Emily Knaphus-Soran and Colleagues Publish Findings on the Redshirt in Engineering Model

CERSE Core Staff member Emily Knaphus-Soran and colleagues have published a study in the Advances in Engineering Education Journal titled “The Redshirt in Engineering Model: Lessons Learned through Implementation Across Six Institutions.” The research seeks to help address the need for wider participation in engineering education. The NSF-funded Redshirt in Engineering Consortium, formed in 2016, aims to support underprepared, low-income students in graduating with engineering degrees. The study highlights key lessons from implementing Redshirt programs. It also describes the Redshirt in Engineering Model’s five key pillars and offers insights for other institutions considering implementing the Redshirt program. 

Congratulations to Emily and the team for their impactful work!
