Iowa State University (ISU) and Des Moines Area Community College (DMACC) are partnering on this project to increase the number of students graduating with a bachelor's degree in engineering at ISU and the number of students in STEM areas of study at DMACC. Retention is being increased by a new learning community model, called a learning village or meta-community. The learning village model incorporates various learning communities as well as service learning projects for engineering students in their second and third years of study. First-year and gateway engineering courses are being reviewed to better engage students, to provide flexibility, and to support transfer students. The ACCESS program makes gateway courses available through distance education. Student-centered advising broadens the diversity of students enrolled in engineering and makes students aware of the various paths to successfully completing an engineering degree, including transfer from a community college. ISU Extension is a partner on the project to develop the STEM TEC (Talent in Every County) initiative.

爱荷华州立大学（ISU）和得梅因地区社区学院（DMACC）正在合作开展该项目，以增加在ISU获得工程学士学位的学生人数，以及在DMACC学习STEM领域的学生人数。一种新的学习社区模式（称为学习村或元社区）提高了留存率。学习村模式结合了各种学习社区和服务学习项目，为二年级和三年级的工程专业学生提供服务。为了更好地吸引学生，提供灵活性，并支持转学生，正在审查第一年和入门级工程课程。ACCESS计划通过远程教育提供门户课程。以学生为中心的建议拓宽了工程专业学生的多样性，让学生意识到成功完成工程学位的各种途径，包括从社区大学转学。ISU扩展是STEM TEC（每个县的人才）倡议项目的合作伙伴。
