The Engineering Pathway Program (EPP) intends to level the playing field for transfer students interested in studying engineering at a California State University (CSU) or University of California (UC) school. Our program provides relevant internship experience and academic support during their summer of transfer, ensuring they will have a full opportunity for participation in the California workforce.
What made this experience truly exceptional was the intentional community we built together. From day one, we were connected not just to our transfer institutions and academic disciplines, but to each other—creating a network that has been both personally supportive and professionally enriching.
This program is designed to ensure that community college graduates don’t just transfer into UC and CSU engineering programs—but arrive prepared, confident, and ready to succeed…. Their passion for student success is palpable.
Our top partners providing exclusive internships:
- MathWorks
- AT3
- Project Invent
- Snyder Langston
- UniShack
Our 2025 cohort came from 49 community colleges, transferring into all undergraduate-serving UCs and ~50% of CSUs.
