Becker gets federal Department of Education grant
WORCESTER — Becker College will
receive nearly $2 million in Title III funding
administered by the United States
Department of Education, under the
Strengthening Institutions Program.
Congressman James P. McGovern (D-
Worcester) recently visited campus to
announce the award of the competitive
grant. The grant is anticipated to be distributed
over five years, with $399,496 in
the first budget period.
“Becker College is doing laudable work
preparing its students for long-term academic
and real-world success,” said
McGovern. “Their expanding student success
and preparation programs will go a
long way in meeting their mission of getting
students ready for the global future,
and I’m thrilled to see these federal funds
make an immediate impact.”
“Becker College is ready to implement
the Strengthening Institutions funding,”
said Robert E. Johnson, Ph.D., president of
Becker College. “We believe in every student’s
potential for success, and this grant
represents an important opportunity for
Becker College to continue to deliver highly
educated global citizens, well prepared
to rise to the top of their careers.”
The grant will be used to fund the comprehensive
“From At-Risk to Success” program,
a coordinated series of successful
existing programs and new initiatives
ready to launch with receipt of the new
funds. The programs, targeted to assist students
with the transition from high school
to college and sustained success in subsequent
years, include expanding dual
enrollment with local high schools;
increased foundational course options and
first-year course assistants; in-class technology;
a broader faculty advising, tutoring,
and mentoring center, and expanded
“Living and Learning Communities,”
which group students in similar programs
together in mutually supportive residential
and academic space. With the infusion
of Title III funds, Supplemental
Instruction can be expanded to include a
number of additional disciplines.
The experience of senior Francis Torres
of Framingham serves as an example of
the progress that Becker has already seen
with its Supplemental Instruction program.
SI deploys experienced peer tutors
to assist students in the classroom. A peer
tutor in his major, criminal justice, and a
resident assistant, Torres served as a supplemental
instruction leader at the launch
of the SI program last year.
In addition to the Title III grant,
McGovern was instrumental in helping
Becker to secure a $540,072 grant by the

Administration in 2009, to support nursing
education.
Johnson commended McGovern’s longstanding
support of education, health care
and the people of Massachusetts.
“Congressman McGovern has supported
our efforts to advance nursing, and digital
games education, has lectured on campus,
and supported our students’ efforts to draw
attention to global humanitarian aid,”
Johnson said.
