National Science Foundation Scholars Program Act

The National Science Foundation Scholars Program Act would establish a competitive scholarship program for undergraduate students pursuing degrees in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM). In addition to direct financial aid for students, the bill would provide $5,000 annual grants to participating colleges and universities to fund mentorship programs, research poster sessions, and professional networking opportunities with industry experts. The legislation also calls for the creation of a dedicated online platform to help students share their research and discover new academic and career opportunities in technical fields.
