  Description

 

This program supports students who take higher level science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) courses. Participants will actively be involved in the activities of STEM seminars, field trips and student clubs. They are encouraged and expected to take leadership of the clubs of STEM. They will closely work with their faculty mentors for prompt and individualized help.

  Participants will receive the following benefits:
 
  • $600 NSF-Oakton STEM Fellowship ($300 in fall, $300 in the following spring)
  • Mentoring from a faculty member, and
  • Increased exposure to STEM through special speaker events, workshops, club activities, and field trips.
  Participants in SMP are not eligible for the STEM Enrichment Program (SEP) Fellowship.
  Students who have completed SEP have said that the best features of the Program are:
    "knowledge & exposure."
"getting help by mentor and getting to know more about different careers."
"bringing students and faculty closer together."
