Academic and Professional Development for Computer Science, Engineering, and Mathematics Students.

这个项目是亚利桑那州立大学之前和目前成功的CSEMS项目的延续。该项目实施了一项全面的导师驱动的奖学金计划，显著改善了CSEM学科(例如计算机科学、计算机技术、工程、工程技术和数学)的低收入低年级学生的留住、毕业和安置情况。该计划利用了亚利桑那州立大学(ASU)萨姆研究所提供的现有服务。智力优势：被选中的学生参加各种导师指导的活动，旨在确保他们在本科学习中取得成功，并成功地从本科环境过渡到研究生院和/或行业。该计划建立在亚利桑那州立大学萨姆研究所在管理此类计划方面建立的广泛记录基础上。这包括之前的两个CSEMS项目；一个针对新生和低年级学生；另一个针对大三和大四学生。这些项目为项目负责人提供了广泛的知识，这些知识是项目的基础。该项目每年挑选30名低级学生获得CSEMS奖学金。被选中的学生中有20名是即将入学的新生。新生参加夏季桥牌项目，参加微积分课程(8周)或预科微积分课程(5周)。这一过渡计划帮助学生过渡到大学环境。另外十名已被录取的亚利桑那州立大学低年级学生也将被选为CSEMS奖学金获得者。更广泛的影响：随着学生从低年级过渡到高年级，项目主任努力帮助有能力的学生过渡到由教师指导的资助研究项目。

This project is a continuation of a previously and currently successful CSEMS program at Arizona State University. The project implements a comprehensive mentor driven scholarship program that significantly improves the retention, graduation, and placement of low income lower division students majoring in CSEM disciplines; e.g. computer science, computer technology, engineering, engineering technology, and mathematics. The program makes use of existing services made possible by the Arizona State University (ASU) SUMS Institute. Intellectual Merit: Selected students participate in a variety of mentor-supervised activities designed to insure success in their undergraduate studies and successful transition from their undergraduate environment into graduate school and/or industry. The program builds on an extensive track record established by the ASU SUMS Institute in managing such programs. This includes two prior CSEMS programs; one aimed at incoming freshmen and lower division students; the other aimed at juniors and seniors. These programs provide the project directors with extensive knowledge - knowledge that serves as the basis for the program.The program selects a total of 30 lower division students to receive CSEMS scholarships each year. Twenty of the selected students are incoming freshmen. The incoming freshmen participate in a summer bridge program where they enroll in either calculus (8 weeks) or pre-calculus (5 weeks). This bridge program assists the students in their transition to the university environment. An additional ten students, already enrolled, lower division ASU students will also be selected to receive CSEMS scholarships. Broader Impacts: As the students transition from lower division to upper division, efforts are made by the project directors to assist in the transition of capable students to funded faculty-directed research projects.
