Survey Course on Engineering Careers Improve First-Year Engineering Retention?AbstractWith a need for more engineers in the United States, there is a strong interest in student successprograms and curriculum changes that improve student retention. As a part of a research projectto study the modeling of first-year engineering retention at the University of Michigan, therelationship between enrollment in an engineering survey course on engineering careers andfirst-year retention was studied. Experienced faculty teach the course on career opportunities inthe engineering fields that are supported in the College of Engineering.The retention rate of students enrolled in this first-year course on engineering careers wascompared to
