Abstract
This interactive panel discussion is based on a work in progress funded by the National Science Foundation, initiated to address common problems faced by engineering programs in community colleges. This effort is directed at building a unified approach for attracting and retaining students in engineering and to articulate a seamless engineering curriculum for a continuum of education that will fortify technical education for the new millennium.
