This project is providing fifteen S-STEM fellowships annually to academically talented, but economically and/or educationally disadvantaged students during their initial year of study. Mentoring and additional student support activities are provided within the framework of the institution's Honors Program that engages students by focusing on current and emerging problems of society. Through a problem solving approach, students are learning to apply knowledge from their major field of study to complex interdisciplinary settings. Recruitment efforts include particular attention to attracting high ability members of underrepresented groups into science and engineering. The institution has signaled its commitment to this project by allocating funds to continue the first year fellowship support during each student's last three years of study.

该项目每年提供15个S-STEM奖学金，用于在第一年学习期间有学术天赋，但经济和/或教育上处于劣势的学生。在该机构的荣誉计划框架内提供指导和额外的学生支持活动，该计划通过关注当前和新出现的社会问题来吸引学生。通过解决问题的方法，学生们正在学习将专业领域的知识应用到复杂的跨学科环境中。招聘工作包括特别注意吸引代表性不足群体的高能力成员进入科学和工程领域。该机构通过分配资金在每个学生的最后三年学习期间继续提供第一年的奖学金支持来表明其对该项目的承诺。
