It addresses the allocation ofeducational responsibilities between the academic programs and the professional community.Three major outcomes are grouped into three categories: Foundational, Technical, andProfessional, assisting readers in understanding the current needs of civil engineering educationon the undergraduate level in preparing graduates for graduate school and/or professional fields.One of the outcomes of the BOK2, in the Professional category is the Globalization initiative. On the other hand, at the Metropolitan State University of Denver (MSU Denver) in the pastdecade, the Civil Engineering Technology program Industry

Equality in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics proved to beeffective venues for recruitment whereas the signatories of the American Society of EngineeringEducation Deans Diversity Initiative Letter proved ineffective. My perspectives of why this mayhave been the case are described in this paper. Overall, my dissertation study supported thefinding that the sexual minority community of tenure-track and tenured faculty members remainshard-to-reach, but some members of the group are willing to speak out so that the communitycan continue to gain understanding and support within our discipline.Index Terms—Diversity, sexual minorities, snowball sampling/respondent-driven samplingIntroductionIncreasing diversity among faculty, students, and

Engineering Graphic and Multi-Media Design Cal Poly State University SLO SUNY CantonAbstractEngineering and art were not always completely separate disciplines. Take Leonardo da Vinci(born 1452) for example, who was equally as great an artist as an engineer. In recent years, therehas been a resurgence in efforts to bring these disciplines more closely together by adding thearts back into STEM education – or moving from STEM (science, technology, engineering andmath) to STEAM (science, technology, arts, engineering, and math). Engineering may give youthe skills to design and build, but the arts will give you the ability to design and build for thehuman condition.This paper describes an
