As a reinforcedlearning methodology to greatly assist students’ reasoning and problem-solving skills, virtuallearning was first integrated at the planning stage of their projects. This approach is in contrastwith the typical senior design courses where only limited resources are available for planningexperiments. Using virtual learning

Researchers have shown that students successfully navigate through transfershock when they are more transfer ready. Transfer readiness is impacted by counseling,advice from students and faculty, and an understanding of the academic requirements of thenew institution [11]. Another prominent factor impacting students’ success in four year completion aftertransfer is integration into the social aspects of the new institution.

Additionally, manystudents work over 20 hours per week, often off-campus, and spend an average of 2 hours dailycommuting on public transportation.These circumstances contribute to lower retention and graduation rates, particularly affectingstudents from racial and ethnic minorities who are already underrepresented in the STEMworkforce.
