Abstract
The School of Engineering. Technology, and Computer Science (ETCS) at Indiana-Purdue University Ft Wayne (IPFW) has been very successful this past year in efforts related to K-12 outreach. Record participation was achieved in several programs. External funding is required for all programs along with assessment of outcomes. Potential donors and university administrators will want to know "What happens to the students that participate in our programs? Do they enroll in engineering, technology, or computer science programs after high school?" This work in progress will describe a new program, INSITE, which is presently in the development stage.
