Technology, Electronics Engineering, and Computer and Information Science Scholarships

在这个项目中，学业上有天赋、经济上有困难的学生将获得奖学金，以攻读电子工程技术或计算机和信息科学的本科学位。学生支持活动，如职业咨询和参加东道国行业的外部奖学金，有助于学者的早期专业发展，并增加毕业后在技术部门的就业机会。该项目的学术价值基于既定的、经过测试的和严格的学术课程，与行业领先者的长期合作伙伴关系，以及以个性化教师建议和持续监测学术进展的形式持续的学生/教师合作参与。该项目正在通过传播关于留住学生和取得成功的新战略的经验教训来扩大其影响，例如使用电子期刊来跟踪学生的进步，以及与教师顾问的持续互动。地区人口的多样性也保证了奖学金申请者的多样性。

In this project academically talented, financially disadvantaged students are receiving scholarship support to pursue undergraduate degrees in Electronics Engineering Technology or Computer and Information Science. Student support activities such as career advising and participation in externships in a host industry contribute to early professional development for the scholars and increase job placement opportunities within the technology sector upon graduation. The intellectual merit of the project is grounded in an established, tested, and academically rigorous curriculum, longstanding partnerships with industry leaders, and continuous student/faculty collaborative engagement in the form of individualized faculty advising and continuous monitoring of academic progress. The project is broadening its impact by disseminating lessons learned about new strategies for student retention and success, such as the use of an electronic journal to track student progress, and continuous interaction with faculty advisors. The diversity of the regional population also guarantees a diverse applicant pool for the scholarships.
