University offers degrees in mechanical and electrical engineering at WSU Vancouver as well as degrees in mechanical, civil, and electrical engineering at WSU Tri-Cities. New programs have been launched at the regional universities. Eastern Washington University has added majors in mechanical, electrical, and computer engineering to their engineering technology program offerings. Western Washington University recently converted their main engineering technology programs to engineering. Satellite programs have been created where a university partners with a community college to offer a Bachelor of Science degree in engineering on the community college’s campus. As of Fall 2015, there are three
for academic success.1. IntroductionWith the increasing demand for a skilled and technically savvy workforce in the United States,addressing retention problems in the first two years of college is a promising and cost-effectivestrategy to address this need. A recent Committee on STEM Education National Science andTechnology Council report Federal Science, Technology, Engineering, And Mathematics(STEM) Education 5-Year Strategic Plan indicates that the United States needs make STEMeducation a priority. To achieve that goal, the Department of Education has committed $4.3billion to encourage states to develop “comprehensive strategies to improve achievement andprovide rigorous curricula in STEM subjects; partner with local STEM institutions

GrowingOverall, the engineering occupations are projected to add 136,500 jobs through 2022. They willcontinue to be needed to design, build, test, and improve manufactured products. However,during this time, increasing employment of engineers in service industries, research anddevelopment, and consulting should generate most of the employment growth [1].The 2015 National Science Foundation’s Survey of Graduate Students and Post-doctorates inscience and engineering [2] found that from 2008 to 2013 STEM graduate students in the U.S.who were U.S. citizens or permanent residents rose 3.1%.
