The purpose of the Tennessee Technological University project is threefold: (1) to encourage female engineering students to enroll in graduate school and continue their studies until they have attained the Ph.D. degree; (2) to assist such students to understand the expectations of graduate education and fully develop their potential in school and beyond; and (3) to encourage the students to consider careers as engineering educators. Special encouragement and support of the students will be provided by the project director and two specially selected outstanding engineering faculty members (mentors) in addition to the support provided by each student's major professor. The director and mentors will recruit the students, will meet regularly with them, will monitor their progress, and will offer help and guidance relative to the students' personal and career development.

田纳西理工大学项目的目的有三个：(1)鼓励女工科学生进入研究生院并继续学习，直到获得博士学位；(2)帮助这些学生了解研究生教育的期望，并在学校和其他地方充分发展他们的潜力；(3)鼓励学生考虑从事工程教育的职业。除了每个学生的主要教授提供的支持外，项目主任和两名特别挑选的优秀工程学教员(导师)将对学生提供特别的鼓励和支持。主任和导师将招收学生，定期与他们会面，监督他们的进步，并提供与学生个人和职业发展相关的帮助和指导。
