- Companies desire for well-educated engineers because they want to optimize the company's processes and invest in technical developments. It is therefore seen as an assignment for Universities to achieve a high efficiency in educating many engineers for these companies. This means that Universities need to attract students and to make sure that the number of dropouts in the first year is minimal. In practice we see the opposite happening. Already in the first semester, students' motivation seems to decrease dramatically and even quite an amount of students leaf the University. This amount needs to be decreased as much as possible. Motivation is related to the learning strategies students use in practice. A tool is developed which enables study Counsellors to measure, to a certain extent, what the learning strategy is of a student and how, if it would be disadvantageous, an unfortunate situation can be changed. Using the tool in practice shows that it would help to lower the dropout rate. The first results seem to be positive. In the coming academic year this tool will be used to a full extent.
