ETD Session 435 Engineering Technology Students: Factors Predicting Success Gretchen A. Mosher Iowa State UniversityIntroduction to the problemThe published literature regarding students who depart engineering has generally not examinedthose who stay in the “T” part of STEM by pursuing engineering technology (ET). Internal datafrom the authors’ department suggest that students who transfer into ET from engineering fieldsoften succeed in the more hands-on setting, but bring with them far lower early-semester GPAs.Internal data also show that these transfers may have
