Mathematics, Science and Computing S-STEM Project

S-STEM项目为数学、科学和计算机领域有学术天赋和经济困难的学生提供奖学金。该项目以以往cems项目的经验为基础，提供了一个培养高素质学者的学习环境，这些学者将为21世纪的工作场所做出贡献。该项目积极招募地区高中、专科大学和大学的学者。此外，该项目还为参与的社区学院和大学之间的学者提供桥梁项目。该项目通过小册子、海报、网站以及与地区高中的数学和科学教师会面来宣传奖学金。招收的学生有很高的经济需求，包括很大比例的代表性不足的群体。由大学和社区学院的教师组成的咨询委员会每学期从目标学科中选出学者，并担任学者的顾问。该项目通过要求学者参与量身定制的学习社区和每年一小时的项目课程在学者之间建立社区，在该课程中，学者们为一家模拟公司工作，生产可销售的产品。实地考察和演讲为学者们提供了接触行业专业人士的机会。

This S-STEM project supports scholarships for academically talented and financially needy students in mathematics, sciences and computing. This project builds on lessons learned from a previous CSEMS project to provide a learning environment producing highly qualified scholars who will contribute to a 21st century workplace. This project aggressively recruits scholars from area high schools, two-year colleges, and universities. In addition, the project supports a bridge program for scholars between the participating community colleges and the university. The project advertises the scholarships through brochures, posters, a website, and meetings with math and science teachers in regional high schools. The recruited student population has high financial need and includes a large percentage of underrepresented groups. An Advisory Committee of university and community college faculty from targeted disciplines selects the scholars each semester and serves as advisors for the scholars. The project creates community among the scholars through required participation in a tailored learning community and in a yearly one-hour project course where the scholars work for a mock company to produce a marketable product. Fields trips and speakers provide the scholars with exposure to industry professionals.
