Academic and Professional Development for Engineering and Computer Science Students: From Upper-Division to Research, Graduate School, Academia, and the Skilled STEM Workforce

亚利桑那州立大学的这个项目每年为31名有学术天赋、经济困难的高年级STEM学生提供4000美元的奖学金，尤其是女性和少数族裔。这些奖学金，连同完善的基础设施和以学生为中心的项目，包括导师社区，将使参与者能够全职工作并毕业。该计划旨在帮助确保从高级部门工作成功过渡到研究，研究生院，学术界和熟练的STEM劳动力。该计划建立在11个现有和以前的项目（迄今为止850个奖学金）的基础上，这些项目的保留率为98.3%，超过50%的毕业生将继续攻读全日制研究生院。该项目旨在继续并扩大为不同性别、种族、社会和经济背景的学生提供的服务，明确支持大学为所有学生提供高质量教育的承诺。它还将向学生介绍跨越所有STEM学科的令人兴奋的新研究进展，并鼓励他们获得技术研究生学位。

This Arizona State University program is to provide 31 $4,000 scholarships per year to academically-talented, financially-disadvantaged upper-division STEM students, especially women and underrepresented minorities. These scholarships, together with well-established infrastructure and student-centered programs, including a community-of-mentors, are to enable participants to stay full-time and to graduate. The program is to help ensure successful transition from upper division work to research, graduate school, academia, and the skilled STEM workforce. This program builds on 11 current and prior projects (850 scholarships to date), which have had a retention rate of 98.3% with over 50% of the graduates going on to graduate school full-time. The project is to continue and expand the services available to students of diverse gender, ethnic, social, and economic backgrounds, clearly supporting the university's commitment to provide a high quality education to all students. It is to also introduce students to exciting new research developments spanning all STEM disciplines and encourage them to earn a technical graduate degree.
