The decline in the natural sciences andengineering degrees conferred can also be attributed to the student attrition from these programs afterthe students are on campus.Reasons for Student Attrition:Previous studies have indicated that significant student attrition or “switching” from science andengineering educational programs to other fields occurs during the first one or two years of
