| Abstract: | Selecting an undergraduate institution in the United States has been one of the most exciting, yet stressful experiences in college students and their families' lives. Simultaneously, undergraduate institutions need to identify and meet student expectations and the current job market demands in order to recruit and retain highly qualified students. Once students have selected their ideal institution, student satisfaction and motivation, individually and collectively, are major indicators of retention and graduation at the college level. Student retention has become a challenging issue in many institutions and for the academic community nationwide. Curricular and departmental characteristics have played a crucial role in increasing student satisfaction and motivation, and in improving student retention and graduation at the college level. Strong curriculum and department, through an investment of various resources and a unique collection of course work, is a necessary condition to enhance student learning and development. This paper evaluates previously published literature regarding curricular and departmental characteristics that affect satisfaction and retention of undergraduate students in the United States.
