The Colorado School of Mines (CSM) is dedicated to the belief that women and minorities can make unique and substantial contributions to science related fields. A broad range of programs, such as the Women in Science, Engineering and Mathematics program (WISEM) and the Minority Engineering program (MEP), are dedicated to improving the retention and advancement of women and minorities at CSM. This project provides financial assistance for economically burdened female and minority students who are attending the Colorado School of Mines. It is our belief that by combining the high quality programs that are already offered for the retention of women and minorities with appropriate financial support, the female and minority population at CSM will continue to increase. Additionally, the project contains a strong research and mentoring component. The mentoring component is designed to provide the scholarship recipients with the guidance and encouragement necessary to complete their degrees while the research component is designed to further excite the participants' interest in science related fields.

科罗拉多矿业学院 (CSM) 坚信女性和少数族裔可以为科学相关领域做出独特而实质性的贡献。科学、工程和数学领域的女性计划 (WISEM) 和少数族裔工程计划 (MEP) 等一系列广泛的计划致力于提高 CSM 中女性和少数族裔的保留率和晋升率。该项目为在科罗拉多矿业学院就读的经济负担重的女性和少数族裔学生提供经济援助。我们相信，通过将已经提供的用于留住妇女和少数族裔的高质量计划与适当的财政支持相结合，CSM 的女性和少数族裔人口将继续增加。此外，该项目还包含强大的研究和指导部分。指导部分旨在为奖学金获得者提供完成学位所需的指导和鼓励，而研究部分旨在进一步激发参与者对科学相关领域的兴趣。
