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.

康奈尔大学将与波多黎各岛上的主要工程机构（最初包括波多黎各科学与工程资源中心、位于马亚圭斯的波多黎各大学和理工大学）建立伙伴关系，以在本科生职业生涯的早期确定星星学生。 这些学生将在康奈尔大学校园居住一个夏天的课程工作，无论是在校园或在阿雷西博天文台在波多黎各一个研究密集型的夏天。 在适当的情况下，鼓励学生申请M.S./博士直接或康奈尔大学的一年M。工程计划。 有了暑期研究经验和在M。工程计划，我们相信许多后来的学生也将能够继续博士学位。
