Description
Double your impact! Thanks to the Department of Education HSI Title V Grant, all gifts to MESA Engineering Program will be matched dollar for dollar!
Establish a permanent base of funding to institutionalize critical services for Hispanic and low-income students in the College of Engineering, Computer Science, and Construction Management. Funds will directly support students in areas such as Undergraduate Research Opportunities, Scholarships, and attending STEM Conferences.
How will donations be used?
Funds raised will be used to institutionalize support and program services for students. This includes Undergraduate Research Opportunities for students with $5,000 stipends, and scholarship support ranging from $500-$2,500. Funds will also be used to cover conference registration, hotel fees, and transportation costs for STEM Conference attendance.
Support STEM students through the HSI STEM-Engineering MEP Endowment!
The MESA Engineering Program (MEP) offers participating engineering, computer science, and construction management students a variety of services to assist them with navigating college life and engineering courses. Services include academic assistance, paid summer undergraduate research opportunities, professional development, employment opportunities, financial aid and scholarship application assistance, peer mentoring, as well as access to the MEP/CSC² Engineering Student Study Center.
Why are donations necessary?
Donated funds will be used to ensure that STEM students will be supported for years to come through the creation of the HSI STEM - MEP Endowment. Due to the awarding of a Department of Education HSI Title V Grant, there is a “Dollar for Dollar” match of donated funds (up to $100,000 annually)! This means, every dollar that is raised is doubled! The goal of the five-year grant funding is to create a $1 Million Dollar Endowment that directly funds student success!
