OverviewAI-generated summary

Aysa Galbraith's research investigates student success and retention within higher education, with a particular focus on engineering programs. Her work examines the impact of foundational mathematics education on engineering graduation rates, exploring strategies such as summer math bridge programs to prepare students for college-level coursework. Galbraith has also studied methods for retaining students who may be over-prepared for common first-year engineering curricula, as well as the attitudes and academic experiences of freshman engineering students. Her publications explore the integration of support systems to build student resilience and the perceptions of hands-on learning activities, such as mini-projects, in introductory engineering courses. Galbraith has co-authored numerous publications with collaborators including Heath Schluterman and Leslie Massey.
