Opportunities: Scholarships and Integrated Support for Mathematics, Engineering, Computer Science and Computer Networking and Telecommunications Scholars

该项目将在四年内每年向注册计算机科学、计算机网络、电信、工程或数学转移计划的学生颁发28个奖学金，并/或进入劳动力大军。该项目正在创建一个连贯的学习社区，将跨学科的学习整合在一起，提供CSEMS各学科之间的联系，并通过提供一条通往CSEMS学科内其他机会的途径来留住学生。教师顾问和导师正在提供持续的学术和职业指导；寻找实地经验、会议和实习的机会；并将CSEMS项目服务与Trio和同时招生计划相结合。该项目的目标是女性和代表不足的少数族裔，他们几乎占其服务范围内K-12学生的一半。一个为期两个学分的研讨会正在提供，以加强与企业的互动，培养跨学科的意识，并提供实地考察和跟踪工作的机会。二年级的学者正在接受培训，成为一年级学生的导师。支助服务正在与CSEMS活动相结合。包括数学和科学俱乐部，儿童保育补贴，确定实习机会，基于能力的教育/学分计划，以及职业安置系统。

The project is awarding twenty-eight scholarships per year for four years to students enrolled in a computer science, computer networking, telecommunications, engineering or mathematics transfer program, and/or to enter the workforce.The project is creating a coherent learning community that integrates learning across disciplines to provide a connectedness between CSEMS disciplines and to create a method to retain students by providing a pathway to other opportunities within the CSEMS disciplines. Faculty advisors and mentors are providing continuous academic and career guidance; identifying opportunities for field experience, conferences, and internships; and integrating CSEMS project services with TRIO and Concurrent Enrollment Programs. The project is targeting women and underrepresented minorities, who make up almost half of the K-12 students within their service area.A two-credit seminar is being provided to improve interaction with business, foster awareness across disciplines, and to provide opportunities for site visits and job shadowing. Second year scholars are being trained to serve as mentors to first year scholars. Support services are being integrated with CSEMS activities. Included are math and science clubs, child-care subsidies, identification of internship opportunities, a competency-based Education/Credit program, and a career placement system.
