Alternatively, studentsmay need to transfer their physics knowledge to their power systems design course. Thoughfundamental for success in engineering, very little research has investigated the transfer oflearning between basic math, science, and physics courses and the rest of the engineeringcurriculum, specifically through the eyes of students. As a result, little literature is available forhelping instructors assist students in transitioning into these courses. In addition, there is littleguidance for students seeking to learn best practices for transferring their learning. This paperpresents findings from interviews with current biological
