Session ID#: 35975

Session Description:
Facilitating transfer of students between institutions is a complex and multi-faceted issue. This workshop is designed for participants from two – year and four –year institutions to address strategies and approaches for bridging the gap between two-year and four-year ocean science programs.  We will explore the following topics:  Advising/support strategies; development of important student skills through curricular and co-curricular experiences; 2YC-4YCU faculty interactions; cross-institutional collaborations including recruitment and student research projects, field trips, and bridge programs; and programs that support the transition and integration of students into the 4-year institution. The workshop is sponsored by the Supporting and Advancing Geoscience Education in Two-year Colleges program.  Registration is required and the deadline for registration is January 15, 2018.  To register:  https://serc.carleton.edu/sage2yc/workshops/OS18_pathways/index.html
