This project provides scholarships for academically talented students with financial need to study computer science, engineering, or mathematics at Hope College, focused on recruitment and retention. The objectives of this project are to increase the number of students, especially members of minority groups and women, pursuing majors in computer science, engineering, or mathematics at Hope College; to increase the retention of students in these majors; and to attract students to these majors after they arrive at Hope College. The scholarships continue until the end of the student's fourth year of undergraduate study as long as the student meets eligibility requirements, including continuing progress toward a degree in one of the three target disciplines. Recipients are selected after personal interviews and a review of their work, and are based on the promise for academic success and potential for the scholarship to influence the candidate's career choice.Recruiting activities are focused on high schools in western Michigan with high minority enrollments, and are initiated through contact with mathematics teachers at those high schools. Retention scholarship recipients are recruited from among students enrolled in introductory computer science, engineering, and mathematics courses at Hope College and selection will be based on nominations from the instructors of those courses. Students receiving CSEMS scholarships are supported by intensive faculty advising, timely and appropriate academic assistance, peer mentoring, career counseling and education, internship and research opportunities, and a program for building community among all CSEMS scholars.

该项目为在霍普学院学习计算机科学，工程或数学的有经济需要的学术天赋的学生提供奖学金，重点是招聘和保留。该项目的目标是增加在霍普学院攻读计算机科学、工程或数学专业的学生人数，特别是少数族裔和妇女；增加这些专业的学生留存率；并吸引学生在来到霍普学院后选择这些专业。只要学生符合资格要求，包括继续攻读三个目标学科之一的学位，奖学金将持续到学生本科学习的第四年结束。获奖者是在个人面试和对他们工作的回顾之后选出的，并且是基于学术成功的承诺和奖学金对候选人职业选择的影响潜力。招聘活动主要集中在密歇根州西部少数民族入学率较高的高中，并通过与这些高中的数学教师联系来启动。留校奖学金获得者是从霍普学院计算机科学、工程和数学入门课程的学生中招募的，并将根据这些课程导师的提名进行选拔。获得CSEMS奖学金的学生将得到密集的教师指导、及时和适当的学术援助、同伴指导、职业咨询和教育、实习和研究机会，以及在所有CSEMS学者之间建立社区的计划的支持。
