A study of undergraduate computer science students examined
changes in major after the first year. The study examined the fates
of 256 students who enrolled as first-year students in the same
fall semester. The students were classified according to gender and
their declared major at the beginning of the second year. The
students studied were enrolled at a large Midwestern university
several years ago. Discuss how you would conduct a similar study at
a college or university of your choice today. Include a description
of all variables that you would collect for your study.
