中文摘要
该项目为STEM学科中有学术天赋、经济困难的学生提供奖学金。该项目包括一个支持计划,旨在与指导学生帮助留住他们直到毕业的教师导师进行广泛接触。这一项目的招生重点是那些在STEM领域参与人数不足的学生。平均每年颁发37个奖学金,其中包括11个新的奖学金给计算机科学、工程、工程技术、数学和物理学科的新生。这些奖学金每年提供3500美元,可以续期到毕业。在教师导师的指导下,学者们参加各种教育强化活动,如职业跟踪和其他正在进行的社区建设活动。在他们项目的第一个学期,学者们每周会见他们的导师一次,持续三周,然后在剩下的奖学金期间每两周会见一次。该项目还为学者们提供了与工商界成员互动的机会。
英文摘要
This project provides scholarships for academically talented, financially needy students in STEM disciplines. The project includes a support program designed to provide extensive contact with faculty mentors who guide the students to help retain them until graduation. Recruitment to this program focuses on students from groups that are underrepresented in their participation in STEM areas. An average of 37 scholarships are being awarded each year, incuding 11 new scholarships to incoming freshmen in the Computer Science, Engineering, Engineering Technology, Mathematics, and Physics disciplines. The scholarships provide $3,500 per year and are renewable until graduation. Under the direction of their faculty mentors, scholars attend a variety of Educational Enhancement Activities such as job shadowing and other on-going community building activities. During the first semester of their program, the scholars meet with their mentor once a week for three weeks and then once every two weeks for the remainder of the scholarship period. The progam also gives the scholars the chance to interact with members of the business and industrial community.
