Basedon the comments from the industry advisors, four tentative CAD and manufacturing relatedcourses were proposed as the requirement of the digital badge in CAD. This new digital badgeproposal will be presented to the industry advisory committee in the Spring 2019. Once thedepartment and the committee finalize the course details, the proposal will be submitted to thecollege for final approval.

exists about suchprograms. However, in order to create a program that would be the signature of the departmentand the center of its identity, the design team decided to design a program from the ground up,instead.Having made that decision, the committee members looked to the research literature to find asystem for designing such a program. While graduate programs in engineering education areincreasing in number, they are still relatively few. Worldwide, there are twenty-nine institutionsthat specifically offer engineering/STEM education doctoral programs (ASEE-SD and CELT,2019). As such, there is not a large body of established curricula to inform what and how PhDstudents in engineering education are taught.Our own department of engineering
