are envisioned in either setting. This paper will discuss the design and impendingimplementation of a two-year “biomedical engineering technology” program tailored to meet thee-healthcare workforce needs of the end of this decade and those required as we move into the2020s for both clinical sites and home environments.IntroductionDuring the early 1970’s, Springfield Technical Community College (STCC), a commuter collegelocated in the center of Springfield, Massachusetts established a distinct two-year BiomedicalInstrumentation Technology (BMIT) associates in science (AS) degree program. The programwas typical of biomedical technology programs of the time and had the goal of graduatingtechnicians that could deal with biomedical equipment in a

, and mathematics (S-STEM)grant application. The results are further analyzed to give direction for more effective retentionefforts, including advisement about courses and workloads.IntroductionCommunity and technical colleges are a major component of the American higher educationsystem. The proliferation of commuity and technical colleges over the last century significantlyincreased participation in higher education, predominantly among people with limitedopportunities for education beyond high school due to academic difficulties, financialconstraints, and other factors3. Unfortunately, the number of student graduates from communityand technical colleges with a certificate or a degree does not match the substantial growth in thenumber of

. Additionalresearch of this novel finding should be performed, particularly with regard to the relationshipsbetween SES, first generation students, and self-efficacy. One recommendation for futureresearch is to modify the demographic portion of the survey instrument to include additionalquestions pertaining to respondent SES. More information will only help to clarify and possiblysupport this unique finding.Future studies should be conducted to confirm these findings as well as to identify additionallinks between personal characteristics and self-efficacy of community college engineeringstudents. One avenue for future research includes extending the study into a longitudinal studyto collect data over time. This study and Whannell et al.’s study had similar

participated in this program have seen asignificant improvement in transfer rates into a 4 year school to 94% when compared to a 39%statewide average1, and of this, 97% of those who transferred are now working towards anundergraduate degree in a STEM major.

Since 1994, he has directed an extensive engineering mentoring-research academic success and professional development (ASAP) program that has served over 500 students. These efforts have been supported by NSF STEP, S-STEM, and CSEM grants as well as industry. Dr. Rodriguez’ research inter- ests include: control of nonlinear distributed parameter, and sampled-data systems; modeling, simulation, animation, and real-time control (MoSART) of Flexible Autonomous Machines operating in an uncertain Environment (FAME); design and control of micro-air vehicles
