We designed a holistic program that benefits the student (STEM Advantage Scholar), their family and community resulting in a generational impact with a clear path to address the gender and racial wealth gaps. We selected California State University (CSU) as our first university partner because the CSU is the largest and most ethnically diverse four-year public university system in the nation, and grants over 50% of all undergraduate degrees earned by Californias Latinx, African American and Native American students. STEM Advantage focuses on women and underserved communities, who are mostly low-income, first-generation college students, earning a bachelors degree in a STEM field and enrolled full-time at California State University (CSU) campuses in Southern California the greater Los Angeles region, Orange County, and San Diego. All are Hispanic-Serving Institutions (HSIs).Our program extends beyond graduation supporting alumni with a network of corporate leaders and career development to help them advance in their careers, build wealth, and have a generational impact. Scholars and alumni Pay It Forward as role models and mentors to excite young girls and boys about STEM. If they can see it, they can be it! In Fall 2021, STEM Advantage launched a Freshmen STEM Career Pathways program to engage first-year college students, especially women, Black and Latinx students, provide exposure to STEM career opportunities, and drive persistence in a STEM major.
