ABETaccredited degrees in civil engineering (students can select an environmental concentration), Page 12.773.4mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, computer engineering, and biomedicalengineering. The college also has a very strong program in acoustical engineering wherestudents can earn both an engineering degree and a music degree from the University ofHartford’s Hartt School. This is a unique program which attracts students from around thecountry while most of the other engineering students come from Mid Atlantic and New Englandstates.For the spring 2007 semester, 60 students registered for the Engineering by Design course ofwhich 53 are

’ recall of technical content and their use of thesevideos. In addition, we will discuss how the students interacted with these online modules asassessed by student surveys and focus groups. Finally we will include the benefits and costsfrom the faculty and curriculum perspective. This will allow us to make suggestions forapplying this technique to environmental engineering design courses and to other engineeringdisciplines.Materials and MethodsDescription of Design CourseThe study took place at a large, mid-Atlantic research-oriented university. Sixteen students, allseniors in Civil Engineering, were enrolled in the environmental engineering design courseduring Fall 2013. The students were asked to design a water treatment system to remediate
