Abstract:
Students enrolled in technical programs are similar to students in four-year degree programs in at least one respect - they often change their career goals. Many technical students request transfers to other academic programs. In the Institute of Agricultural Technology at Michigan State University, 20-25% of the graduates transfer to a four-year degree program in agriculture. At some institutions the percentage of transfers is even higher. I am told that over 30% of the technical graduates from our host campus (Cobleskill) transfer to a degree program at Cornell or elsewhere.
