The University of Texas at Dallas's (UTD) Computer Science Department, in concert with this CSEMS scholarship effort, is helping to train software engineers to fulfill national needs for the high technology workforce. To attract and retain academically talented and financially needy students, especially from underrepresented groups who are interested in Software Engineering (SE), this project awards 35 scholarships for the BS Degree in Software Engineering at UTD. Of the 35 scholarships, 28 are from the NSF CSEMS program while UTD is providing support for 7 through internal funds. The project recruits talented and financially needy students into the SE program and produces well-trained software professionals, who can join the industrial workforce and/or proceed to higher degrees in SE. A joint effort including the Collin County and Dallas County Community College Districts, is engaging in an aggressive recruitment effort in underrepresented groups and community colleges. A rigorously defined selection and retention process is being implemented, providing a full range of supporting services, creating more opportunities for industrial internship, and applying systematic assessment and evaluation procedures. Scholarship recipients are closely supervised throughout their program of study by faculty mentors. They are involved in large software projects as well as being required to participate in the UTD CS Department's well-established Industrial Practice Program to enrich their educational experience.

德克萨斯大学达拉斯分校（UTD）计算机科学系与CSEMS奖学金合作，正在帮助培训软件工程师，以满足国家对高科技劳动力的需求。 为了吸引和留住有学术才能和经济困难的学生，特别是来自对软件工程（SE）感兴趣的代表性不足的群体，该项目为UTD的软件工程学士学位颁发了35个奖学金。在35个奖学金中，28个来自NSF CSEMS计划，而UTD通过内部资金为7个提供支持。 该项目招募有才华和经济困难的学生进入SE计划，并产生训练有素的软件专业人员，谁可以加入工业劳动力和/或继续在SE更高的学位。包括柯林县和达拉斯县社区学院区在内的联合努力，正在代表性不足的群体和社区学院进行积极的招聘工作。 目前正在实施严格界定的甄选和留用程序，提供全方位的支助服务，创造更多的工业实习机会，并采用系统的评估和评价程序。 奖学金获得者在整个学习计划中受到教师导师的密切监督。他们参与大型软件项目，并被要求参加UTD CS部门完善的工业实践计划，以丰富他们的教育经验。
