Scholarships are being awarded to two cohorts of twelve students who excel in science, demonstrate financial need, and are majoring in the biological sciences, chemistry, computer science, the geosciences or physics. The awardees are being selected from among the eligible applicants entering their junior year who are either already attending Parkside or transferring from regional two-year colleges. Scholarship recipients are being provided with living arrangements (a suite of shared apartments on campus) that facilitate cohort-building. Upper level science majors and science graduates are serving as mentors. The graduate mentors are aiding the student scholars to understand the professional skills needed, knowledge about career opportunities, and career preparation. Special efforts are being expended to increase the number of students from underrepresented groups majoring and graduating in STEM fields.

奖学金已被授予两名在科学领域表现出色，表现出财务需求并主修生物科学，化学，计算机科学，地球科学或物理学的十二名学生的奖学金。获奖者是在进入大三的合格申请人中，他们要么已经参加了Parkside，要么是从区域性两年的大学中转移的。 为奖学金获得者提供了促进队列建设的生活安排（校园中的一套共用公寓）。上层科学专业和科学毕业生正在担任导师。研究生导师正在帮助学生学者了解所需的专业技能，了解职业机会和职业准备。 正在花费特别的努力来增加STEM领域主修和毕业的人数不足的学生人数。
