The goal of this project is to increase the number of highly qualified and capable students who are able to complete degrees in STEM majors by providing approximately 20 need-based scholarships at Bowling Green State University, Owens Community College, and Terra Community College. A variety of student support programs are designed, such as a 5-week summer bridge for entering students to prepare them for the rigors of college science and math courses; a tiered system of mentoring by peers and faculty; learning communities with monthly events that draw students and faculty together by merging academics and social networking; undergraduate research; and support and promotion of graduate and professional studies after completion of a baccalaureate degree. This project increases the graduation rate in mathematics and science of economically disadvantaged students and of under-represented women and ethnic minority students.

该项目的目标是通过在州立鲍灵格林大学、欧文斯社区学院和泰拉社区学院提供大约20个基于需求的奖学金，增加能够完成STEM专业学位的高素质和有能力的学生的数量。学校还设计了各种各样的学生支持项目，比如为新生提供为期5周的夏季桥梁课程，帮助他们为大学科学和数学课程的严格要求做好准备；由同辈和教员指导的分层体系；每月举办活动的学习社区，通过整合学术和社交网络，将学生和教师聚集在一起；本科研究;并支持和促进完成学士学位后的研究生和专业学习。该项目提高了经济条件不利的学生以及代表性不足的妇女和少数民族学生的数学和科学毕业率。
