of AppliedScience (AAS) and Bachelor of Science (BS) degrees in Mechanical Engineering Technology(MET) with an emphasis on Advanced Manufacturing. Through a collaborative curriculumdevelopment process, Rowan College at Burlington County (RCBC) and Rowan University (RU)have created a clearly articulated pathway from the AAS degree to the BS degree. This academicpathway will include a “3+1” delivery model where the first three years of instruction aredelivered by the two-year college, and the final year is delivered by the university, on the two-year college campus. This curriculum development effort has been achieved through activitiesincluding an industry forum as well as a week-long faculty curriculum development workshop.Additional work

As Sergeyev provided a tour of the university’sfacilities, the two began to craft a vision for a program that was broad enough to cover thediverse needs of regional employers, customizable enough for students to tailor their educationalexperience to the requirements of a specific industry or employer, and stackable in a way thatallowed students to receive as little or as much education as they required. Furthermore, thiseducational pathway would represent a partnership between the community college and theuniversity in an unprecedented sharing of curriculum, equipment, and knowledge. The twoinstitutions soon pursued a grant

Program ComponentsOver the past several years, Skyline College has made large strides toward reaching aninstitutional goal of a robust and accessible transfer pathway to 4-year and graduate degrees inEngineering. As a leading partner in the Silicon Valley Engineering Tech Pathways (SVETP)initiative, the college is contributing to an integrated and accelerated system of K-14 STEMcareer pathways to increase the number and diversity of students succeeding in high-demandpost-secondary education and careers in computer science, engineering, and other STEMdisciplines. Through this initiative, the Engineering and Computer Science Departmentdeveloped the Engineering and Technology Scholars (ETS) Program which included
