| Summary | Geoscience remains one of the least diverse STEM fields. National geoscience undergraduate enrollments declined significantly over time, with graduate enrollments stagnant for decades. Limited exposure to earth sciences in K-12 curricula contributes to these trends since many students discover geosciences after entering college. However, geoscience careers are projected to outpace the national employment trends over the next decade. This volume addresses these issues by focusing on geoscience education, curriculum innovation, workforce preparation, and diversity enhancement. Chapters offer educators and institutions strategies to increase enrollment, diversity, and graduation rates to benefit all the geoscience disciplines and, ultimately, society. |
