This project focuses on academically talented and financially needy students who transfer from 2-year schools to Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT). Through this scholarship effort, the program recruits, retains and graduates 25 additional transfer scholars per year in engineering and engineering technology BS degree programs. In support of this project, RIT contributes $50,000 to ensure that scholars have continuing financial support after the grant expires. This contribution indicates the university's enthusiasm, a firm commitment of service to engineering and technology students, and an endorsement of the goals and objectives of the scholars program. This scholars program targets women and minority students, identifies scholars in academic trouble and provides help to them through proactive intervention, prepares students with skills, education and work experience needed to enter the high technology workforce, and performs regular and thorough assessment of program level strategies.

这个项目的重点是学术上有才华和经济上有困难的学生谁从2年制学校转移到罗切斯特理工学院（RIT）。通过这项奖学金的努力，该计划每年招募，保留和毕业25个额外的转让学者在工程和工程技术学士学位课程。为了支持这个项目，RIT提供了50，000美元，以确保学者在赠款到期后继续获得财政支持。这一贡献表明了大学的热情，对工程和技术学生服务的坚定承诺，以及对学者计划的目标和目的的认可。 该奖学金方案的目标是妇女和少数民族学生，确定在学术上遇到困难的学者，并通过积极干预为他们提供帮助，为学生提供进入高科技劳动力所需的技能、教育和工作经验，并对方案一级的战略进行定期和全面的评估。
