In industrial scenarios in particular, it isoften important that experimental measurements be planned and executed in manner that causesminimal disruption of operations in addition to being carried out with sufficient accuracy for theresults to address the interests of the business.Development of these skills in the course of baccalaureate engineering technology programsaddresses three of the outcomes from the Criterion 3.

In response to the newest body of knowledge, the RTBCommittee is preparing an action plan to do just that.This paper summarizes the changes made to the CE-BOK between the 2nd and 3rd editions andexplains how the CE-BOK is and always has been the foundation of ASCE’s RTB effort. It willexplore how ASCE has historically used the CE-BOK as a catalyst to influence change in theprofessional preparation of civil engineers, and how it may be used in the future. Potentialhurdles to implementation will be shared, particularly considering significant changes that havebeen made. For example, CE-BOK3 has added an affective domain to some of its traditionalcognitive outcomes, which no doubt will present a challenge for implementation

The most significant increases were observedin engineering skills because initial confidence levels in this area were low. A majority ofstudents reported increased interest in STEM fields and 100% of students (during the 2018cohort) reported that increasing their confidence in science, math and engineering contributed tothis intensified interest. This program evaluation reviews the program’s objectives, format,teaching tools, student feedback and plans for future programming and assessment.IntroductionThe need for STEM-educated workers is long-standing and well-established [1, 2].

Suchcourses normally involve expenses for students in terms of textbooks, equipment, and software.The expenses for course textbooks and materials can be quite high. These include prices rangingto over $300 for individual textbooks in engineering [1], [2], to $700 per semester [3], toupwards of $1200 a year on average for civil engineering programs [4].

The decreasein expectancy belief was expected since during the first year of college, students are transitioningfrom high school to harder college-level courses. The decrease in value belief was not easy toexplain. The paper notes (bold added): “What is more difficult to explain, however, is the finding that at the end of the year, students reported enjoying engineering less and viewed it as less important and useful than they did at the beginning of the year.

While the expectation in academia isoften to publish research, the expectation in industry is typically to implement this research intoactionable plans.
