The project is awarding twenty-eight scholarships per year for four years to students enrolled in a computer science, computer networking, telecommunications, engineering or mathematics transfer program, and/or to enter the workforce.The project is creating a coherent learning community that integrates learning across disciplines to provide a connectedness between CSEMS disciplines and to create a method to retain students by providing a pathway to other opportunities within the CSEMS disciplines. Faculty advisors and mentors are providing continuous academic and career guidance; identifying opportunities for field experience, conferences, and internships; and integrating CSEMS project services with TRIO and Concurrent Enrollment Programs. The project is targeting women and underrepresented minorities, who make up almost half of the K-12 students within their service area.A two-credit seminar is being provided to improve interaction with business, foster awareness across disciplines, and to provide opportunities for site visits and job shadowing. Second year scholars are being trained to serve as mentors to first year scholars. Support services are being integrated with CSEMS activities. Included are math and science clubs, child-care subsidies, identification of internship opportunities, a competency-based Education/Credit program, and a career placement system.

该项目每年向就读计算机科学、计算机网络、电信、工程或数学转学项目和/或进入劳动力市场的学生颁发 28 份奖学金，为期四年。该项目正在创建一个连贯的学习社区，其中整合了跨学科学习，以提供 CSEMS 学科之间的联系，并通过提供通往 CSEMS 学科内其他机会的途径来创建留住学生的方法。教师顾问和导师提供持续的学术和职业指导；确定现场经验、会议和实习的机会；并将 CSEMS 项目服务与 TRIO 和并发注册计划集成。该项目针对女性和代表性不足的少数族裔，她们几乎占其服务区域内 K-12 学生的一半。正在提供一个两学分的研讨会，以改善与企业的互动，培养跨学科意识，并为现场提供机会拜访和工作见习。二年级学者正在接受培训，以担任一年级学者的导师。支持服务正在与 CSEMS 活动相结合。其中包括数学和科学俱乐部、儿童保育补贴、实习机会的确定、基于能力的教育/学分计划以及职业安置系统。
