The University of Cincinnati Southwest Ohio STEM Scholars Program

The Southwest Ohio STEM scholars program (SOSP) is part of the National Science Foundation’s Scholarships in STEM (S-STEM) initiative.

Here at the University of Cincinnati, the S-STEM Scholars Program supports computer science students who demonstrate strong academic and professional potential. The design of this initiative is to provide a community for students to foster academic, professional, and personal growth.

Our scholars community includes 35 Computer Science students composed of 3 cohorts who:

Engage in hands-on workshops
Participate in professional networking
Develop projects tailored around their interests
Meet with faculty mentors who share their passion for the industry

Together, these experiences strengthen scholars’ core knowledge of Computer Science cirriculum and enrich their overall experience at the University of Cincinnati.
