The Predominantly Black Institutions Program (PBI) at Medgar Evers College provides academic support services known as Supplemental Instruction (SI), SI is a student–centered program that utilizes peer led study groups to help students succeed in traditionally difficult courses such as; ENG 112,150, MTH 136, 138 151, BIO201, CHEM 105,201 and Developmental Math MTH 09, 010. These study groups are conducted by peer students who have previously completed these courses and have demonstrated competency in the course and are recommended by a professor. In addition; PBI conducts graduate school awareness activities, workshops and campus tours within CUNY and private colleges or universities to increase student’s awareness and involvement in their field of study.
These activities support student development of their academic goals through workshops, field trips, research and community networks.
