The objective of the scholarship program in computer science and mathematics at Hampton University (HU) is to significantly increase the number of underrepresented minorities completing the baccalaureate degree and then pursuing graduate degrees in these fields. The Computer Science and Mathematics Scholarship Program (CSMS) provides an educational environment and support that prepares students for graduate studies. This is accomplished by exposing selected low-income students to a unique series of experiences during their final two years at Hampton University. A graduate component of CSMS provides tuition assistance for students who wish to matriculate in established Master's degree programs in Computer Science and Mathematics at HU.The CSMS project is closely aligned with an on-going eleven-year program at HU (Student Enhancement in Mathematics and Science (SEMS)) funded by the Office of Naval Research that has proven successful in meeting its goals of preparing minority students for graduate school and subsequently, the nation's workforce. The primary focus of the CSMS project is the student- providing the student with all the tools, personal assistance, and skills needed to successfully matriculate at any graduate degree granting institution in the nation.The specific components of the CSMS program are: (1)A Scholarship Program for current high performing students that are able to establish financial need; (2) A Research Participation Program; (3) An Academic and Mathematics Tutorial Program; (4) A Student Assessment Program; (5) Summer internships; and (6) A Visiting Lecturers Program.CSMC graduate students work closely with the undergraduate component of the program. Their duties are to serve as tutors, advisors, and research mentors to augment the experiences provided by faculty researchers for the undergraduates.

汉普顿大学(HU)计算机科学和数学奖学金项目的目标是大幅增加完成学士学位并随后攻读这些领域研究生学位的少数族裔人数。计算机科学和数学奖学金计划(CSMS)提供了一个教育环境和支持，为学生准备研究生学习做准备。这是通过让精选的低收入学生在汉普顿大学的最后两年接触到一系列独特的经历来实现的。CSMS的研究生部分为希望进入华中大学计算机科学和数学硕士课程的学生提供学费援助。CSMS项目与海军研究办公室资助的HU(学生增强数学和科学(SEMS))正在进行的11年计划密切相关，该计划已被证明成功地实现了少数族裔学生为研究生院和随后的国家劳动力做准备的目标。CSMS项目的主要重点是学生--为学生提供成功进入全国任何研究生学位授予机构所需的所有工具、个人帮助和技能。CSMS项目的具体组成部分包括：(1)为能够确定经济需求的当前优秀学生提供的奖学金计划；(2)研究参与计划；(3)学术和数学辅导计划；(4)学生评估计划；(5)暑期实习；(6)客座讲师计划。CSMC研究生与该计划的本科生部分密切合作。他们的职责是担任导师、顾问和研究导师，以增加教研员为本科生提供的经验。
