CSEMS Scholarship Program in Computer Science, Engineering, and Mathematics

该项目为有经济需要的有学术天赋的学生提供奖学金，在希望学院学习计算机科学、工程或数学，重点是招生和留住。该项目的目标是增加在希望学院攻读计算机科学、工程或数学专业的学生，特别是少数群体成员和女性的人数；增加这些专业的留学生；并在学生进入希望学院后吸引他们进入这些专业。只要学生符合资格要求，包括继续攻读三个目标学科之一的学位，奖学金将一直持续到学生本科学习的第四年结束。获奖者是在个人面试和对工作进行审查后挑选出来的，基于对学业成功的承诺和奖学金影响候选人职业选择的潜力。复习活动集中在密歇根州西部少数民族入学率较高的高中，通过与这些高中的数学教师联系发起。留任奖学金获得者是从霍普学院计算机科学、工程和数学入门课程的学生中招募的，遴选将基于这些课程的教师的提名。获得CSEMS奖学金的学生将获得密集的教职建议、及时和适当的学术援助、同行指导、职业咨询和教育、实习和研究机会，以及在所有CSEMS学者中建立社区的计划。

This project provides scholarships for academically talented students with financial need to study computer science, engineering, or mathematics at Hope College, focused on recruitment and retention. The objectives of this project are to increase the number of students, especially members of minority groups and women, pursuing majors in computer science, engineering, or mathematics at Hope College; to increase the retention of students in these majors; and to attract students to these majors after they arrive at Hope College. The scholarships continue until the end of the student's fourth year of undergraduate study as long as the student meets eligibility requirements, including continuing progress toward a degree in one of the three target disciplines. Recipients are selected after personal interviews and a review of their work, and are based on the promise for academic success and potential for the scholarship to influence the candidate's career choice.Recruiting activities are focused on high schools in western Michigan with high minority enrollments, and are initiated through contact with mathematics teachers at those high schools. Retention scholarship recipients are recruited from among students enrolled in introductory computer science, engineering, and mathematics courses at Hope College and selection will be based on nominations from the instructors of those courses. Students receiving CSEMS scholarships are supported by intensive faculty advising, timely and appropriate academic assistance, peer mentoring, career counseling and education, internship and research opportunities, and a program for building community among all CSEMS scholars.
