项目摘要
This project will contribute to the national need for highly skilled scientists, mathematicians, engineers, and technicians by supporting the retention and graduation of high-achieving, low-income STEM undergraduates. The project is located at Azusa Pacific University, a Hispanic-serving institution. Over its five-year duration, the project will fund scholarships to 14 students, who are enrolled at least half-time and are pursuing bachelor’s degrees in computer science, engineering, mathematics, and/or physics. Scholars will enter the project in their first year in college and will be supported for four years. They will participate in a STEM learning community that includes enrollment in common courses, peer and faculty mentoring, and academic success coaching. Additional Scholar supports include a STEM-focused success coach who will provide career guidance, as well as internships and research opportunities. A distinguishing feature of this project is organization of regular family gatherings designed to include Scholars’ families in supporting their students’ degree completion.The overall goal of this project is to increase STEM degree completion of low-income, high-achieving undergraduates with demonstrated financial need. The project aims to increase the Scholars’ first-year retention and four-year graduation rates. In doing so, the project intends to establish an enduring STEM-focused recruitment pipeline that includes local high schools with highly diverse student populations. The project will advance understanding of the effectiveness of pairing significant scholarship support with mentorship, both peer-to-peer and faculty-to-student. With expert guidance from nationally recognized consultants, the project expects to provide Scholars with transformative mentoring experiences, and produce nationally normed, measurable results of project effectiveness. This project is funded by NSF’s Scholarships in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics program, which seeks to increase the number of low-income academically talented students with demonstrated financial need who earn degrees in STEM fields. It also aims to improve the education of future STEM workers, and to generate knowledge about academic success, retention, transfer, graduation, and academic/career pathways of low-income students.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
该项目将通过支持高成就、低收入 STEM 本科生的保留和毕业,满足国家对高技能科学家、数学家、工程师和技术人员的需求。该项目位于阿苏萨太平洋大学,这是一所为西班牙裔服务的机构。在为期五年的时间内,该项目将为 14 名至少半日制学生提供奖学金,这些学生将攻读计算机科学、工程、数学和/或物理学学士学位。第一的他们将在大学学习一年,并将获得四年的支持,其中包括参加公共课程、同伴和教师指导以及学术成功辅导,包括一位专注于 STEM 的成功教练。该项目的一个显着特点是定期组织家庭聚会,让学者家庭支持学生完成学位。该项目的总体目标是提高 STEM 学位的完成率。低收入、成绩优异的本科生该项目旨在大幅提高学者的第一年保留率和四年毕业率,旨在建立一个持久的以 STEM 为重点的招聘渠道,其中包括具有多元化学生群体的当地高中。该项目将在国家认可的顾问的专家指导下,加深对将重要奖学金支持与指导相结合的有效性的理解,并希望为学者提供变革性的指导经验。生产符合国家标准,该项目由 NSF 科学、技术、工程和数学奖学金项目资助,该项目旨在增加有经济需求的低收入学术天才学生获得 STEM 领域学位的数量。旨在改善未来 STEM 工作者的教育,并产生有关低收入学生的学业成功、保留、转学、毕业和学术/职业道路的知识。该奖项反映了 NSF 的法定使命,并通过评估被认为值得支持使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准。
