This NSF S-STEM program provides scholarships for recruitment and retention of students in the area of electric energy and smart grid applications. The program builds on a nationally leading power engineering education and research program at Washington State University (WSU). This program offers approximately 19 scholarships per year. The objectives are to increase the number of students in power engineering at WSU by 50% for the following groups: Bachelor's, Master's, underrepresented minorities, and women. This program provides opportunities for lower division WSU students, community college students, and four-year university students to study at WSU for Bachelor's and Master's degrees. It builds on existing support structures at WSU to offer opportunities in a bridging program, faculty and industry mentorships, tutors, study groups, internships, field trips, and a hallmark annual poster event. The program is strongly supported by major power companies in Washington that provide industry mentorships and internships opportunities. Undergraduate and graduate students participate in projects supervised by WSU Energy Systems Innovation Center faculty. This project is particularly important for Washington and the Pacific Northwest, where the energy sector has a significant share of the global market.

该NSF S-STEM计划为电能和智能电网应用领域的学生提供奖学金。该计划建立在全国领先的电力工程教育和研究计划在华盛顿州立大学（WSU）。该计划每年提供约19个奖学金。目标是将WSU电力工程学生人数增加50%，用于以下群体：学士，硕士，代表性不足的少数民族和妇女。该计划为低年级WSU学生，社区学院学生和四年制大学学生提供在WSU学习学士和硕士学位的机会。它建立在WSU现有的支持结构的基础上，提供桥梁计划，教师和行业指导，导师，学习小组，实习，实地考察和标志性的年度海报活动的机会。该计划得到了华盛顿主要电力公司的大力支持，这些公司提供行业指导和实习机会。本科生和研究生参加由WSU能源系统创新中心教师监督的项目。 这一项目对华盛顿和太平洋西北地区尤为重要，那里的能源部门在全球市场中占有相当大的份额。
