Scholarships for Computer Information Systems, Computer Science, and Mathematics Majors

智力优势：慈善学院的这一项目支持（1）招募、筛选和挑选两批15名有才华的经济困难学生，使他们能够全日制学习，以完成学士学位;（2）确保至少95%的参与者被留用，并在完成学位课程方面取得令人满意的进展;（3）提供一系列全面的支持服务，突出CIS，CS和数学专业的研究，专业发展和就业机会，以及毕业后学生的进一步安置;及（4）在资助第四年结束时，使25名项目参与者完成CIS、CS或数学课程，并达到学士学位的要求。更广泛的影响：在慈悲学院CSEMS计划在确保代表性不足的学生有机会参加指导，研究实习机会，结构化的计划和支持服务的综合计划，这将使他们能够少依赖于工作和经验活动，这将为他们准备后学士学位教育或职业机会的重要作用。通过为CSEMS学生特别辅导计划，与提供计算机科学博士学位的研究密集型大学合作实习，以及财政支持，Mercy的CSEMS计划致力于增加在计算机科学和数学领域代表性不足的学生人数，他们在这一领域完成学位课程，并在这些领域接受研究生教育。

Intellectual Merits: This project at Mercy College supports (1) recruitment, screening, and the selection two cohorts of 15 talented, economically disadvantaged students, enabling them to pursue full-time study towards the completion of their bachelor's degree; (2) ensures that at least 95% of participants are retained and make satisfactory progress towards completion of their degree program; (3) provides a comprehensive series of support services that will highlight research, professional development, and employment opportunities for CIS, CS, and Math majors and further placement of students after graduation; and (4) by the end of grant Year 4 enable 25 project participants to complete CIS, CS, or Math coursework and requirements towards a bachelor's degree. Broader impacts: The CSEMS Program at Mercy College plays an important role in ensuring that underrepresented students have the opportunity to participate in a structured program of mentoring, research internship opportunities, and a comprehensive program of support services that will enable them to depend less on work and experience activities that will prepare them for post baccalaureate educational or career opportunities. Through special mentoring programs for CSEMS students, partnerships for internship placements with research-intensive universities that offer doctoral degrees in the computer sciences, as well as financial support, Mercy's CSEMS program works to increase the number of students, underrepresented in the computer science and math fields, who complete degree programs in this area and pursue graduate education in these fields.
