A partnership will be formed between Cornell University and key engineering institutions on the island of Puerto Rico (initially to include the Puerto Rico Resource Center for Science and Engineering, the University of Puerto Rico at Mayaguez, and the Polytechnic University), to identify star students early in their undergraduate careers. These students will be resident on the Cornell campus for one summer of course work and either on campus or at the Arecibo Observatory in Puerto Rico for one research-intensive summer. The students will, where appropriate, be encouraged to apply to either the M.S./Ph.D. program directly or to Cornell's one-year M. Eng. Program. With summer research experience and the chance to excel in the M. Eng. Program, we believe many of the later students will also be able to continue to the Ph.D.

波多黎各岛上的康奈尔大学与主要工程机构之间将建立合作伙伴关系（最初包括波多黎各科学与工程资源中心，玛雅格大学的波多黎各大学和多工业大学），以便早期的学生从小就识别出明星学生。 这些学生将在康奈尔校区居住一个夏天的工作，无论是在校园还是在波多黎各的Arecibo天文台进行一个研究密集型夏季。 在适当的情况下，学生将被鼓励申请M.S./ph.d。直接或直接向康奈尔（Cornell）的M. Eng进行计划。程序。 凭借夏季的研究经验，并有机会在M. Eng中表现出色。计划，我们相信许多后来的学生也将能够继续获得博士学位。
