ACCESS Engineering at Montgomery College seeks to increase the number of underrepresented students earning bachelors degrees in engineering who start their education at a community college. Expanding on best practices and innovations involving subject-matter exposure in high school, intensive peer and faculty support, and strong articulation agreements and programmatic enhancements with select 4-year engineering programs, the project expects to provide 150 scholarships and support to two cohorts during the grant period. Recruited from high schools and college-level math and science classes, students are being selected on the basis of academic potential demonstrated by cognitive as well as non-cognitive correlates of academic success for non-traditional populations. An advisory board including academia, industry, and upper-level students is supporting a project management team of administrators, faculty members, and student services staff.

蒙哥马利学院的接入工程旨在增加在社区学院开始教育的获得工程学士学位的代表性不足的学生人数。扩大最佳实践和创新，涉及高中的主题曝光，密集的同行和教师支持，以及强有力的衔接协议和选择4年工程项目的方案增强，该项目预计将提供150个奖学金和支持两个队列在赠款期间。从高中和大学的数学和科学课程中招募学生，根据非传统人群的认知和非认知相关性所表现出的学术潜力来选择学生。一个包括学术界、工业界和高年级学生的咨询委员会正在支持一个由管理人员、教职员工和学生服务人员组成的项目管理团队。
