The University of North Carolina Mathematics and Science Education Network (MSEN), 1988 Summer Scholars Programs will be a major component of MSEN's Pre-College Program in mathematics and science for historically underrepresented students. The MSEN Pre-College Program is an academic enrichment program that has its goal graduating minority and female students from high school with sufficient interest and preparation in mathematics, science and English to pursue math or science based fields at the university level. Summer Scholars Program activities will be offered to 320 junior and senior high (grades 7-12) minority and female students at four campuses within the statewide UNC System. The Summer Scholars Program is an integral component of the MSEN Pre- College Program through which participating students receive intense, experiential earning activities in mathematics, science and communications through small group and individual interaction. The Summer Scholars Program involves parents, teachers, and business and university scientists and engineers in the students development. Each Summer Scholars Program consists of four courses that meet daily for one hour--mathematics, science projects, communications, and instrumental enrichment--as well as field trips, meetings with university and business scientists, and program involving parents. The courses are academically intensive, challenging and enriching supplements to regular school-year courses. These courses enable students to improve and refine their knowledge and skills with individual and group instruction from teachers, participation in laboratory and field work, interaction with business and university scientists and engineers, and through team approaches to learning.

北卡罗来纳大学数学和科学教育网络(MSen)，1988年暑期学者计划将是mSen为历史上代表性不足的学生提供的数学和科学预科计划的主要组成部分。MSen大学前计划是一项学术充实计划，其目标是让高中毕业的少数族裔和女性学生对数学、科学和英语有足够的兴趣和准备，以便在大学水平上攻读数学或科学领域。暑期奖学金计划活动将在全州范围的北卡罗来纳大学系统内的四个校园内向320名初中和高中(7-12年级)少数民族和女性学生提供。暑期奖学金计划是mSen大学预科计划的一个组成部分，通过该计划，参与计划的学生可以通过小组和个人互动获得密集的、体验式的数学、科学和交流活动。暑期奖学金计划吸引了家长、教师、商业和大学科学家和工程师参与学生的发展。每个暑期奖学金项目由四门课程组成，每天举行一小时的会议--数学、科学项目、交流和工具丰富--以及实地考察、与大学和商业科学家的会议，以及有家长参与的项目。这些课程是学术密集型的，具有挑战性，是对常规学年课程的补充。这些课程使学生能够通过教师的个人和小组指导、参与实验室和实地工作、与商业和大学科学家和工程师互动以及通过团队学习方法来改进和完善他们的知识和技能。
