When executed well, multi-campus courses providestudents with a variety of study options, extend the reach of exceptional instructors, and offerinstitutions opportunities for cost savings. In some contexts, courses taught using ICT helpbridge cultural boundaries, improve cross-pollination of ideas between institutions, and bringcomprehensive, sophisticated programs to rural areas [1]–[4].Despite dramatic innovations in teaching and communications technology, there remainsignificant challenges to implementing multi-campus programs effectively.

asbeing for people who are “clever, bright, reserved, socially clumsy” or unlike ordinary people[1], and incompatible with non-masculine identities [1]. Undergraduate students without muchexposure to alternatives to these stereotypes may not envision themselves as being able to orwanting to do research. At the same time, research experiences may be the most accessibleduring an undergraduate degree at a research institution. Explicitly exposing students to research,especially students who feel they do not fit the cultural stereotype, may be a step to ultimatelyincrease diversity among graduate students and faculty members in engineering. In addition,many positions in industry require research thinking – exposing students to research maystrengthen

As a result, many transfer students obtain a lower GPA in their first year 1after the transfer process is complete. This phenomenon is often referred to as “transfer shock”.As a result, transfer students generally have lower graduation rates with respect to their peers.A study of existing literature reveals that the most common barriers to

Lackof student preparation in all dimensions needed to succeed in the engineering environment–a“misalignment” between engineering education and practice has long been noted, and manyengineering graduates still endure a challenging transition to the workforce [1], [2]. To addressthis need, engineering educators have incorporated project-based learning in the curriculum [3],[4], [5], including capstones [6] and design projects [7].
