to discuss “which courses they were going to be taking” and“possibly share class notes and were planning to work together on group projects”. Students hadacquired a sense of belonging and were more motivated to continue to be enrolled in engineeringcourses. One key aspect was that students were highly interested in conducting research which inturn they had already contacted some of the faculty members by the beginning of week one ofthe fall quarter. One student stated, “he allowed me to join his research even though I wasn'tofficially settled into school yet”. It appeared that their motivation level had seen an increasefrom when they initially attended the one-week program in comparison to their first week ofbeing enrolled at a four-year

most students, this change to a researchinstitution was positive, but there was one student who regretted coming to a research institutionwhere he felt the emphasis was on graduate research rather than undergraduate education.Although research institutions offer opportunities to engage in undergraduate research, surveydata indicates that transfer students are less likely to be engaged in these opportunities. Only14.8% of transfer students report involvement in a faculty research project, whereas 35.1% ofnon-transfer students report engaging in research. This difference is possibly due to their shorttenure at the university and the challenges of beginning as a research assistant.Transferring to a research institution also changed the instructor

engineers as indicated by thepost-program survey and focus group results. In addition to strong successes in the acceleratedmath curriculum, the lab activities and design projects in Introduction to Engineering were wellreceived by students and allowed them to explore the major fields of engineering, increase theirknowledge of specific engineering topics and disciplines, as well as understand a variety of jobfunctions in an engineering career. The program has also shown to provide context tofundamental physics and math concepts—a strategy that has been proven to increase studentmotivation and persistence, especially during the potential struggle through the first two years oftheir engineering studies.Several key findings emerged from the focus
