The National Association of Manufacturers notes, in their recent report “KeepingAmerica Competitive: How a Talent Shortage Threatens American Manufacturing” thatthere will be a projected need for 10 million new skilled workers by 2020. They believethat “A long-term manufacturing employment and skill crisis is developing, one withominous implications for the economy and national security.” Given the significant joblosses in manufacturing, it is becoming increasingly difficult to attract a new generationof young people into advanced technological education programs, which would preparethem for

. Another goal of the NSF Student Enrollment andEngagement through Connections (SEEC) grant is to increase the diversity ofengineering graduates at ISU. The specific goals of SEEC are to increase thenumber of engineering graduates by 100 per year to obtain a total of about 900per year with approximately 10% from minorities and 20% females12. The key tomeeting these goals is the creation of meaningful connections between ISU andthe state community colleges to support transfer students. This project has focusedon five such connections: 1) a new admission partnership program, 2) coordinatedadvising and activities planning, 3) expansion of learning communities at ISU andstate community colleges, 4) creation of an engineering orientation class at

One conclusion was that articulationagreements must be supported by partnerships between two-year and four-year colleges toachieve seamless transfers of students from the two-year schools. In addition, student outcomesand competencies should be used for articulation instead of courses.
