中文摘要
该项目为STEM学科中有学术天赋、经济困难的学生提供奖学金。该项目包括一个支持计划,旨在提供与指导学生的教师导师的广泛联系,以帮助他们留住他们直到毕业。该项目的招聘重点是来自STEM领域中代表性不足的群体的学生。每年平均颁发37个奖学金,其中包括11个新的计算机科学、工程、工程技术、数学和物理学科新生奖学金。奖学金每年提供3500美元,可续期至毕业。在导师的指导下,学者们参加了各种各样的教育促进活动,如工作见习和其他正在进行的社区建设活动。在项目的第一学期,学生每周与导师会面一次,为期三周,然后在奖学金期限的剩余时间内每两周会面一次。该项目还为学者们提供了与商界和工业界成员互动的机会。
英文摘要
This project provides scholarships for academically talented, financially needy students in STEM disciplines. The project includes a support program designed to provide extensive contact with faculty mentors who guide the students to help retain them until graduation. Recruitment to this program focuses on students from groups that are underrepresented in their participation in STEM areas. An average of 37 scholarships are being awarded each year, incuding 11 new scholarships to incoming freshmen in the Computer Science, Engineering, Engineering Technology, Mathematics, and Physics disciplines. The scholarships provide $3,500 per year and are renewable until graduation. Under the direction of their faculty mentors, scholars attend a variety of Educational Enhancement Activities such as job shadowing and other on-going community building activities. During the first semester of their program, the scholars meet with their mentor once a week for three weeks and then once every two weeks for the remainder of the scholarship period. The progam also gives the scholars the chance to interact with members of the business and industrial community.
