德克萨斯大学奥斯汀分校的EVS学者项目招收有学术天赋但经济困难的新生参加其创新的跨学科学位课程,最终获得环境科学学士学位。该项目分设于该大学的三个不同学院,要求严格,为毕业生在环境领域迅速发展的劳动力市场中继续深造或就业做好准备。学者们被分成小组,并提供个性化的学术支持、多方面的指导和专业准备。目标是吸引和留住学者,让他们养成跨学科批判性思维的习惯,研究和现场技能,以及为解决环境问题做出贡献的动力。在现有学者的帮助下,申请人被积极招募,被选为学者的人被精心培养。由于德克萨斯大学的学生人口中有17%是西班牙裔,EVS学者将为目前缺乏多样性的STEM领域做出贡献。
英文摘要
The EVS Scholars program at the University of Texas at Austin recruits academically talented but financially needy entering freshmen to its innovative and interdisciplinary degree program leading to a Bachelor of Science in Environmental Science. Housed in three different colleges at the university, the program is demanding and rigorous, and prepares its graduates for further education or employment in the burgeoning workforce in environmental areas. Scholars are grouped in small cohorts and offered individualized academic support, multifaceted mentoring, and professional preparation. The goal is to attract and retain Scholars, allowing them to develop habits of interdisciplinary critical thinking, research and field skills, and motivation to contribute to solving environmental problems. With the help of current Scholars, applicants are aggressively recruited and those chosen as scholars are carefully nurtured. Since the student population at the University of Texas is 17% Hispanic, EVS Scholars will contribute diversity to a STEM area that currently lacks it.
