ASCE President in 2004, envisioned a practice oriented degree in200715. She states: “The master of professional engineering management is designed to meet the needs of those who are already at work in professional practice—to provide them with the professional skills and knowledge they need to succeed in the 21st-century workplace without requiring them to place their careers on hold while they complete graduate school. This master’s program will provide engineers with the knowledge and skills now required of engineering professionals—specifically, an understanding of globalization; of the importance of ethics and professionalism; of how to work effectively with diverse, multinational teams; and

Level 5, Synthesis, now reads "Design asystem or process to meet desired needs within such realistic constraints as economic,environmental, social, political, ethical, health and safety, constructability, andsustainability.” Creativity/innovation could be encouraged by adding this text “…and forsome apply creative/innovative principles and tools.”Outcome 9 for Level 6, the E level, now states "Evaluate the design of a complex system,component, or process and assess compliance with customary

of the graduate engineeringprocess and intended to address professional skills such as practicing effective time management,gaining familiarity with ethical issues and practices, and learning strategies for attending andleading meetings. We addressed these skills through articulating and modeling behaviors thatmay not, at first, seem to belong in a communication framework. For example, it might soundobvious, but we told students to bring their calendars and a notebook and pen to every meeting.We also created a form that incorporated both writing milestones and task-related milestones totrack progress and completion of task components and the entire task. Beginning in the secondsemester of the program, both the writing coach and the faculty
