The Engineering Momentum Pathway
Whenever you’re starting—right after high school graduation or after you've already started community college—our pathway supports your pursuit of an engineering career.
If you’re interested in solving problems and designing solutions to improve the world, you may have a future in engineering. Even if you haven’t previously focused on math or science, we invite you to learn more about Engineering Momentum.
And if you’re already interested in pursuing a degree in engineering after you've earned your high school diploma, consider applying for our Engineering Summer Bridge and/or applying to the STEM Core program at one of our partner community colleges.
BEGIN HERE
After you graduate high school or get your GED, consider participating in (and get paid to attend!) our Engineering Summer Bridge program, an optional accelerator designed to jump start your engineering pursuits, offering coursework that strengthens your math skills while introducing you to college-level engineering concepts.
This 5-week program pays students a competitive stipend and is designed to ease the transition to college through academic preparation, mentorship from faculty and peers, and project-based learning.
