Project TEAM is a research and development initiative designed to increase the number of students from underrepresented minority backgrounds who complete their baccalaureate degree and enter the teaching profession. Based on the theme of “strengthening social justice through education,” Project TEAM offers a supportive teaching-learning community for selected students and provides academic, social, and financial assistance as needed. An important part of Project TEAM is the honors seminar that students take each semester, which is limited to students in TEAM and may be taken for 1-3 credits. The honors seminars focus on issues of social justice, multicultural teaching, collaborative inquiry, professional development, and educational leadership. Criteria for acceptance include academic record (a minimum GPA of 2.5), academic goals (a genuine interest in intellectual development and lifelong learning), involvement in community service, and a commitment to a career in education. Students admitted into Project TEAM may participate in any of the teacher education programs offered on the Bloomington campus.
