Abstract

To help strengthen the United States’ capacity for scientific advancement, technological innovation, and climate solutions by building diversity in the geosciences, Mount Saint Mary's University (a Hispanic Serving Institution, women's college, and primarily undergraduate institution) partnered with the University of Southern California (a research-intensive university) to establish the Geopaths Catalina Scholars Program to introduce and expand geosciences opportunities for MSMU students.
