As Program Coordinator and Data Analyst for the Engineering Pathway Program for Community College Students (EPP), you will assist the Executive Director in all aspects to help this new program to succeed. In the Program Coordinator role, you will organize the activities and messaging of the EPP to support its success. This includes completing and approving transactions for signature by supervisor or other authorized institutional official. You will help prepare proposals for grants/contracts that require compelling narratives as well as task budgets, option years, multiple investigators, and multiple sub-awards.

In the Program Coordinator and Data Analyst role,  you will play a crucial role in driving data-driven decision-making and supporting our vision. You will collect, analyze, and interpret data to identify trends, patterns, and insights that inform our programs and strategies. In collaboration with the Executive Director, the incumbent will work on proposals and awards of diverse scope where analysis of data requires a thorough understanding of complex regulations. We are seeking a collaborative, professional, team player. The incumbent should be proactive, understand university policy, and be motivated to contribute to the team.

The Engineering Pathway Program for Community College Students (EPP) is designed to address the challenges faced by community college students in engineering, who often encounter barriers in credit transfer and progression due to the lack of standardized pathways. This new initiative is dedicated to improving the educational pathways for community college students transferring to California State Universities (CSUs) or the University of California (UCs) in engineering. Our goal is to ensure that community college students transferring to California State Universities or University of California campuses in engineering will have full participation in the California workforce – on an equal footing as their counterparts who enrolled as university freshmen. The Engineering Pathway Program for Community College Students (EPP) will work closely with the California Engineering Liaison Council (ELC) to foster deeper integration between community colleges, universities, and the engineering industry.
