SHAPING THE FUTURE OF STEM
THE UCLA CHUCK LORRE SCHOLARS PROGRAM
The UCLA Chuck Lorre Scholars Program aims to revolutionize STEM education by preparing undergraduate students with financial need with the necessary tools to make an impact in science, technology, engineering and mathematics.
The UCLA Chuck Lorre Scholars Program is unique in its holistic approach to supporting the scholars full academic and personal experience at UCLA. It will ensure that each The Big Bang Theory Scholar (TBBTS) will receive unparalleled support to meet their specific academic, financial, developmental and personal needs throughout their undergraduate career. This will ensure they receive appropriate resources, address any obstacles, are trained to be leaders and are inspired to pursue graduate STEM degrees. Upon graduation, TBBTS are encouraged to apply for The Big Bang Theory Fellowship, which provides graduate support for a STEM program within the UC system.
As it becomes a California-wide and national model for enacting this desperately needed change, the UCLA Chuck Lorre Scholars Program will create a powerful ripple effect.
