This site was initially developed with funds from the National Science Foundation (NSF) for students participating in Suffolk County Community College's NSF-CSEMS scholarship grant in computer science, engineering, and mathematics. The NSF grant ended on August 30, 2007; however, funding for the CSEMS program has been continued indefinitely by the Suffolk County Legislature.
The CSEMS program has been discontinued as of the end of the spring 2013 semester. Only continuing students were awarded stipends during the 2012/2013 academic year.
