Expanding Access to Engineering Program

Established in 1973, the Dwight Hutchins Expanding Access to Engineering Program works to increase the number of engineering students from all backgrounds who graduate from the college with a BS, MS, or PhD in engineering by:

• Providing academic preparation and exposure to career possibilities in the area of engineering to pre-college students, thereby increasing the pool of qualified students who enter the college.
• Recruiting students and providing services and resources to ensure their success.
• Working with faculty, staff, and students to create an invigorating and supportive environment.
• Assisting in the preparation of students for graduate studies and engineering careers.
