diverseteams; to reflect and act ethically; to engage in lifelong learning; and to design in context.However, there are few courses in engineering curricula that could encompass all thesecompetencies in one single course. “Construction Regulations and Organizational Management”is a graduate/senior level course that is designed and introduced to the Civil Engineeringcurriculum with these objectives in mind. A Project-Based-Learning (PBL) course in nature, thefirst module of the course engages student teams to research on the engineering entrepreneurshipand the required regulations for starting a design/construction firm either in the United States orinternationally. As the course progresses, the students will make presentations on safety,environmental

. Typically, the objective is to design a device or process that has value to acustomer (user). The project begins by defining a performance problem associated with anapplication and ends with a design solution. The problem drives the learning required tocomplete the project. Managing the project requires the engineer to demonstrate effectiveteamwork, clear communication and the ability to balance the social, economic andenvironmental impacts of the project.” This description provides us with a good sense ofthe attributes of a project or students’ performance that need to be assessed. Based on the foregoing, it would be important to bear in mind that in any PrBLbased course, professors are mostly trying to assess learning in a practice-based
