The University of Hawaii will initiate a 6-week residential Young Scholars project for 26 students in grades ll-l2 in agricultural science. The goal of the NSF Young Scholars Pacific Region Program is to increase the knowledge of high ability high school students in the careers, philosophy and ethics, and research methodology in the agricultural sciences. The Program will include both a summer program and follow-up activities. The former will consist of four inter- related learning experiences: classroom sessions; field trips; research projects under the guidance of scientific mentors; and informal learning situations. Participants, who will come from Hawaii, American Samoa, Guam, Micronesia, and the Northern Marianas, will live in University of Hawaii dormitories and use the facilities of the University and its College of Tropical Agriculture and Human Resources. They will be selected on PSAT or SAT scores, high school grades, recommendation from teachers or counselors, and students' essays. During the academic year students will continue work on their research projects and participate in a follow-up meeting.

夏威夷大学将启动一个为期6周的青年学者寄宿项目，面向26名农业科学二年级到二年级的学生。NSF青年学者太平洋地区计划的目标是增加高能力高中生在农业科学的职业、哲学和伦理学以及研究方法方面的知识。该计划将包括暑期计划和后续活动。前者将包括四种相互关联的学习经历：课堂教学；实地考察；科学导师指导下的研究项目；以及非正式学习环境。参与者将来自夏威夷、美属萨摩亚、关岛、密克罗尼西亚和北马里亚纳群岛，他们将住在夏威夷大学的宿舍，并使用该大学及其热带农业与人力资源学院的设施。他们将根据PSAT或SAT成绩、高中成绩、教师或辅导员的推荐以及学生的作文进行挑选。在学年期间，学生们将继续他们的研究项目，并参加后续会议。
