项目摘要

Through its "Mathematics, Science and Engineering Transfer Scholarships (M-SETS)" program, Cañada College, a member of the California Community College System and one of three colleges in the San Mateo Community College District, is providing scholarship awards to academically talented, financially needy students working to transfer to a 4-year university to complete an undergraduate degree in an engineering, mathematics or science major. M-SETS awards are offered for up to three years of full-time academic study at Cañada College and in the first semester that a student transfers to a 4-year university. M-SETS is an exceptional opportunity for low-income students to focus full-time on their studies. Mathematics, science and engineering faculty are mentors to students with the goal of increasing student self-efficacy in mathematics and science, furthering their success at Cañada College, and preparing them for work in mathematics, science and engineering professions. In addition, M-SETS recipients benefit from a support system provided through Cañada College's Math, Engineering & Science Achievement (MESA) program which offers academic and extracurricular support in numerous ways, such as: a) Academic Excellence Workshops and study groups to support students who are clustered in core mathematics, science and engineering courses so that they can excel academically, learn to study in a group and develop relationships based on common academic goals. b) A MESA Study Center which provides a place for students to study as well as being a focus area for MESA workshops, on-campus seminars and STEM-related student clubs. c) A MESA Student Lounge which serves as a center of social activities and student-faculty interaction outside the classroom. d) A MESA tutoring program which provides tutors for core mathematics, engineering and science courses and the College's Tutorial Center which offers tutors for other subject areas. e) A MESA Counselor, with specific expertise focused on STEM majors, who provides academic advising and develops an individual education plan for each student given their major and the 4-year universities where they intend to transfer. f) Transfer Agreement Guarantees with nearly every university in California which enables MESA students to gain early guaranteed admission to a 4-year university during the fall of their final year at Cañada College. g) Field trips to industry and MESA panels featuring scientists, doctors and engineers to help students clarify their academic and career goals. h) Visits to 4-year universities which provide students the opportunities to evaluate campuses and to make connections to people and programs. i) Student leadership retreats, professional conferences and participation as student members in professional societies which build students' leadership skills and motivation while developing relationships with other students and industry professionals.

通过其“数学，科学和工程转移奖学金（M-SETS）”计划，卡尼亚达学院，加州社区学院系统的成员和三个学院之一，在圣马特奥社区学院区，是提供奖学金奖励学术才华，经济困难的学生工作转移到一个4年制大学完成本科学位的工程，数学或科学专业。 M-SETS奖学金适用于在Cañada College进行长达三年的全日制学术学习，以及学生转入4年制大学的第一学期。M-SETS是低收入学生专注于全日制学习的绝佳机会。数学，科学和工程教师是学生的导师，旨在提高学生在数学和科学方面的自我效能，促进他们在Cañada学院的成功，并为他们在数学，科学和工程专业的工作做好准备。此外，M-SETS受助人受益于通过Cañada College的数学，工程科学成就（梅萨）计划提供的支持系统，该计划以多种方式提供学术和课外支持，例如： a）学术卓越研讨会和学习小组，以支持集中在核心数学，科学和工程课程的学生，使他们能够在学术上出类拔萃，学会在一个小组中学习，并根据共同的学术目标发展关系。 B）一个梅萨学习中心，为学生提供学习的场所，也是梅萨研讨会、校园研讨会和STEM相关学生俱乐部的重点区域。 c）梅萨学生休息室，作为课堂外社交活动和师生互动的中心。（d）梅萨辅导计划，为核心数学、工程和科学课程提供辅导，学院的教育中心为其他学科领域提供辅导。 e）梅萨辅导员，具有专注于STEM专业的特定专业知识，提供学术咨询，并根据每个学生的专业和他们打算转学的4年制大学为每个学生制定个人教育计划。 f）与加州几乎每一所大学的转学协议保证，使梅萨学生能够在Cañada学院最后一年的秋季获得4年制大学的早期保证录取。 g）实地考察行业和梅萨小组，以科学家，医生和工程师为特色，帮助学生澄清他们的学术和职业目标。 h）访问四年制大学，为学生提供评估校园并与人和项目建立联系的机会。 i）学生领导务虚会，专业会议和参与作为学生成员在专业社团建立学生的领导技能和动机，同时发展与其他学生和行业专业人士的关系。
