educational institutions. This isnecessary to keep the nation at the forefront of the technological innovation. In recent years,many engineering schools, including first-tier institutions, have observed a general downturn inenrollment. The student retention rate for the first and second years of engineering programs hasbeen falling. Engineering students must be ready for university-level classes in math, physics,chemistry and computer programming. In an all-too-large percentage of cases, these students arenot well prepared in high school for the four-year university programs on which they embark.The problems of recruiting and retaining students adequately prepared for engineeringcoursework are particularly acute in the region served by the University
