SUMMARY:Belonging Before Transfer: EPCC Engineering Students Engaging in U
 TEP Research/Activities to Strengthen Transfer and Student Success
LOCATION:313 Templeton
DESCRIPTION:Poster Presentation\n\nPresenters: Ivette Chuca\, Mathematics 
 Professor\, El Paso Community College\, Mathematics Department\; Joanne M
 oyer\, PhD\, Associate Professor of Instruction\, University of Texas at 
 El Paso\, Civil\, Environmental\, and Construction Engineering\n\nThis se
 ssion highlights a collaborative partnership between El Paso Community Co
 llege and The University of Texas at El Paso that provides engineering st
 udents with early exposure to research while still enrolled at the commun
 ity college. Through this initiative\, EPCC students work alongside UTEP 
 faculty and graduate students on engineering research projects\, gaining 
 hands-on experience while building meaningful academic and professional c
 onnections.\n\nDuring this session\, presenters will share the structure 
 of the partnership\, strategies used to recruit and support students\, an
 d the impact the program has had on student engagement\, research partici
 pation\, and transfer success. Participants will gain insights into how c
 ross-institution collaborations can create meaningful research opportunit
 ies and strengthen pathways for community college students pursuing engin
 eering degrees.\n\nhttp://next-to-u.app/events/b249dbc1-696f-4fb7-93e9-20
