This project awards 20 scholarships of $3,125 per year for 4 years to full-time undergraduate and graduate financially disadvantaged talented students to follow a challenging program in mathematics and computer science. It sustain the gains made in building graduate program by a previous CSEMS grant; supports mathematics and computer science students in the newly formed Honors College; and increases the number of minority individuals employed in the fields of mathematics and computer science. It includes student research experience; participation in departmental colloquia; provides internships for students in banks, hospitals, and industry; and increases the number of well-prepared African American and Hispanic students who successfully compete for admission to graduate programs in mathematics and computer science. The project includes a built in strong support system that enables students to handle the rigors of the program.Intellectual merit: The program continues a successful previous CSEMS project and extends it into new areas with the University Honors Program. Forums for intensive informal interaction between faculty and students are designed to bring out latent talents in students.Broader impact: Graduates of the program are hired in area high schools and colleges, and impart the philosophy of teaching mathematics and the culture of success in the program to their students and colleagues.

该项目每年为全日制本科生和研究生提供20个奖学金，每年3，125美元，为期4年，资助经济困难的有才华的学生，以完成数学和计算机科学方面具有挑战性的课程。它维持了以前的CSEMS补助金在建设研究生课程方面取得的成就;支持新成立的荣誉学院的数学和计算机科学学生;并增加了在数学和计算机科学领域就业的少数民族人数。它包括学生的研究经验;参加部门座谈会;为银行，医院和行业的学生提供实习机会;并增加了成功竞争数学和计算机科学研究生课程的准备充分的非洲裔美国人和西班牙裔学生的数量。该项目包括一个内置的强大的支持系统，使学生能够处理程序的严格性。智力优点：该计划延续了以前成功的CSEMS项目，并将其扩展到新的领域与大学荣誉计划。教师和学生之间的密集非正式互动的论坛旨在发挥学生的潜力。更广泛的影响：该计划的毕业生被雇用在地区高中和大学，并传授数学教学的哲学和成功的文化在该计划给他们的学生和同事。
