research evaluates key elements of engineering transfer pathways,including prerequisite courses, major requirements, general education credits, transfer timing,course sequencing, and credit evaluation processes. These states were chosen for theirestablished ADT programs, offering insights into clear articulation agreements, courseequivalency strategies, and targeted support systems. Focusing on five high-enrollmentengineering disciplines, Mechanical, Civil, Electrical, Chemical, and Aerospace Engineering,this study provides actionable recommendations to address the unique challenges of engineeringcurricula and enhance transfer pathways for California’s students.ObjectivesBy analyzing the best practices from these models, the research provides
industries such asautomotive, aerospace, medical, and dental4. The widespread use of 3D printing in such various andcritical applications has made it necessary to conduct research on the dependability of thistechnology and the quality of the finished parts and materials used.Creating a part "layer-by-layer" introduces an undesirable anisotropic characteristic to the finishedproduct5. The engineer's choice of printing orientation on the build plate directly affects the printedpart's mechanical characteristics due to the anisotropic behavior of the 3D printed components. Theaim of this study is to identify the mechanical characteristics of 3D printing materials throughmechanical testing of 3D printed parts
