Graduating ENgineers In the US: GENIUS Scholarship Program

天才奖学金计划为即将入学的有学术天赋的工程一年级学生提供为期两年的奖学金支持，这些学生的经济需求尚未得到满足。根据未得到满足的学生的个人经济需求，奖学金的金额从4000美元到1万美元不等。总体而言，天才奖学金计划在五年内支持3组12名学生，总共36名学生。该奖学金计划支持工程学院、建筑学院和计算机科学学院任一学科系的学生。该计划提供了一套“最佳实践”，以有效地解决来自代表性不足群体的学生面临的重大问题，例如：1)有效的学术融入校园；2)有效的社会融入校园；3)适当的经济支持；以及4)对工程的幻想破灭。

The GENIUS Scholarship Program provides scholarship support for incoming academically talented freshman engineering students with unmet financial need for a duration of 2 years. The scholarship awards range from $4,000 to $10,000 based on individual unmet student financial need. In totality, the GENIUS Scholarship program supports 3 cohorts of 12 students for a total of 36 students over a five year period. The scholarship program supports students majoring in any of the discipline departments that comprise the College of Engineering, Architecture, and Computer Science. This program offers a suite of "best practices" to effectively address significant issues facing students from underrepresented groups such as: 1) Effective academic integration into the campus; 2) Effective social integration into the campus; 3) Appropriate financial support; and 4) Disillusionment with engineering.
