Idaho Engineering Scholarship Program -- Expanded Opportunities

爱达荷州S-STEM项目为两组15名主修计算机科学、材料科学、电气、机械或土木工程的新生提供奖学金。该项目的招聘工作有助于吸引工程和计算机科学领域代表性不足的学生。该项目为住宿学院学生提供奖学金，每年最高可达10,000美元，为期两年；为校外学生提供奖学金，每年最高可达5,000美元，为期两年；此外，在第三和第四学年，两组学生都有机会获得2000美元的额外支持。此外，该计划将奖学金获得者纳入工程住宿学院，新的学习社区，研究经验和其他现有的学生支持计划。该项目努力实现新生保留率80%或更高。

This Idaho S-STEM project is providing scholarships to two cohorts of 15 freshmen students majoring in computer science, materials science, electrical, mechanical, or civil engineering. The recruiting efforts of the program help to attract underrepresented students to engineering and computer science. The program provides scholarship awards of up to $10,000 per year for two years for residential college students and $5,000 per year for two years for off campus students; as well as an opportunity for additional support of $2,000 in years three and four for students in both groups. Additionally, the program integrates scholarship recipients into the Engineering Residential College, new learning communities, research experiences, and other existing student support programs. The program strives to achieve a freshman retention rate of 80% or higher.
