The goal of UNC-Chapel Hill AGEP is to address the under representation of minority faculty in the STEM sciences, as well as the SBE sciences. 

AGEP seeks to play a role in encouraging historically underrepresented minority students at UNC-Chapel Hill to consider pursuing the Ph.D. and ultimately careers in research and the professoriate.
