After each Outcome rating, Items 8 – 11also included an open text box to allow respondents to provide additional comments.Item 12 provided a list of the 10 ABET Civil Engineering Program Criteria. Respondents wereasked to rate the importance of each component to civil engineering education and the ease ofimplementation into the civil engineering curriculum (using the same 5-point Likert scale as wasutilized in Items 8 – 11). An open text box was also provided as part of Item 12. Finally, Item 13provided one more open text box and encouraged respondents to provide any additional commentsrelated to the importance and/or

for each student.In 2015-2016, the first experiment with multidisciplinary senior design was predicated on thesupposition that students would benefit from being enrolled in the senior design coursesequences appropriate to their majors. Therefore, the students participating in multidisciplinaryprojects did not enroll in a dedicated class but instead enrolled in the traditional sequences ofcourses (as shown in Table 1). The 2015-2016 cohort integrated students from multiple majorson an extra-curricular basis; students took on an additional design experience that supplementedtheir required course or worked with students enrolled in other classes. This effort met with asignificant lack of success and became a source of frustration for students

are youdoing to work with 10,000 students? It's not possible! You have to take a strategic approach. Soyou have to meet with … deans, associate deans, you have to know all of them. …Every departmenthad a director or a chair – you have to know them, which means you have to meet with them all atleast once a year. Every department has an undergraduate curriculum person and a graduatecurriculum person. You have to know them. Those roll in and out, so you have to stay on top of it.So you are going to meet all of them. And then the courses that you want to be integrated to, youhave to meet and know the faculty.[I4]"An important element of the strategic approach is to use a top-down approach to explain theimportance of ILI to University

ASCE developed and proposed changes to the CEPC following completion ofboth prior editions of the CEBOK.To manage change in the CEPC, ASCE has established a timeline to consider possible revisionsto the CEBOK and subsequent changes to the CEPC [3], including the CEBOK3. Many civilengineering programs may consider modifying their curriculum based on the CEBOK3,regardless of if or when ASCE actually proposes any changes to the CEPC or whether anychanges in the CEPC even occur based on the CEBOK3. Therefore, an important step inevaluating the CEBOK3 in terms of undergraduate education, whether considering accreditationor curricular design, is to

The main objective of the proposed model was to foster the potentialbenefits that arises from shared educational goals between different technical areas. Throughcoordination with an existing Architectural class, the project involved students in Architecture,Civil Engineering, and Construction Engineering. The senior project mimics an Integrated ProjectDelivery process that simulates the complete development of a commercial building, fromconceptual design to construction. Architecture students led the first phase of the conceptual designof the project, with Civil and Construction Engineering students setting constraints in term ofstructural efficiency

, the feedback comes more quickly. An author canusually see the feedback as soon as the reviewer provides it, rather than having to wait until theinstructor or TA is finished grading all the students. Finally, peer assessment forces students towrite in a way that their peers can understand. They can’t use shorthand that the instructor, withhis/her superior knowledge, is expected to decipher. They learn to write for an audience of theirpeers, which is exactly the skill they need for later in their careers. Peer assessment has beenshown to improve learning across the curriculum [1].Online peer-assessment systems perform the same basic functions, though they often havefeatures aimed at the types of courses taught by their designers, e.g., art

Alternately, replacing stand-alone courses in the fundamental areas of introduction toengineering, graphics, and introductory programming with an integrated two-course sequencewould allow for a common first year beneficial to all students. Additional motivations for therestructure included the yearning to enhance student potential for success in subsequent courses,and to deliver a more substantial, realistic first-year exposure to the engineering design process.Accordingly, a committee, comprised of representation from all J.B.

Increasingly, the Industrial Advisory Boardswill become an important source of industry trends to help define the skills needed for thegraduating engineer.At Baylor University, these skill requirements can be broken down in to five main areas. Firststudents need academic skills as broadly identified by ABET and the individual institution.While some standardization does exist, there is much each institution can control to make theexperience unique to their institution and to emphasize what is important for their programs.Second, professional skills are necessary so that the graduating engineer can function in

This may result in multiple solutions which dovetail together to moreeffectively meet the range of cooling needs at the mobile food bank. For instance, one team maydesign a system which works well up to 100 degrees, and another team may have generated asolution which is only appropriate for 100 degrees or higher. These two systems would likelyintegrate nicely.It would be interesting to integrate this design project into the capstone curriculum in some way.For example, one of the teams could be eligible to continue their design the following year astheir capstone project.

As most, if not all, of the projects focusedintensely on the development of a product, students were regularly challenged to design forspecific needs and to prototype, as well as learn from failure and integrate components into awhole. Students generally had significant confidence increases in their engineering abilities as aresult of their participation in the REU, and we attribute this to the specific and applied nature ofthe research projects, as opposed to other REU projects where the applicability of the subjectmatter may be more theoretical and further removed from an everyday product with

The purpose of this paper is to highlight a newapproach to learning that goes beyond the proverbial "checking boxes" to provide anapproach for demonstrating the integration of abilities and reflection. This innovative andexperimental approach offers three unique attributes. First, it is competency-based in thatstudents are required to demonstrate mastery of meeting core innovative competenciesthrough submission of an artifact (“transdisciplinary-doing”) and reflection
