Computer Science, Engineering, and Mathematics Scholarships Program (CSEMS)

康涅狄格学院NSF数学和计算机科学奖学金计划有三个主要目标：提高进入我们现有数学和计算机科学课程的学生的数量和质量，特别是那些来自代表性不足的少数民族，如妇女和有色人种的学生;通过广泛的支持服务和提高学生的数学和计算机科学课程的保留，该奖学金计划的主要目标是培养学生的数学知识和技能;通过鼓励获得奖学金的学生成为领导者和榜样，扩大将数学和计算机科学作为职业选择的高中生人数。该奖学金计划专门针对对数学和计算机科学感兴趣或有能力的高中生，特别是女性和少数民族和种族。该计划的学生由各自领域的教师顾问以及当地社区的校友或其他相关职业指导。学生通过参加实习，独立学习和数学实习获得应用技能。此外，他们还在会议、开放日和部门外的其他人面前展示他们的工作成果。他们通过在数学和计算机科学帮助中心或信息服务部门的工作学习任命，以及指导新生的经验，学习领导和教学技能。最后，学生在这个程序是指导适当的就业安置或研究生院的职业顾问。

The Connecticut College NSF Math and Computer Science Scholarship Program has three primary objectives: to enhance both the quantity and quality of students entering our existing math and computer science program, especially those from underrepresented minorities such as women and students of color; to increase retention of students who are enrolled in the math and computer science programs through extensive support services and through programs which increase the knowledge and skills of the students; and to expand the number of high school students considering math and computer science as career options by encouraging the scholarship students to become leaders and role models.The scholarship program specifically targets high school students, especially women and ethnic and racial minorities, with an interest in or an aptitude for math and computer science. Students in this program are mentored by faculty advisors in their field and by alumni or others in the local community with related careers. The students obtain applied skills through participation in internships, independent studies, and math practicums. In addition, they present results of their work at conferences, open houses, and to others outside the department. They learn leadership and teaching skills through work-study appointments in the Math and Computer Science Help Centers or in Information Services, as well as from the experience of mentoring incoming students. Finally, students in this program are guided toward appropriate job placement or graduate school by career counselors.
