A program to prepare minority graduate students for a career in engineering education has been designed by the Faculty of the Watson School, SUNY-Binghamton, in conjunction with the engineering Faculty of Morgan State University, a historically black university in Baltimore. The program, called The Partnership, features early identification of academically talented engineering students at Morgan State, and provides academic advising and support to smooth the transition to graduate school at SUNY-Binghamton, financial support through the NSF Graduate Engineering Education Fellowship for the first three years of graduate study, and specific training and encouragement for an academic career. The Watson School and Morgan State are uniquely suited to develop a successful collaborative program. Both are relatively small, young programs with a strong commitment to minority engineering education, links with industry and active support for minority education from the state governments. Both have faculty members who are active in engineering education societies. They have already established a faculty seminar exchange.

纽约州立大学宾厄姆顿分校沃森学院的教员与摩根州立大学（巴尔的摩的一所历史悠久的黑人大学）的工程教员共同设计了一项为少数族裔研究生进入工程教育职业做好准备的计划。 该计划名为“合作伙伴关系”，其特点是尽早识别摩根州立大学有学术才华的工程学生，并提供学术建议和支持，以顺利过渡到纽约州立大学宾厄姆顿分校的研究生院，并通过 NSF 研究生工程教育奖学金为前三名学生提供财务支持多年的研究生学习，以及学术生涯的具体培训和鼓励。 沃森学院和摩根州立大学非常适合开发成功的合作项目。 这两个项目都是规模相对较小、年轻的项目，都坚定地致力于少数族裔工程教育、与工业界的联系以及州政府对少数族裔教育的积极支持。 两者都有活跃于工程教育协会的教员。 他们已经建立了教师研讨会交流。
