The Engineering Leadership Pathway Scholars 2 (ELPS2) project at San José State University (SJSU) is awarding annual renewable scholarships to academically talented, financially needy undergraduate engineering students. The five-year program is generating 30 to 36 future engineering leaders who can serve as role models for other students and be leaders in the 21st century workforce. Scholarship recipients form a cohort of students engaged in personal leadership development activities in parallel with their academic development. With the support faculty and peers mentors and student-led Leadership Teams, ELPS2 scholars develop their own visions of leadership and emerge with personal and professional goals that enable them to make the best of their own talents as well as be prepared to tackle the challenges that face the nation's technical leaders. Intellectual merits of the program lie in the comprehensive nature of the program.The ELPS2 program is recruiting a diverse applicant pool (many of whom are underrepresented in STEM or who are first generation in college), and providing U.S. industry with engineers who have practiced leadership skills. The ELPS2 program is meant to serve as a model for leadership development throughout the SJSU College of Engineering. The project is evaluating the effectiveness of programs for developing leadership characteristics so that the College of Engineering can institutionalize and sustain leadership programming. Lessons learned are being disseminated through the California Engineering Liaison Council, conferences, presentations, and archived articles, and used to expand the ELPS2 program to all interested SJSU engineering students. Dissemination of the lessons learned along with the contribution of the program to a qualified workforce is the major broader impact of the program.

圣何塞州立大学 (SJSU) 的工程领导途径学者 2 (ELPS2) 项目每年向有学术才华、经济困难的工程本科生颁发可续期奖学金。这个为期五年的项目将培养 30 至 36 名未来的工程领导者，他们可以成为其他学生的榜样，并成为 21 世纪劳动力的领导者。奖学金获得者组成了一群在学术发展的同时参与个人领导力发展活动的学生。在教师和同行导师以及学生领导的领导团队的支持下，ELPS2 学者发展了自己的领导力愿景，并提出了个人和职业目标，使他们能够充分发挥自己的才能，并准备好应对国家技术领导者面临的挑战。 该项目的智力优势在于其综合性。ELPS2 项目正在招募多元化的申请者（其中许多人在 STEM 领域代表性不足，或者是大学里的第一代人），并为美国工业界提供具有领导技能的工程师。 ELPS2 计划旨在作为整个 SJSU 工程学院领导力发展的模型。该项目正在评估培养领导力特征的计划的有效性，以便工程学院能够将领导力计划制度化并维持下去。 所学到的经验教训正在通过加州工程联络委员会、会议、演示文稿和存档文章进行传播，并用于将 ELPS2 计划扩展到所有感兴趣的 SJSU 工程专业学生。传播经验教训以及该计划对合格劳动力的贡献是该计划最广泛的影响。
