Abstract
This chapter presents an innovative framework detailing 14 best practice recommendations for the design of higher education STEM induction programmes. The framework has been devised through a student-led initiative as part of a fourth-year engineering undergraduate group project undertaken at the University of Warwick. The framework aims to successfully facilitate student transition by bridging the gap between prior schooling and higher education. The framework can be used as a supporting tool by other educators to assist in the delivery of higher education induction programmes for multiple subjects of study. The design of an induction programme is presented to provide an example of how the framework's recommendations can be implemented in practice. The programme has been specifically designed to facilitate first-year engineering undergraduate transition. It is anticipated that the reader may take inspiration from these designs and implement their own novel induction programme successfully facilitating student transition into higher education in alternative study contexts.
