The
Department of Computer Science offers scholarships to
qualified students enrolled as Computer Science majors.
These scholarships are open to continuing Kean undergraduates
and transfer students.
These generous scholarships are funded through the National
Science Foundation program Scholarships in Science, Technology,
Engineering, and Mathematics (S-STEM, #0804664). Funding
for this competitive award program demonstrates the quality
of CS programs at Kean University.
Qualified students
majoring in Computer Science can receive up to $8,500
per academic year. Each scholarship can be renewed for
the subsequent year - therefore, qualified students can
receive $25,500 over three years through this program,
providing for Sophomore-Junior-Senior years at Kean University.
Our
Computer Science scholarship program has a number of special features
designed to help students receiving the scholarship succeed in
their studies and prepare them for entering high tech employment
fields or a graduate school upon graduation.
These features include:
• Individual mentoring and advising by dedicated faculty
• Specialized tutoring
• Peer mentoring
• Participation in research projects
• Internships with leading employers
• Career opportunities in high demand fields
• Assistance with job placement upon graduation
Underrepresented
minorities and female students are very strongly encouraged
to apply
