCC STEM pathways for Latinx and other underrepresented minoritized students as well as which fields they are more likely to persist in, and the promising practices at HSCCs that provide transfer pathways leading to further education--on ramps to STEM baccalaureates. It focuses on STEM degrees conferred in Florida by race and gender at three institutional types: (1) Hispanic-Serving Community Colleges (HSCCs), which are 2-year institutions with 25% Hispanic student enrollment or more; (2) Emerging HSCCs, which are 2-year institutions with 15% to 24.9% Hispanic student enrollment; and (3) Non-HSCCs, which are institutions with less than 15% Hispanic student enrollment. |
