Learning in Community Colleges and Four-Year UniversitiesIntroduction Community colleges serve an important role in the development of students in science,technology, engineering, and math (STEM) fields. Most community colleges are open-accessinstitutions, with students coming from all different walks of life to enroll in these schools [1].These include students directly out of high-school, or those that are returning to school for asecond career. When looking that the demographics of community colleges, we find that theyserve a disproportionate number of students who are marginalized [2]. These institutions oftenare a gateway to transferring into a four-year school where a student can continue their educationand receive a bachelor’s

Cao, University of California, IrvineAnna-Lena Dicke, University of California, Irvine Dr. Dicke is an Associate Project Scientist within the School of Education at the University of California, Irvine. In her research, she aims to understand how students’ motivation and interest in the STEM fields can be fostered to secure their educational persistence and long-term career success. Trying to bridge the gap between theory and practice, she is currently involved in an NSF-funded project aimed at fostering the persistence and retention of low-income engineering transfer students.Kameryn Denaro ©American Society for Engineering Education, 2023Work-In Progress: Guidelines on Developing Writing

articulation translates into market in-efficiencies that lead to significant equity issues. Indeed, transfer processes produce some of themost inequitable outcomes in all of higher education. In 2018 there were approximately 17 millionundergraduate students attending degree granting postsecondary institutions in the United States,with roughly six million of these students enrolled in community colleges.9 Of these students,based upon historical data, we can expect about 35% of the total population will transfer at leastonce and 11% twice during their academic careers. In doing so, they will on average lose theequivalent of one year of course work with each transfer.10 With the average annual cost of col-lege tuition at $3,500 for community colleges
