Computer Science and Mathematics for Scientists

计算机科学和数学科学家（CSMS）项目提供奖学金，鼓励和帮助主修数学、计算机、生物、物理或地球科学的学生将计算机科学或数学作为他们的第二专业。智力优势：计算数学在科学中的日益广泛的应用为计算机科学或数学方面的科学家提供了需求。该项目有一个有组织的结构，从招聘潜在的受援者，通过教育过程，以安置就业或研究生教育。学生通过大学内外的广告招募。学生是根据经济需要，成功完成的潜力，以及第一专业的分布选择的。针对具体项目的咨询、指导和进度监测为他们提供支持。学生与一个行业联络小组进行互动，该小组将潜在雇主与奖学金获得者直接联系。更广泛的影响：社会对计算机科学和数学技能的需求不断增长。该项目通过超越单一学科的界限，促进在科学研究和应用中使用计算机科学和数学来满足这一需要。该项目还提供了具体计划，以增加计算机科学和数学中代表性不足的群体的人数。通过提供广泛的科学家与计算机科学和数学技能，对这些学科的误解正在减少，从而鼓励更多的学生寻求计算机科学和数学教育自己的雅阁。

The Computer Science and Mathematics for Scientists (CSMS) project is providing scholarships to encourage and enable students who are majoring in mathematical, computer, biological, physical, or geo- science to take computer science or mathematics as their second major.Intellectual Merit: The increasing use of computational mathematics in science provides a demand for scientists trained in computer science or mathematics. The project has an organized structure from recruitment of potential recipients, through the educational process to placement in employment or graduate education. Students are being recruited via advertising outside and within the university. Students are selected based on financial need, potential for successful completion, and distribution of first majors. Project-specific advising, mentoring, and progress monitoring support them. Students interact with an industry liaison group that brings potential employers into direct contact with scholarship recipients.Broader Impacts: There is a developing need in society for computer science and mathematics skills across the sciences. The project addresses that need by going beyond the boundaries of a single discipline, promoting the use of computer science and mathematics in the study and application of science. The project also provides specific plans to increase numbers in underrepresented groups in computer science and mathematics. By providing a broad range scientists with computer science and mathematics skills, misconceptions about these disciplines are being diminished, thus encouraging more students to seek computer science and mathematics education on their own accord.
