Fresno State STEM Collaboratives
 
 
 
CSU STEM VISTA members support the academic and professional success of traditionally underrepresented students in STEM, including low-income, first generation, students of color and women. VISTA members are placed in CSU STEM departments, colleges, and academically-based institutes to support new and existing efforts and build capacity to offer more engaging, hands-on learning experiences, such as service learning, internships, and undergraduate research. Research has shown that these type of experiences, particularly among underrepresented groups, has resulted in increased graduation rates, retention and student success.
