The Connecticut College NSF Math and Computer Science Scholarship Program has three primary objectives: to enhance both the quantity and quality of students entering our existing math and computer science program, especially those from underrepresented minorities such as women and students of color; to increase retention of students who are enrolled in the math and computer science programs through extensive support services and through programs which increase the knowledge and skills of the students; and to expand the number of high school students considering math and computer science as career options by encouraging the scholarship students to become leaders and role models.The scholarship program specifically targets high school students, especially women and ethnic and racial minorities, with an interest in or an aptitude for math and computer science. Students in this program are mentored by faculty advisors in their field and by alumni or others in the local community with related careers. The students obtain applied skills through participation in internships, independent studies, and math practicums. In addition, they present results of their work at conferences, open houses, and to others outside the department. They learn leadership and teaching skills through work-study appointments in the Math and Computer Science Help Centers or in Information Services, as well as from the experience of mentoring incoming students. Finally, students in this program are guided toward appropriate job placement or graduate school by career counselors.

康涅狄格学院 NSF 数学和计算机科学奖学金计划有三个主要目标： 提高进入我们现有数学和计算机科学项目的学生的数量和质量，特别是那些来自女性和有色人种学生等代表性不足的少数群体的学生；通过广泛的支持服务和提高学生知识和技能的计划，提高就读数学和计算机科学课程的学生的保留率；通过鼓励奖学金学生成为领导者和榜样，扩大考虑数学和计算机科学作为职业选择的高中生数量。该奖学金计划专门针对高中生，特别是女性和少数民族，他们对以下领域感兴趣或数学和计算机科学方面的能力。该项目的学生受到各自领域的教师顾问以及校友或当地社区从事相关职业的其他人的指导。学生通过参加实习、独立学习和数学实习来获得应用技能。此外，他们还在会议、开放日以及向部门外的其他人展示他们的工作成果。他们通过数学和计算机科学帮助中心或信息服务的勤工俭学以及指导新生的经验来学习领导力和教学技能。最后，该项目的学生将在职业顾问的指导下找到合适的工作或进入研究生院。
