点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

Chandler-Gilbert Community College in Arizona is continuing its successful program, called High-Tech Transfer Program Scholars (HTTPS), in which academically talented but financially needy students in science, engineering, computer science, and mathematics are given financial and academic support to prepare them to achieve an associate's degree or transfer credits and continue on to contribute to the STEM workforce. Special attention is paid to recruiting and supporting students underrepresented in the STEM disciplines, particularly drawing on the regional population of Hispanic and Native American students, thereby broadening the impact of this program. Women and persons with disabilities will likewise be encouraged to participate in the HTTPS program's academic and extra-academic activities.
