The designed program targets the population of students who havethe ambition to pursue engineering degrees, but often lack the resources or exposure toengineering opportunities. The program was developed to help combat low persistence rates andlong times to completion within the transfer student population. The goal of the project is toincrease the number of community college students who successfully transfer to an engineeringmajor at a 4-year institution and to improve the transfer student experience in engineering byproviding co-curriculum cohort activities to prepare for STEM careers or graduate studies.
