MESA Awards
The Mathematics, Engineering, Science Achievement (MESA) Program is an academic enrichment program that provides community college science, technology, engineering, and math majors support to assist them in excelling academically to remain for the four-year program or complete their degree in a STEM area.
A key element of MESA’s success is its strong partnership with industry, which provides equipment, technical resources, internships, and volunteers. Companies and technical professional organizations work with MESA because they recognize the program’s success in helping students to become skilled technology professionals.
MESA students have the opportunity to attend Academic Excellence Workshops (AEWs) that are designed to help them succeed in their math, science, and engineering classes. The workshops teach students how to study cooperatively and collaboratively to better understand course content.
AEWs are provided to students who are enrolled together in specific college courses. In the workshops, students are divided into small groups to study together. Students learn techniques of group study and work on specifically developed problems designed to reinforce key concepts within the specific course. The key to these workshops is the development of worksheets (problems sets) to reinforce concepts or methods being studied in the specific math and/or science class.
Atlanta Metropolitan State College MESA program focus on four courses; MATH 1111, 1113 or 2201 or PHYS 1111, 1112 or CHEM 1211, 1212 or BIO 1107.
