Activity 4: Model Transfer Curriculum Pathways

In Activity 4, David Parent works with SJSU Faculty Members from Engineering and Computer Science to develop model transfer and articulation agreements between SJSU and the two community college partners: SJCC and Gavilan. These transfer plans are for students coming from Gavilan and SJCC to our SJSU programs. They will be similar to the 4 and 5-year plans we have for native SJSU students in our programs, except we develop the plan so that the students knew what to take at SJCC and Gavilan. 

Each degree program will create a document that has:

• A four-year graduation plan for SJCC and Gavilan that includes GE.  
• A five-year graduation plan for SJCC and Gavilan that includes GE. 
• A section on common substitutions 
  
  • Example: C++ courses counting for EE30, ENGR 10 substitutions.
• A section on any issues that make it difficult for students to transfer. 
  
  • Example: Gavilan does not have an ENGR 10 class at this time. 
• A section that has a brief introduction to the major. 

Once each program establishes its 4 and 5-year plans, we will work with SJCC and Gavilan to finalize and implement these plans for future transfer students.
