previous knowledge of mechanical-based engineering concepts [4].Even though the field has been prevalent for decades, research into its educational aspect islacking. Research that does exist reveals course requirements for similar degrees vary acrossdifferent universities in the United States and abroad [2],[3],[4]. While unsurprising, this bringsup a question of how we can best prepare the next generation of transportation engineers from aneducational standpoint. A recent study from 2013 provides a broad overview of the current stateof students’ introduction to transportation engineering via a survey of 84 of the 224 civilengineering programs accredited by the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology(ABET) [3]. This study revealed that

especiallyimportant due to potential pitfalls surrounding computational modeling. As Lingefjärd [13]documented, masters students building models in a computational environment would lend anunreasonable level of trust to the results of those models. In a sense, computing would ‘takeover’ and students would not engage in critical thinking to critique their own models.Lingefjärd’s studies “confirmed the essential role played by the validation part of mathematicalmodeling when technology is present.” Explicit instruction and practice in validation maycontribute to training students who exercise engineering judgment to wield and consumecomputational models critically.While explicit teaching of modeling is rare in undergraduate education, there does exist

paper.IntroductionThe President’s Council of Advisors on Science and Technology [1] stresses the importance ofengineering in the United States. Over the past few decades, the need to promote and improveengineering education in the US has fueled several science education reforms. One of the latestsignificant reforms is the introduction of the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS). TheNGSS launched in 2013, and 88% of the states are now using the NGSS or other standardsmodeled on the NGSS. These states account for approximately 71% of the US students [2]. TheNGSS requires students to learn engineering within their K-12 science curriculum [3]. Likewise,K-12 teachers are expected to teach engineering within K-12 science curricula [4]. However,most teacher

Engineering concepts began to trickle down into theundergraduate curriculums, typically in the Computer Science or Computer Engineering areas. In 1995,ISO/IEC 12207 [1] was published, providing a baseline for the discipline. The concept of a softwareengineering major was first put forth in 1997 [2]. Work then began on a set of guidelines for thedevelopment of an undergraduate curriculum [3].In 1996, Rochester Institute of Technology admitted the first students into its program [4], which thenled in 2001 to the first programs receiving ABET accreditation using the program criterion of Figure 1. Aswould be expected, evolution within the discipline continued, including the publication of the first bookof knowledge for software engineering (SWEBOK) in
