Attracting Students to Engineering - The Articulation of Engineering Students, the Community College, and the Engineering School.

Based on the premise that there has been relatively little effort in coordinating the activities of engineering-related areas in the community college to those of the engineering schools, a project to improve these efforts in the State of Missouri was undertaken and is discussed in this paper. The project has generated cooperative curricula between each of the public two-year community colleges in the State of Missouri and the University of Missouri. A new degree of cooperation between individuals at the various community colleges and the University of Missouri has been developed. (Author/EB)
