DesignThe core curriculum design for cloud computing leveraged the existing pathway for an associatedegree in computer networking, and partially pulled courses from the design of the bachelor’s ininformation systems technology degree (Figure 3). Figure 3. Integration of new cloud pathways.Using the above-mentioned foundational courses, the three cloud-specific courses added were:Cloud Essentials for the AWS Cloud Practitioner and Cloud Infrastructure and Services for theAWS Solutions Architect certifications. A project-based learning capstone class completed thepathway with industry experiential projects (Table 1). Table 1. Core Course Sequence Guide Courses

“integral part inengineering baccalaureate degree production in higher education [4].” According to the NationalScience Foundation's report, 42% of recipients of an undergraduate degree in engineeringattended a community college [5].Thus, research is needed on this viable and significant university transfer student population. TheNational Science Foundation commissioned a study that was overseen by the National Academyof Engineering’s Committee on Engineering Education and the Committee on Diversity in theEngineering Workforce as well as the National Research Council's Board on Higher Educationand Workforce the National Academies. This study was, in part, to investigate how "educationalinstitutions could improve pathways to careers in engineering

Thecenter and the rest of the building it is housed in will undergo a major renovation through a $450 millionbond package for the Alamo Colleges District. Of that, $83 million will make capital improvements at SanAntonio College.Establishing a college-going culture and promoting STEM was an integral part of MSEIP, which fundedthe Early Development of General Engineering (EDGE) from 2011 to 2015. The summer camp programtaught mathematics, engineering and robotics to high school students. It started with an NSF discretionarygrant in 2003 [50] and served over 300 students with a steady participation of underrepresented minorities,including

online resources such as the Mentor-Connectwebsite and webinars had been informative and motivating. Two others specified that havingface-to-face interactions via the Grant-Writing Workshop had enhanced their overall experience.A few representatives from Cohort 2 did volunteer some specific recommendations. However,these emerged on an individual basis, precluding the development of cohesive themes on thistopic. Instead, the recommendations are detailed individually: • One respondent stated that he/she would like to share curriculum that his/her program had developed using ATE funds with other institutions. While not directly related to improvements in Mentor-Connect per se, the representative would have appreciated guidance
