This grant will establish a scholarship fund to enable talented, low-income undergraduates to pursue baccalaureate degrees at the University of Washington in the College of Engineering, departments of Computer Science and Mathematics, and the Applied and Computational Mathematical Science (ACMS) program. This scholarship fund will significantly expand the amount of financial assistance available to these students, thereby increasing their retention, as well as their competitiveness for permanent job placement or enrollment in graduate degree programs. Scholarship recipients will be linked with an existing integrated network of successful student support programs where they will receive advising, mentoring, and professional development and leadership training. Another benefit, that cannot be underestimated, is that it will maximize the existing integration between the College of Engineering, Computer Science, Mathematics, and ACMS, as well as the University of Washington's (UW) student support structure.

这笔赠款将建立一个奖学金基金，使有才华的低收入本科生能够在华盛顿大学工程学院、计算机科学和数学系以及应用和计算数学科学（ACMS）课程攻读学士学位。该奖学金基金将大大增加这些学生可获得的财政援助金额，从而提高他们的保留率，以及他们在永久就业或研究生学位课程入学方面的竞争力。奖学金获得者将与现有的成功学生支持计划的综合网络联系起来，在那里他们将获得咨询，指导，专业发展和领导力培训。另一个不可低估的好处是，它将最大限度地提高工程学院、计算机科学学院、数学学院和ACMS学院以及华盛顿大学（UW）学生支持结构之间的现有整合。
