Who we are
Collegiate Science and Technology Entry Program (CSTEP) provides academic advising, career counseling, financial support, and paid internship opportunities to ethnically underrepresented or economically disadvantaged college students pursuing a career in science, technology, math, engineering, or licensed profession.
CSTEP students agree to engage in some form of internship, field work, or research prior to graduation. Plus, those who transfer to four-year colleges serve as alumni mentors for new OCC CSTEP students.
