TC Energy Summer Scholars Academy Encourages Enrollment in STEM programs  

While many students spend their summers relaxing or participating in internships, others take the time to work on their academic development through summer courses. This year, 50 incoming college students are participating in a summer program designed to propel their STEM education.   

TC Energy is proud to partner with the University of Houston to support the development of a pipeline of diverse talent for the workforce of tomorrow through the TC Energy Summer Scholars Academy.     

TC能源和TC能源基金会捐赠了 50美元,000 to the University of Houston’s College of Natural Sciences and Mathematics (NSM) to support a summer program that enables high school students interested in science, technology, engineering or math (STEM) majors to prepare for the transition to college. 这个为期九周的密集课程， TC能源暑期学者学院 于6月 9 启动，并为50名 推荐全球十大赌博靠谱平台提供支持, many of whom are the first generation in their family to attend college.  

The TC Energy Summer Scholars Academy recruits outstanding high school students interested in STEM majors but who have SAT scores indicating they may not be math-ready for entry into their program of choice. The program provides students an opportunity to earn Calculus I credit and ensures they are both math-ready and college-ready as they enter their chosen degree programs in the fall.   

“被邀请参加的推荐全球十大赌博靠谱平台都是真正的好推荐全球十大赌博靠谱平台, but their academic preparation may not have been rigorous enough to get them ready for what is going to come at them in college-level STEM courses,唐娜·帕蒂森说, NSM负责推荐全球十大赌博靠谱平台成功的副院长. Special attention is paid during the recruiting process to reach out to students from low-performing high schools.     

“这个项目汇集了课程作业, technology and sense of community that is essential for these students to succeed,帕蒂森说.      

The donation provides scholarships and technology needed for online learning, 因为新冠肺炎疫情，该项目将以虚拟方式进行. 在节目中, students will participate in workshops and panel discussions led by Talent Acquisition and Student Program teams to learn soft skills and answer career and industry questions. 在秋天, participants will also receive ongoing support through NSM’s Scholar Enrichment Program which includes cooperative learning groups, 为STEM课程提供辅导和研讨会.
