Electromechanical Systems Design Laboratory for the ETAC-ABET AccreditationAbstractIn the field of assessment in higher education, practitioners regularly mention two features as keyfor success at implementing a sustainable assessment model, i) it has to be faculty-driven, and ii)it has to become part of the curriculum. This paper describes an assessment model incorporatingthese features. The model was developed and implemented for assessing both the ETAC-ABETProgram Criteria for an associate degree in Electromechanical Engineering Technology programand the new ETAC-ABET (2019-2020) student outcome (2), which regards students' ability todesign systems, components, or processes for well-defined engineering technology problemsappropriate to the discipline

most relevant toaddress current and future challenges faced by manufacturing engineers. Since manufacturingtechnologies combine core principles of electrical, mechanical, and industrial engineeringtraining along with management and leadership skills, engineers need to possess broad as well asapplied skill sets in those areas. The BSET program offers hands-on knowledge and expertise tointegrate theory and practice, solve real-world problems, conduct research and becomeindependent learners [3]. The program will prepare students to use systems-based approaches toengage effectively in problem solving within complex, fast-paced manufacturing plants.

seen double digit percent growth (2018: 27.1%, 2019: 15.8%, 2020: 19.5%). In fact, the engineering technology program enrollments currently represent 7.1% of the college’s undergraduate enrollment, the highest it has been in the past eleven years. In retrospect, it is clear that the move to General Engineering has increased the visibility of engineering technology in the college. More importantly, when students have an opportunity to experience the first-year math, science and engineering courses prior to choosing a discipline, they are able to make a more informed choice based on their interests, career goals, and natural abilities. 2) Impact on Pathways into Engineering Technology – Prior to 2014, the

good chances for several of them to be further extended into seniorprojects. Students that are taking this course in parallel with the actual senior project course, andwho have already selected a capstone project topic, may still choose to identify thecommunication aspects of their senior project and make that portion of their senior project thefocus of the course project. This is also a very good option, for the two projects to complementeach other, because the student can use the learning and feedback from this course to enhance theongoing senior project.The wireless communications course was offered in the new format in fall 2019 and fall 2020.First offering was more of a pilot course and a small group of students took the course, only
