cultivate, as itis a fundamental element of a successful engineering career.60,61 Lastly, engineers mustdemonstrate their depth of knowledge by communicating their ideas and design decisions to theirrelative audience.Communication of ideas and professional skilldevelopment: The philosophies of EngineeringEducation began to grow and drasticallytransform in the mid 1990’s, valuing a morewholesome engineer. Surely the focus continuesto include the traditional solidly rooted STEMskills, but also includes professionaldevelopment skills such as: communication,teamwork, global and ethical awareness, andskills for life-long learning.12 In addition tolearning the foundations of design, helping futureengineers master such professional skills as teamwork

granting Associate's degrees. 40 Also since 1990, many 4-year collegesadded ET graduate degrees (Masters’ & Ph. D). So while ET upper-class markets were alreadysmall (3-6,000 per course) & dropped even lower after 1985; it was less than in 2-year programs.Thus fewer majors per program were partly offset by an increase in the number of programs. 41Textbook publishers overlooked this steady increase in the number of accredited ET programs!The author attributes this to the fifth & final "big event" that limited ET text choice: reducedcompetition due to consolidation/ merging of educational publishers (College & K-12), startingaround 1980 & continuing for the 30+ years since. The mergers came in response to the “third/fourth events
Page 23.1172.11IEA’s “Graduate Attributes and Professional Competencies” is both scholarly and masterful inhow it addresses a very complex topic. As such, the authors have attached the entire 15-pagedocument as an appendix to this paper. Of particular interest to the reader should be the table inSection 6 – “Professional Competency Profiles.” The yellow highlights were added by thispaper’s authors.ABET, Inc.ABET was founded in 1932 as the Engineers' Council for Professional Development (ECPD), anengineering professional body dedicated to the education, accreditation, regulation, andprofessional development of the engineering professionals and students in the United States. In1936, ECPD evaluated its first engineering degree programs. Ten years

Mastery GradingHow can grading be oriented towards recognizing students’ own unique sets of assets andchallenges, while also still encouraging and rewarding their growth? Mastery grading notablydiffers from other grading systems in that grading requires tracking each student’s progresstowards achieving mastery in a number of areas, whether skill- or content-oriented [152],[166]–[168]. In this schema, instructors determine the areas where students are expected to attainmastery, i.e. competencies, and create a series of assessments where students have theopportunity to prove they have mastered one or more areas. Generally assessments may also bedesigned to allow students to continue to retry the same assessment until they can perform at
