practicing engineers – to become the creative, innovative, and entre-/intrapreneurialthinkers and doers of the 21st century (Sheppard et al. 2015).2. ACTIVITIES, INITIATIVES, AND PROGRAMSEngineering education at the University of Ottawa goes back to the 1870’s (Hallett 2011). It tookmore than a century before the introduction of a formal option in engineering management intothe undergraduate programs of studies in engineering. This was followed in 1980 by theestablishment of a certificate in engineering management offered as a 5th year of business andmanagement courses following the undergraduate degree in engineering. A graduate diplomaprogram in engineering management was created in 1981 and this program later (1989) evolvedinto the current

In the future, data from additional undergraduatebasic engineering courses and major-related courses will be incorporated to help further validatethis methodology. In addition, correlating this data to results observed on standardized tests suchas the FE exam may shed additional light on the effectiveness of a quiz-only approach forstudent learning.References: 1.

ofEngineering’s operating budget. Element F can be supported in the long term with endowmentfunds. The only concern at this time is Element E since it is a high cost program and we have notfound a permanent source of funding. We are evaluating if Element F can substitute for ElementE and how to strengthen the social and professional integration components in the remainingElements. Given the home locations for many of the at-risk students (e.g., Guam), Element Emay be the only way that they can catch-up academically.ReferencesJones, S., Naegele, Z., and VanDeGrift, T. (2014).

model shows thebenefits this model incorporated into students’ learning.Introduction:With the advancement of the internet, the use of online modules as a form of learning has beendeveloping fast over the past decades. Some universities go with full online courses and othersgo to blended learning solutions. A flipped classroom is one way that allows for blendedlearning. Flipped classroom models have been widely used as an effective method to change theinteraction of the students and the instructor during lectures. Students learn the material at theirown time and at their own pace, and come to class prepared to interact and solve problems withthe instructor (R. Pierce and J. Fox , 2012; J. L. Bishop and M. A.
