the students are before even they graduate and they become productive rightfrom the first day on their job.In 1996 we were cited a weakness in our Capstone Project that we are not integrating socialaspect, economic impact, environmental consideration, and ethical considerations. Although thedesign was robust in most of the Capstone Projects but these four aspects were lacking. Afterconsulting the ABET reviewer who agreed in advance that if these four issues were addressed bythe industrial personnel, the weakness may be taken care of. It is because of this reason that welaunched a course 16.400 Engineering Topics which is being offered under my supervision bythe industrial giants of our region, where all these 4 aspects are being addressed

careers infor-profit or nonprofit organizations, or to further their education in graduate school.The educational objectives of the General Engineering program are to produce graduates who,during the first few years of professional practice will:  Be employed by industry or government in the fields, such as, design, research and development, experimentation and testing, manufacturing, and technical sales.  Assume an increasing level of responsibility and leadership within their respective organizations.  Communicate effectively and work collaboratively in multidisciplinary and multicultural work environments.  Recognize and understand global, environmental, social, and ethical contexts of their work

An initial evaluationwould be that this class needs to improve its performance on the first two categories (Content &Sources, and Structure & Form).However, ABET has a specific definition of evaluation which is presented in its criteria [1]. “Evaluation is one or more processes for interpreting the data and evidence accumulated through assessment

%shows a demand for an interdisciplinary engineering major. Interestingly, a large segment listedfinancial aspects as their main reason for choosing the major (17.4% vs. 7% in the literature)[7].This shows that our Co-op program is an essential and beneficial part of the BELM major. Adesire to improve the world with 10.7% could be related to the ethical goal of engineering toserve society by improving the standard of living or to the BELM option of biomedicalconcentration. The 32.2% segment of students who cited job characteristics might be attracted tothe new bachelors of science in mechanical and electrical engineering which are approximatelyfour years rather than five years for BELM and so less expensive. A distinctive feature of theBELM
