The CMPS Corporate Scholars Program (CSP) provides highly qualified CMPS students with a combination of internships and scholarships related to their fields of study, while offering employers a cost-effective means of recruiting from a pool of talented pre-screened students to fill internship positions.

Corporate Scholars distinguish themselves through their academic achievement and their professional drive and aspirations. Students who are approved by the Dean’s office and selected for employment participate in some of the best and most exclusive internship opportunities offered each summer. In addition to professional guidance by a company mentor, these positions expose students to unique technology; require active participation in real projects and products and fully envelope students into the workplace environment.

Corporate Scholar positions are truly professional in nature, providing employers with result ending achievements and enhancing a student’s overall educational experience. Preparation for graduation is more than successful completion of required courses, but successful application of knowledge to a professional field and the professionalism required in the workplace. Those who seek the best are those who seek Corporate Scholars.

CSP is designed to assist employers in conducting targeted, efficient recruitment for summer internship opportunities while supporting the student intern through a merit-based scholarship. CSP will consist of the following components:

• A pre-screening process based on applications to the program.
• The awarding of $2,000 merit-based scholarship with internship opportunities.
• A private Dean’s Reception for students, employers and invited CMPS faculty and staff.
• An assigned mentor for each intern provided by the employer.
• A series of site visits by Program Director during the summer internships.
• A structure in which the internships will initially be completed during the summer semester, traditionally 10-12 weeks between June-August (40 hour weeks).

The College of Computer, Mathematical and Physical Sciences would like to thank the following employers for their participation in the summer 2009 Corporate Scholars Program and their commitment to enhancing academics.
