Summary
The National Science Foundation (NSF) S-STEM program provides funding to institutions of higher education to award scholarships to academically talented, low-income students pursuing associate, baccalaureate, or graduate degrees in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) disciplines. The program aims to increase the number of low-income STEM graduates entering the workforce or advanced degree programs. Awards support both student scholarships and the development of effective educational and support activities at recipient institutions.
