Keystone Program
Kevin Calabro is Keystone Instructor, Principal Lecturer, and Director of the Keystone Program at the University of Maryland and Credit & Placement Team Lead on the National Science Foundation funded Engineering for US All (e4usa) high school engineering initiative. Kevin received his Bachelor of Science degree in Aerospace Engineering and Master of Science degree in Civil Engineering from the University of Maryland. He was hired as a lecturer in 2006 when the Keystone Program formed and has been driven since that time by the desire to provide engineering students with the best educational experience possible during their first two years on campus. Since 2006 when Calabro joined the Keystone Program, 2-year retention rates within engineering have risen by 12.4% to 79.2% and five-year graduation rates have risen by 18.1% to 76.0%.
