disciplines are not obviously aligned. The common engineeringteaching paradigm divides complex problems into many pieces which students are then taught tosolve independently, all the while anticipating that eventually, they will “be able to develop asolution by combining them…Eventually...the effort involved in learning about the small piecesis so overwhelming that we can longer synthesize the original problem–the parts become moreimportant than the whole.”1 Further, the engineering curricular focus on solving “one problem ata time,” assuming a singular answer or solution, stands in direct contrast to “the history ofmodern technology and society in all its vital messy complexity.”2 As Charles Vest, formerPresident of MIT writes, “There are two

Most agree that a strong assessmentprogram must include an evaluation of Student Learning Outcomes (SLOs). Since the advent ofABET2000, assessment of SLOs has become a critical component of program assessment inengineering, technology, and computer science programs.
