By responding to these educational needs, universitiescan better prepare students for the challenges of the 21st-century technological landscape,ultimately contributing to their success and the advancement of the engineering profession. Theprojects and course modules being developed by California State University San Marcos and theUniversity of Utah serve as models for other institutions aiming to enhance their engineeringprograms and better serve their students and society.References[1] S.

The analysis of available undergraduate-level coursework suggests thatstructural engineering programs do not prioritize the instruction of timber-related courses,resulting in limited timber design education. These results provide clarity on the need foradditional curriculum to ensure graduating structural engineers are prepared to work with masstimber elements. Additionally, the available course inventory and interview results suggest thatincreased prioritization of timber courses and resources is needed to support a growth ininstruction of mass timber within the structural engineering discipline.IntroductionAmong

Offering retention programs is valuable, but if students do not attendor participate, they will not receive the maximum benefits that these programs can provide.Students are more likely to participate in retention programs if they feel a sense of communitywithin the institution [9].

impact of library services.Mission, Objective, and IndicatorsThe literature [1], [4], [7] makes the argument that data collected must have a use and an endgoal in mind; not just collected for the sake of collection. Markless and Streatfield [9] go intodetail for a framework to begin to think about data collection purposefully. Their approach hasthree steps – having or writing a mission, developing objectives, and determining indicators.Step one is having or writing a mission statement [9]. Library systems, colleges, and universitieshave different and unique mission statements. For this step it is not necessary to create somethingnew just using what exists as a place to begin. The mission statement(s) should act as a focusarea for where the
