-oriented methodology in constructing engineering and businessapplications has grown exponentially since the early 90’s. In the object-orientedmethodology, the software design focuses on objects instead of functions and functionaldecompositions. An object is introduced as a discrete entity, containing its data andfunctions. The main aspects of the object-oriented methodology includes encapsulation,inheritance and polymorphism [3]. Encapsulation refers to wrapping object attributes andbehaviors in an enclosed entity, inheritance deals with object reuse, and polymorphismconcerns with object having access to a behavior where the knowledge to the access isknown at runtime.Objects encapsulate the related attributes (data or member data) and behaviors

In addition, the scholarship awards need to becomplemented with academic support programs so that students persist to graduation.In this paper, these ideas will be illustrated using results from a National Science Foundation(NSF) Scholarships in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (S-STEM) projectthat targets students from underrepresented groups who have financial need, but do not qualifyfor university-level scholarships.

Nevertheless, critical issues for the nation’s S&Einfrastructure remain unsettled. Among them, America faces a demographic challenge withregards to its S&E workforce: Minorities are seriously underrepresented in science andengineering, yet they are also the most rapidly growing segment of the population.Underrepresented minority groups comprised 28.5 percent of our national population in 2006,yet in the same period, represented just 9.1 percent of college-educated Americans in science andengineering occupations.

More formally,work ethic can be described as the set of beliefs, values and principles that prescribe the mannerin which individuals interpret and act on their rights and responsibilities at any given time withinthe context of work 1. The origin of work ethic can be traced back to Max Weber’s interminglingof Calvinist religious ideology and economics in the early 1900’s. Weber’s philosophy laid thefoundation for the development of the term Protestant Work Ethic 2. Since then, having a strongwork ethic has become a widely accepted and desirable trait for students and thus futureemployees 3 and entrepreneurs to possess.
