Özet: Universities today face a wide range of challenges. In many jurisdictions, and especially where public funds provide the majority of university support, declining funding levels have become the norm, and the ongoing global economic downturn has only made this trend worse. This paper describes this process of transformation, from gathering evidence to demonstrate the gaps between first year students’ expectations and experience; to a series of planned initiatives that aimed to enhance our programs, demonstrate the achievement of specific learning outcomes, and engage faculty in a process of continuous curriculum improvement. The last section of the paper describes the many challenges we faced during this process of transformation.
