This project is providing scholarships to students in the College of Engineering and Applied Sciences that enable the recipients to pursue studies full-time, enhance their educational experience, and enter the workforce in computer science and engineering fields. The College consists of 3 departments: Computer Science, Electrical and Computer Engineering, and Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering. Academic criteria for the scholarships include high GPA, strong letters of reference, and a well-thought out written plan of study. Professional criteria include participation in mentoring or other service activities and student organizations. Students develop leadership skills and career goals.Intellectual Merit: The scholarships enable the best students to concentrate on studies, and reduce the time spent obtaining a degree. Recipients are encouraged to explore creative and original ideas through senior design projects, participation in regional and national contests, independent study credits, and internships. Broader Impact: The project is preparing qualified workers in crucial computer science and engineering areas for local companies. It benefits underrepresented minority, rural, women and disabled students. It enhances the already-close relationship with local industry, leading to improved cooperation in research technology transfer..

该项目正在向工程学和应用科学学院的学生提供奖学金，使接收者能够全日制学习，增强他们的教育经验，并进入计算机科学和工程领域的劳动力。该学院由3个部门组成：计算机科学，电气和计算机工程以及机械和航空工程。 这些奖学金的学术标准包括高GPA，强有力的参考书以及一项经过深思熟虑的书面研究计划。专业标准包括参与指导或其他服务活动和学生组织。学生发展领导能力和职业目标。智能优点：奖学金使最佳学生能够专注于学习，并减少获得学位的时间。鼓励接收者通过高级设计项目，参与区域和国家竞赛，独立的学习学分以及实习机会来探索创意和原创思想。更广泛的影响：该项目正在为当地公司的关键计算机科学和工程领域的合格工人做好准备。它使代表性不足的少数民族，农村，妇女和残疾学生受益。它增强了已经与本地工业的关闭关系，从而改善了研究技术转移的合作。
