Paschal-Science, Technology, and Mathematics (Paschal-STM) Scholarships

基督教科学、技术和数学(P-STM)奖学金计划通过向四组至少8名表现出学术天赋和经济需求的女性提供奖学金，改善了STEM领域有才华的女性学生的招聘和留住。P-STM项目是在目前CSEMS Paschal奖学金计划和学院目前的STEM招生努力的基础上进行的，在四年内为32名学生提供约96个奖学金，让他们攻读STEM学科之一的学位。智力的优点在于：(A)建立及时的辅导活动，(B)建立数学和科学咖啡馆，以及(C)提高学生对STEM职业选择的认识。该计划的更广泛影响是，作为一所女子学院，梅雷迪思在招收女性进入STEM领域方面处于独特的位置，因为它靠近研究三角公园，它为校园内的初中和高中女生提供许多STEM活动。该学院致力于K-12教师的专业发展，这有助于P-STM学者成为中小学的数学和科学教师。

The Paschal-Science, Technology, and Mathematics (P-STM) Scholarship program improves the recruitment and retention of talented female students in the STEM fields by providing scholarships to four cohorts of at least 8 women who demonstrate both academic talent and financial need. The P-STM project is building upon both the current CSEMS Paschal scholarship program and the college's current STEM recruiting efforts, providing approximately 96 scholarships over four years for 32 students to pursue degrees in one of the STEM disciplines. The intellectual merit is in (a) establishing Just-In-Time Mentoring activities, (b) establishing Math and Science Cafes, and (c) enhancing student awareness of STEM career options. The broader impact of the program is that, as a women's college, Meredith is uniquely situated for recruiting women into STEM fields as it is located near the Research Triangle Park and it offers many STEM activities for middle and high school girls on campus. The college's strong commitment to professional development for K-12 teachers contributes to P-STM scholars becoming mathematics and science teachers in elementary and secondary schools.
