HGTC Computer Science, Engineering and Mathematics Scholarship (CSEMS) Program. Scholars in Technology for the Twenty-first Century.

该项目每年向计算机、电子工程或土木工程技术副学士学位课程的学生颁发30个奖学金，为期四年。该项目是支持学者与同行和教师指导，让他们在信息技术协会的一个活跃的学生章，在儿童发展中心为有孩子的学生提供儿童保育，支持他们在学术成就中心的学术进步，并在自己的学科内与技术雇主发展伙伴关系和支持系统。该项目借鉴了以前授予的CSEMS项目的经验教训。以前的获奖者，谁是在行业工作，正在成为榜样，给予演示和支持目前的CSEMS收件人。三个项目中的每一个项目的系主任都提供了一个识别和推荐过程，以提高学者的保留率、毕业率和转学率。招聘和保留工作是专门针对代表性不足和非传统的学生，通过联邦资助的教育人才搜索计划，TRIO计划，其中包括一个向上的绑定程序，和一个加速大学招生计划。

The project is awarding thirty scholarships per year for four years to students enrolled in a computer, electronic engineering or civil engineering technologies associate degree program. The project is supporting the Scholars with peer and faculty mentoring, engaging them in an active student chapter of the Association of Information Technology, providing child care for students with children at a child development center, supporting their academic progress in academic achievement centers, and developing partnerships and support systems with technology employers within their own discipline. The project is building upon the lessons learned from a previously awarded CSEMS project. Previous recipients, who are working in industry, are becoming role models by giving presentations and supporting current CSEMS recipients. Departmental faculty within each of the three programs are providing an identification and referral process to improve retention, graduation and transfer rates of the scholars. Recruitment and retention efforts are specifically targeting underrepresented and non-traditional students through a federally funded Educational Talent Search program, TRIO programs that include an Upward Bound program, and a Program for Accelerated College Enrollment.
