项目摘要
This project contributes to the national need for a highly-qualified STEM workforce by helping high-achieving, low-income STEM undergraduates with demonstrated financial need earn a STEM degree at the University of North Dakota. Over its five-year duration, this project will provide one- to four-year scholarships to 31 students pursuing bachelor's degrees engineering, chemistry, biology, or aviation. By reducing or eliminating unmet educational costs, the scholarships can enable the Scholars to spend more time on their studies, as well as engage in experiences such as research projects and internships that are relevant to their long-term career interests. This project aims to create a professional development environment that promotes students' academic and professional success, so that the Scholars graduate with the skills needed to be successful STEM professionals or to obtain advanced STEM degrees. Consequently, the Scholars will be immersed in co-curricular training activities to promote learning and hone problem-solving skills. In addition, scholars will have access to academic support services and workshops with industry representatives or experts in career development. Results of project research and evaluation will contribute to the knowledge base about effective recruitment, retention, and graduation of undergraduate STEM students in rural states.This project addresses the priority of North Dakota and the nation to retain undergraduates in STEM, thus producing scientifically literate citizens who can contribute to the security, technology development, and economic health of the state, the region, and the nation. The outcomes of the project will contribute to the knowledge base about: (1) effective strategies for recruitment and retention of academically talented students from low-income and rural backgrounds to a STEM program at a rural four-year institution; (2) academic and professional development activities that promote student persistence and retention in STEM disciplines; (3) factors influencing STEM-related skill development and self-confidence for students from low-income backgrounds; (4) motivations for this group of students to study STEM; and (5) factors influencing STEM students' decision to pursue non-STEM careers. Many low-income students in North Dakota are of Native American descent, and it is expected that this project will elicit evidence-based strategies for retention and success of this group of students. In addition, this project has the potential to broaden participation of rural students and Native Americans in STEM fields. This project is funded by the NSF Scholarships in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics program, which seeks to increase the number of low-income academically talented students with demonstrated financial need who earn degrees in STEM fields. It also aims to improve the education of future scientists, engineers, and technicians, and to generate knowledge about academic success, retention, transfer, graduation, and academic/career pathways of low-income students.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
该项目通过帮助成绩优异、有经济需要的低收入 STEM 本科生在北达科他大学获得 STEM 学位,满足国家对高素质 STEM 劳动力的需求。 该项目为期五年,将为 31 名攻读工程、化学、生物学或航空学士学位的学生提供一到四年的奖学金。通过减少或消除未满足的教育成本,奖学金可以使学者们花更多的时间在学习上,并参与与他们的长期职业兴趣相关的研究项目和实习等经验。该项目旨在创造一个促进学生学术和职业成功的专业发展环境,以便学者毕业时具备成为成功的 STEM 专业人士或获得高级 STEM 学位所需的技能。因此,学者们将沉浸在课外培训活动中,以促进学习并磨练解决问题的技能。此外,学者们还将获得学术支持服务以及由行业代表或职业发展专家举办的研讨会。 项目研究和评估的结果将有助于建立关于农村各州本科 STEM 学生有效招收、保留和毕业的知识库。该项目解决了北达科他州和国家保留 STEM 本科生的优先事项,从而培养具有科学素养的公民,为州、地区和国家的安全、技术发展和经济健康做出贡献。 该项目的成果将有助于建立以下方面的知识库:(1) 招募和留住来自低收入和农村背景的学术优秀学生参加农村四年制院校 STEM 项目的有效策略; (2) 促进学生坚持和保留 STEM 学科的学术和专业发展活动; (3) 影响低收入家庭学生STEM相关技能发展和自信心的因素; (4)该群体学生学习STEM的动机; (5)影响STEM学生决定追求非STEM职业的因素。北达科他州的许多低收入学生都是美洲原住民后裔,预计该项目将为这群学生的保留和成功提供基于证据的策略。 此外,该项目还有可能扩大农村学生和美国原住民对 STEM 领域的参与。 该项目由 NSF 科学、技术、工程和数学奖学金项目资助,该项目旨在增加具有经济需求且获得 STEM 领域学位的低收入学术才华学生的数量。它还旨在改善未来科学家、工程师和技术人员的教育,并产生有关低收入学生的学业成功、保留、转学、毕业和学术/职业道路的知识。该奖项反映了 NSF 的法定使命,并通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估,被认为值得支持。
