Engineering Transfer - Improving Transfer Pathways for Engineering Students

The brief starts with a short overview of the RP Group’s current research on transfer in engineering. We then summarize what the research says about how engineering transfer works for students, grouped by three key issues: increasing access, improving transfer success and enhancing the pipeline’s efficiency. The RP Group invites engineering educators and employers to respond to this research and use it to generate ideas for action. In this spirit, we conclude the brief with a series of discussion questions to stimulate reflection on and dialog about how to make this research work for practitioners, employers and students.
