The program needs to provide distance learning options or utilizes otherunique delivery systems while limiting residency requirements (cutting cost for out of statetuition). Young constructors are also likely to have less fear of returning to academics.Continuing education is becoming known as providing value to an employee. The ultimate goalwould be that a graduate degree is important to their career; it could make them stand out abovethe others. The program must then provide the ability to be completed with minimal interferenceof work. They can not quit their jobs and attend school full time as a residential student

Indeed, study-abroad and project-abroad experiencesare increasingly viewed as important for engineering students’ careers. Assessing the studentlearning outcomes of such programs can benefit (a) the students, as they engage in self-reflectionand communication about their experience, (b) the study-abroad program itself, for continualimprovement, and (c) the engineering education community at large, as it seeks effectivemethods and models for preparing engineers for their work.
