Scholarship Program in Science and Mathematics at Kennesaw State University

该项目为计算机科学、数学、化学和生物专业的有学术天赋和经济困难的本科生提供奖学金。奖学金获得者通过一个管理结构得到支持，该结构包括来自每个参与学科的教师。正在通过学术/学生支助服务、充实活动以及该机构的财政援助和就业服务提供额外的支助。学术充实活动包括发展未来STEM学者的跨学科学习社区队列，学者可选择参加研究项目和REU计划，实习，以及参加研究会议。这一项目的更广泛影响通过来自代表人数不足或第一代低收入群体的学者群体的跨学科性质以及该机构非传统学生群体的参与而感受到。

This project is providing scholarships to academically talented and financially disadvantaged undergraduate students in computer science, mathematics, chemistry, and biology. Scholarship recipients are being supported through a management structure that includes faculty from each of the participating disciplines. Additional support is being provided through academic/student support services, enrichment activities as well as the institution's financial aid and career services. Academic enrichment activities include development of interdisciplinary learning community cohorts of incoming STEM scholars, optional participation of scholars in research projects and REU program, internships, and travel to research conferences. The broader impacts of this project are felt through the interdisciplinary nature of the cohorts of scholars that come from underrepresented or first generation low income groups as well as participation of the institution's non-traditional student population.
