The Transfer Initiative for Engineering Scholars (TIES) provides scholarships and support services for students transferring from two large minority serving community colleges to engineering programs at the Georgia Institute of Technology. This project builds on the success of several other student centered programs funded by the National Science Foundation. Undergraduate students transferring into engineering programs at the Georgia Institute of Technology from community colleges receive scholarships of up to $10,000 per year to overcome financial barriers of attendance. Engineering scholars receive faculty and peer mentoring, access to specialized designated teaching assistants and exposure to research laboratories and undergraduate research opportunities. Approximately 90 scholarships will be provided during the life of this project.

工程学者（领带）的转会计划为从两家大型少数派服务社区学院转移到佐治亚理工学院的工程课程的学生提供奖学金和支持服务。 该项目建立在国家科学基金会资助的其他几个以学生为中心的计划的成功基础上。 从社区大学转入佐治亚理工学院的工程课程的本科生每年获得高达10,000美元的奖学金，以克服出勤的财务障碍。 工程学者会接受教师和同伴指导，获得专业指定助教的机会，并接触研究实验室和本科研究机会。 在该项目的生活中，将提供大约90项奖学金。
