| THEME: Future of Engineering Curricula | |

THEME: Transfer Student Success Enablers: From 2Y to 4Y Institutions |
|

The transfer from two-year institutions to four-year institutions should be relatively seamless. Unfortunately, it is not for many engineering students. Some institutions, however, have been successful in managing this transfer process, and they have set in place strong support systems for advancing persistence. Let’s here from one of them. |
