This $200,000 Project Grant award, funded by the National Science Foundation's STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076), aims to increase student access to advanced chemistry instrumentation at Columbia Basin College, a Hispanic-Serving Institution in Pasco, Washington. The project will purchase new gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) instruments, and incorporate their use into freshman-level general chemistry labs. It will also develop a 1-credit instrumentation course and a quarterly instrumentation seminar to provide more students, including those in the college's Mathematics, Engineering, Science Achievement (MESA) program, with hands-on exposure to these instruments. The project's goals are to increase the number of students gaining HPLC and GC-MS experience from 10 to over 50 annually, and to grow enrollment in sophomore-level organic chemistry and research courses from 10 to over 30 students. It will investigate the impact of these instrumentation experiences on students' future STEM course enrollment and career aspirations.
