中文摘要
麻省湾社区学院(massachusetts bay Community College)的麻省湾科学、技术、工程和数学奖学金(MSTEM)项目支持10名全日制、即将升入大二的STEM学生,这些学生在大一时的科学和累积GPA成绩保持在3.25;具有较强的研究和/或工程技能;表现出对科学和/或工程的热情,并致力于行业职业生涯和/或学士学位;还有经济需求。MSTEM奖学金获得者将获得涵盖学杂费和书本费的奖学金;职业指导和学术衔接讲习班;获得与STEM兴趣相关的暑期研究实习机会;以及在他们经历了MSTEM之后持续的密集和持续的指导。该项目包括一个高度可复制的全国性模式,增加了在STEM学术界和职业中代表性不足的非传统学者的参与。MSTEM采用经过验证的基于项目的学习模式,让学者参与真实的研究,并建立在已建立的指导和保留流程的基础上,以扩大非传统个人进入美国技术劳动力的管道的方式,培养和维持非传统本科生学者进入STEM职业。MSTEM的一个主要组成部分是它与工业界、学院和大学之间的合作伙伴关系,这些合作伙伴关系汇聚在一起,以确保学者的成功。
英文摘要
The MassBay Scholarship for Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (MSTEM) program at MassBay Community College supports ten full-time, rising sophomore STEM scholars that as freshmen maintained a 3.25 science and cumulative GPA; exhibited strong research and/or engineering skills; demonstrated a passion for science and/or engineering and a commitment to an industry career and/or baccalaureate STEM degree; as well as financial need. MSTEM Scholars are receiving scholarships covering tuition, fees and books; Career Mentoring and Academic Bridging Workshops; opportunities to secure a summer research internship relevant to their STEM interest; and intensive and continuous mentoring that persists after their MSTEM experience. This program includes a highly replicable, national model that increases participation by nontraditional scholars who are underrepresented in STEM academia and careers. MSTEM uses a proven project-based learning model that engages scholars in authentic research and builds upon established mentoring and retention processes that foster and sustain nontraditional undergraduate scholars into STEM careers in ways that expand the pipeline of nontraditional individuals into the American technology workforce. A major component of the MSTEM is its partnerships between industry, colleges and universities that converge to assure the success of scholars.
