This CSEMS scholarship program at the University of Arizona is a partnership between five colleges and is intended to increase student graduation rates while improving academic performance. The PIs are working to enhance the academic environment for CSEMS scholars as they complete an undergraduate or graduate degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or Mathematics. The project provides approximately 44 scholarships that range from one to four years. Students are recruited through departmental listservs, graduate admissions committees, the financial aid office, and outreach programs. Students are connected to the career/advising/mentoring services of the university and the support structures designed specifically for CSEMS scholars. Each PI works with a small group of recipients in their field to ensure students are making academic progress and to discuss career options. Support structures include the Career Services Office, Financial Aid, the Graduate College, GRE workshops, centralized point of contact, and a Web site designed and maintained specifically for the needs of CSEMS scholars. The project focuses on participation of underrepresented groups in counseling and mentoring sessions as well as recruitment efforts such as a minority graduate student mailing list, and outreach programs into high schools and community colleges. To advance discovery and understanding while promoting teaching, training and learning, all investigators encourage students to join the respective professional societies and to participate at professional meetings and if possible will fund students to attend. Students are notified of career fairs on campus, internship opportunities in their fields, and government-sponsored internships. CSEMS scholars may participate in teaching undergraduates in the Computer Science section leader program (several have in the past). CSEMS scholars are encouraged to consider graduate school and will be invited to participate in GRE workshops that are funded by this grant.

亚利桑那大学的CSEMS奖学金计划是五所学院之间的合作伙伴关系，旨在提高学生的毕业率，同时提高学习成绩。 PI正在努力提高CSEMS学者的学术环境，因为他们完成了计算机科学，工程或数学的本科或研究生学位。 该项目提供大约44个奖学金，期限从一年到四年不等。学生是通过部门邮件列表，研究生招生委员会，财政援助办公室和推广计划招募。 学生连接到大学的职业/咨询/指导服务和专门为CSEMS学者设计的支持结构。每个PI都与他们所在领域的一小群接受者合作，以确保学生取得学术进步并讨论职业选择。 支持结构包括职业服务办公室，财政援助，研究生院，GRE研讨会，集中的联系点，以及专门为CSEMS学者的需求设计和维护的网站。该项目的重点是代表性不足的群体参与咨询和指导会议，以及招聘工作，如少数民族研究生邮寄名单，并推广到高中和社区大学的方案。 为了促进发现和理解，同时促进教学，培训和学习，所有研究人员鼓励学生加入各自的专业协会，并参加专业会议，如果可能的话，将资助学生参加。学生被告知校园招聘会，他们所在领域的实习机会以及政府赞助的实习机会。CSEMS学者可以参与计算机科学部门领导计划的本科生教学（过去有几个）。鼓励CSEMS学者考虑研究生院，并将被邀请参加由该补助金资助的GRE研讨会。
