Undergraduate Scholarship Program in a Technogenesis Environment

这项针对经济困难学生的奖学金计划通过在史蒂文斯大学由教师指导的夏季学分研究来促进他们的成功，这代表着与本科生研究的标准模式背道而驰。另一种途径是，对于那些不喜欢研究的学生，学者们可以在学年期间参与行业赞助的设计项目。该计划的显著特点是它与史蒂文斯正在实施的一项名为Technogensis的全研究所倡议的关系。技术创新指的是一种组织导向，旨在促进学术和学习方面的跨学科合作，从发现知识到将其应用于技术，从概念到商业化。技术发生本科生奖学金计划(UPT)建立在我们让本科生参与研究的丰富经验的基础上，但还增加了创新的方面，即在将研究过渡到技术实现的过程中教育学生。它还建立在史蒂文斯帮助贫困学生在大学和他们的职业生涯中取得成功的丰富成功经验的基础上。

This scholarship program for financially disadvantaged students facilitates their success through faculty-mentored summer research for credit at Stevens that represents a departure from the standard mode of undergraduate research. An alternate route is for the scholars to engage in industry-sponsored design projects during the academic year for those students not inclined towards research. The distinguishing feature of the program is its relationship to an Institute-wide initiative that Stevens is implementing known as Technogenesis. Technogenesis refers to an organizational orientation that seeks to foster interdisciplinary collaboration in scholarship and learning that spans the continuum from the discovery of knowledge to its application in technology, from conception through to commercialization. The Undergraduate Scholarships Program for Technogenesis (UPT) builds on our extensive experience of engaging undergraduates in research, but with the added innovative dimension of also educating students in the transitioning of research to technology realization. It also builds upon the wealth of successful experience at Stevens in helping disadvantaged students succeed in college and their careers.
