Kearns Science & Math Scholars

拟议项目的目标是为学生提供经济和学术支持，以提高罗切斯特大学科学专业低收入学生的教育成果和保留率。 该项目扩大了目前对低收入学生在科学和数学方面的支持，以改善对教育进步至关重要的三个领域的成果：保留专业申报、随着时间的推移学术进步和学位获得。 学生们正在参加各种活动，例如强化咨询、学习小组会议和入门课程辅导，以及高水平的教师互动。该项目增加了选择科学或数学专业并继续获得目标领域的本科和研究生学位的低收入学生的数量。

The goal of the proposed project is to provide students with both financial and academic support to improve the educational outcomes and retention rates of low-income students in science majors at the University of Rochester. The project expands the support currently available for low-income students in the sciences and math to improve outcomes in three areas critical to educational advancement: retention to major declaration, academic improvement over time, and degree attainment. The students are participating in various activities such as intensive advising, study group sessions and tutoring in gateway courses, and a high level of faculty interaction. The project increases the numbers of low-income students who declare a science or math major and go on to earn undergraduate and graduate degrees in the targeted fields.
