ENG^2 Scholars for Success

工程学跨学科(99)这个项目将招聘、保留和职业安置融合到一个综合的、非侵入性的计划中，以促进STEM学生的成功。它开发了一个队列小组，利用最近授予的STEP补助金开发的现有项目，包括指导、夏季工程前过渡计划、教师发展和新生迎新课程。其他活动包括暑期就业安置计划和以职业为导向的系列研讨会。该系列研讨会的嘉宾包括学院的成功毕业生，他们是S-STEM学生的榜样，以及计算机技能工作坊，他们在完成学业后获得证书。目标人群是经济困难的妇女和在工程学院就读的代表人数不足的少数族裔。该项目正在通过学生自我评估、学生和雇主的暑期职业经历评估以及咨询小组审查进行评估。

Engineering Interdisciplinary (99)This project is blending recruitment, retention and career placement into an integrative, non intrusive program to promote STEM student success. It develops a cohort group that utilizes existing programs developed under a recently awarded STEP grant, including mentoring, a summer pre-engineering transition program, faculty development, and a freshman orientation course. Additional activities include a summer job placement program and a career oriented seminar series. The seminar series is featuring successful graduates of the institution who are serving as role models for the S-STEM students as well as workshops in computer skills resulting in a certificate upon completion. The target population is financially needy women and under-represented minorities enrolled in the college of engineering. The program is being assessed through evaluation of student self-assessments, evaluating summer professional experiences by both students and employers, and advisory panel reviews.
