The "Pipeline Program" is supporting twenty lower division and twenty upper division students with $1,000 scholarship awards per year for lower division students and up to $6,000 scholarship awards per year for upper division students over a four year period to pursue studies in Computer Science, the Physical Sciences, Biology, Engineering, and Mathematics. The project targets students from low-income families, who otherwise might not be able to pursue these courses of study; it provides academic support courses; and it seeks to improve the students' retention rate by lowering their employment load. The project is improving graduation and retention rates, thus reducing the time to graduation for scholarship recipients in the S-STEM fields. The project also expects to increase the participation rate for underrepresented groups in the S-STEM fields.

“管道计划”是支持20个低年级和20个高年级的学生，每年为低年级学生提供1,000美元的奖学金，每年为高年级学生提供高达6,000美元的奖学金，为期四年，以攻读计算机科学，物理科学，生物学，工程学和数学。该项目的目标是来自低收入家庭的学生，否则他们可能无法继续学习这些课程;它提供学术支助课程;它寻求通过降低学生的就业负担来提高他们的留存率。该项目正在提高毕业率和保留率，从而缩短S-STEM领域奖学金获得者的毕业时间。该项目还有望提高S-STEM领域代表性不足群体的参与率。
