Computer Science, Engineering, and Mathematics Scholarships (CSEMS) Program

NSF计算机科学、工程和数学奖学金(CSEMS)计划正在科学与工程学院内实施，目标是在学术上有天赋但正在攻读计算机科学、工程和数学学士学位的低收入学生。由于该学院的学生人口中近50%是少数族裔，该大学处于独特的地位，可以利用UTSA-CSEMS计划来扩大计算机科学、工程和数学领域中代表性不足的少数族裔的机会。根据该计划，40名学生将得到支持，该计划提供教师指导、学术提升机会、职业规划援助和其他旨在增加就业机会和鼓励学生深造的活动。教师导师正在指导学生在各自研究领域的就业机会和研究生院的机会，并向学生介绍研究。雇用大量计算机科学、工程和数学专业的地方组织正在安排学生参观公司的设施，各公司的代表也与学者会面，介绍他们组织的各个方面。正在跟踪该计划的结果，目标是在整个学院和整个大学的基础上实施该计划的成功方面。

An NSF Computer Science, Engineering, and Mathematics Scholarship (CSEMS) program is being implemented within the College of Sciences and Engineering and targets academically talented but low-income students pursuing Bachelor of Science degrees in computer science, engineering, and mathematics. Because the student population at the institution is nearly 50% minority, the university is in a unique position to use the UTSA-CSEMS program to broaden the opportunities of underrepresented minorities in the fields of computer science, engineering, and mathematics. Forty students are receiving support under the program, and the program provides faculty mentors, academic enhancement opportunities, career planning assistance, and other activities designed to increase employment opportunities and encourage students to pursue advanced graduate study. Faculty mentors are advising the students on career opportunities and opportunities in graduate school in their fields of study and introducing the students to research. Local organizations which hire a significant number of computer science, engineering, and mathematics majors are arranging visits to the companies' facilities by the students, and representatives of various companies are also meeting with the scholars to make presentations about aspects of their organizations. The outcomes of the program are being tracked, with the goal being to implement the successful aspects of the program on a college-wide and university-wide basis.
