UF Engineering and Computer Science Transfer Students: We Want to Hear from You!

 Dear UF CISE Students,

My name is Caroline Lubbe, and I am a University of Florida PhD Candidate advised by Dr. Sindia Rivera-Jiménez in the Engineering Communities & Participatory Change (ECoPaC) Research Group.
At ECoPaC, we explore the adjustment experiences of engineering and computer science transfer students at UF, and we are inviting current UF engineering and computer science transfer students to participate in an ongoing research project related to this topic (UF IRB Exempt #ET00047771). Your insights can make a meaningful impact on improving the transfer process for future students. 
How to participate:
  1. Complete a short pre-screening survey about your background and experiences at UF: Take the survey
  2. Students who complete the survey may be contacted for a follow-up interview.
  3. $25 gift card provided for interview participation.
If you have any questions or concerns about the survey or the research project itself, feel free to contact either of us at rivera.jimenez@eng.ufl.edu or clubbe@ufl.edu.  
Thank you for considering sharing your experiences! 
Best regards,  
Caroline Lubbe, PhD Candidate, Department of Chemical Engineering  
Dr. Sindia Rivera-Jiménez, Assistant Professor, Department of Engineering Education
