Career and Technical Education Unit FORM: Sec II-A Local Application Program Information by TOP Code College: SAN DIEGO MIRAMAR COLLEGE REG CNTR Program Title: Biotechnology TOP Code: 043000 Briefly describe program improvement issue(s) concerning this TOP code and include specific examples. (Limited to 2,000 characters, or approximately ½ page of text.) The Miramar College Applied Program has reconfigured the certificate program from a local Certificate to a Certificate of Achievement in order to improve accountability and student success. The current local certificate program serves over 24 students per year. As the industry grew, the Intro. class has grown first to being offered twice per year and now on-line with likelihood of expanding. As a GE non-majors Bio class (Bio 131) it draws students into a STEM pathway. Effort will be placed on 1) bringing more non-traditional students, such as Veterans into the industry and 2) increasing the number of certificates awarded. Math continues to be an area where students struggle. This year will mark the conclusion of math curriculum development. Workkeys will be used this year to enhance this effort. Additionally, LMI indicated quality as an important need in Biotech curriculum. A boot camp class (Bio 134) that serves high school students in internships is offered each summer. Bio 131, the intro class is closely linked to a model 2+2 program articulation program. The project will support 13 teachers at 11 different schools across 3 districts and two of which are a new collaboration with the national movement known as Project Lead the Way in the 14-15 year and will be expanded in the next year. This program reaches many underserved schools and special populations. The annual science festival will be supported in order to reach out to the neighborhood special populations. It is important to maintain size and scope of services, collect better data/tracking, and employ consultants to maintain the personal and individual hands on quality instruction. Additionally, small equipment, supplies and a new microscope with camera is needed to support instruction in cell culture. A new Flow Cytometer was purchased and curriculum development is necessary for this instrument. This instrument will remove the need for one consultant each year. Briefly describe how the issue(s) will be addressed. (Limited to 2,000 characters, or approximately ½ page of text.) 1. Effort will be placed on 1) bringing more non-traditional students, such as Veterans into the industry and 2) increasing the number of certificates awarded. This will be accomplished through outreach events and marketing. 2. Linkages through articulation agreements are maintained through VTEA funds. The program is a model 2+2 program with a challenge by exam focus. A faculty member is required to administer and grade the articulation exam and maintain the high school relationships. VTEA funding will be used to support this effort 3. Continue to enhance a simulated workplace experience with a consultant/supervisor training the student thus simulating a work environment. A consultant is needed approximately 4-5 weeks during the year. Special industry standard supplies/materials are needed for this training. This funding is required to prepare industry ready students with the technical skills needed for cell culture. 4. When working in the small group setting additional supplies and materials are usually needed. VTEA funds will be used to improve the scope of work. One new microscope with camera is needed as are tissue culture supplies to maintain small group instruction 5. Curriculum Development for Flow Cytometry and math. 6. Use service learning Bio 277D to improve employability >Below are the nine 135(b) Requirements for Uses of Funds. Programs receiving these funds must meet these requirements. Indicate with a check mark those requirements that the program currently meets (met). Any remaining unmet requirement(s) must be addressed with completed or ongoing activities by June 30 for reporting in the final report.
