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.

MassBay 社区学院的 MassBay 科学、技术、工程和数学奖学金 (MSTEM) 项目为 10 名全日制、即将升入大二的 STEM 学者提供支持，这些学者在新生时保持着 3.25 的科学和累积 GPA；表现出强大的研究和/或工程技能；表现出对科学和/或工程的热情以及对行业职业和/或 STEM 学士学位的承诺；以及财务需要。 MSTEM 学者获得的奖学金涵盖学费、杂费和书本费；职业指导和学术桥梁研讨会；获得与其 STEM 兴趣相关的暑期研究实习机会；以及在他们获得 MSTEM 经验后持续进行的密集和持续的指导。该计划包括一个高度可复制的国家模式，可增加在 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，并建立在既定的指导和保留流程的基础上，培养和维持非传统本科学者进入 STEM 职业，从而扩大非传统个人进入美国技术劳动力的渠道。 MSTEM 的一个主要组成部分是行业、学院和大学之间的合作伙伴关系，这些合作伙伴关系共同确保学者的成功。
