Undergraduate/Graduate Student Immersion in Computer Science, Technology and Mathematics

奖学金是为有学术天赋/经济困难的学生提供的，帮助他们在完成计算机科学、技术、工程或数学（CSTEM）的学士学位或研究生学位后进入劳动力市场。建立亲缘关系组是为了帮助受助人完成面向项目的学位要求。受助人来自合作高中、社区学院和大学在校生。每学期资助本科生至少12人，研究生至少4人。智力优势：所有大学奖学金获得者都必须参加大学的获奖学者学院（SA）和一个亲和小组（AG），该小组由一名教员与三名本科生和一名研究生组成。将社区大学转学整合到AG中可以帮助这些学生在大学的课程中取得成功。作为学者学院的成员，学生在夏季/学年期间参加提供教学丰富机会的项目，如研究项目；同侪教导;协作学习社区中心，这种大学文化在城市通勤学院中并不常见；特别建议/指导；GRE准备;以及职业指导和就业安排。更广泛的影响：随着发现和理解的推进，活动扩大了传统上代表性不足的少数民族、妇女和残疾人对STEM领域的参与，同时强调教学、培训和学习。该计划提供综合研究和教育活动，作为国家复制模式。

Scholarships are being provided for academically talented/ financially needy students to enter the workforce following completion of a baccalaureate or graduate degree in computer science, technology, engineering or mathematics (CSTEM). Affinity Groups are created to assist recipients in completing project oriented degree requirements. Recipients are being recruited from partnering high schools, community colleges, and current students at the university. At least 12 undergraduate and 4 graduate students per semester are being supported.Intellectual Merit: All college scholarship recipients are required to participate in the award winning Scholars Academy (SA) at the university and an Affinity Group (AG), which consists of a faculty member paired with three undergraduates and one graduate student. Integrating community college transfers into an AG helps prepares these students to succeed in programs at the university. As members of the Scholars Academy, students participate in programs that provide instructional enrichment opportunities such as research projects during summer / academic year; peer tutoring; a Collaborative Learning Community Center, a college culture not usually found in urban commuter colleges; special advisement /mentoring; GRE preparation; and career guidance and placement. Broader Impacts: Activities broaden participation in STEM fields for traditionally underrepresented minorities, women, and persons with disabilities as discovery and understanding are advanced while emphasizing teaching, training and learning. The program provides integrated research and education activities, serving as national model for replication.
