This project is increasing the number of local high school students pursuing bachelors degrees in STEM fields. Seven new students in each of the first two years of the project are receiving scholarships for four years, subject to sufficient progress towards an undergraduate STEM degree. S-STEM Scholars enroll in a special First Year Seminar. Seminar instructors utilize relevant Hope College support programs to provide academic and professional development events over the entire four year experience to inform students of opportunities that enable them to successfully prepare for and enter a STEM career. Additionally, S-STEM Scholars serve as role models for other students in the Holland area who may lack the confidence to pursue undergraduate STEM degrees.

该项目正在增加当地高中学生在STEM领域攻读学士学位的人数。在该项目的前两年，每年有七名新生获得四年的奖学金，前提是在本科STEM学位方面取得足够的进展。S-STEM学者参加一个特殊的第一年研讨会。研讨会讲师利用相关的希望学院支持计划，在整个四年的经验提供学术和专业发展活动，告知学生的机会，使他们能够成功地准备和进入STEM职业生涯。此外，S-STEM学者为荷兰地区可能缺乏信心攻读本科STEM学位的其他学生树立了榜样。
