Center for Educational Partnerships Summer Programs 2019: 23 Programs Serving 910 Participants7/11/2019
UCI's Center for Educational Partnerships (CFEP) in the School of Education, the first of its kind in the UC system, creates collaborations that support preparation for and success in higher education. The CFEP was created in 1996 to employ new strategies to address ongoing systemic educational inequities and ensure equal access to higher education for all. CFEP programs and services focus on students facing economic challenges and those who would be the first in their families to pursue higher education.
Programs offered throughout the academic year and during the summer provide academic and enrichment opportunities for K-12 students, community college and undergraduate students, and K-12 educators. Working collaboratively with schools and communities, the CFEP’s programs impact more than 12,000 students annually, including more than 900 students enrolled in CFEP's 23 summer offerings. In commenting on the impact of CFEP programs, Stephanie Reyes-Tuccio, Assistant Vice Chancellor, Education Partnerships, communicated, “CFEP has been key to UCI’s efforts to create greater educational equity in our region in and increase social mobility. The programs we offer, simply put, can be life changing.” Click on each title below to access program information in each category.
