From the Department

UTPB's Title V Developing Hispanic Serving Institutions project, Students' Thoughtful Response to Educational Attainment and Mentorship (STREAM), addresses the region's K-12 teacher shortage by implementing evidence-based and high-impact strategies, activities, and services that will increase enrollment, persistence, completion, and placement rates of Hispanic and low-income students in UTPB's Education Preparation Program. Through coordinated activities, Project STREAM has three comprehensive goals: (1) to increase the enrollment of Hispanic, male, first-generation, and low-income students in teacher education programs by engaging with local school districts, community colleges, Hispanic families, and rural communities; (2) improve the retention and graduation rates of Hispanic, first-generation, and low income students through enhanced student services and expanding the paid teacher residency programs; (3) provide access to cutting-edge instructional technology resources and equipment to prepare students to meet Texas Technology Teaching Standards.

The STREAM grant was initiated in 2022 through a US Department of Education Hispanic Serving Institutions initiative. The College is committed to the preparation of competent and caring professionals for education and related disciplines.
