Delaware State University's DSU-STEM project is integrating seamlessly with the university's NSF-funded HBCU-UP program. The DSU-STEM project is supporting cohorts of 5-6 students for 2 years in each of the first four years of the project. Prior to the start of their freshman year, DSU-STEM Scholars participate in a one week summer training camp that focuses on developing problem solving and analytical reading skills. On campus, each DSU-STEM scholar becomes part of a freshman learning community. This cohort of 5-6 students is lead by a peer mentor trained in intrusive mentoring and a faculty advisor who holds biweekly meetings with the students and the peer mentor. Each entering cohort of DSU-STEM Scholars takes a one-credit-hour professional development class that is team taught by the DSU-STEM staff. The staff also meets monthly with all Scholars for a workshop, career seminar, or scientific talk. In partnership with the Science Resource Center supported by DSU's HBCU-UP and LSAMP projects, the DSU-STEM Scholars receive assistance in applying for funded research internships at DSU or another university.

特拉华州立大学的DSU-STEM项目与该大学的nsf资助的HBCU-UP项目无缝集成。DSU-STEM项目在项目的头四年中，每年支持5-6名学生，为期2年。在大一开始之前，dsu stem学者参加为期一周的暑期训练营，重点是培养解决问题和分析阅读能力。在校园里，每个DSU-STEM学者都成为新生学习社区的一部分。这个由5-6名学生组成的队列由一名接受过侵入式指导培训的同伴导师和一名每两周与学生和同伴导师举行会议的指导老师领导。每个进入DSU-STEM学者的队列需要一个一学分的专业发展课程，由DSU-STEM工作人员团队授课。工作人员还每月与所有学者举行研讨会，职业研讨会或科学讲座。在DSU的HBCU-UP和LSAMP项目支持的科学资源中心的合作伙伴关系中，DSU- stem学者在DSU或其他大学申请资助的研究实习时获得帮助。
