that the department’s quest to slay theHydra—fully infusing the program with the BOK2 outcomes—could not be accomplished byselectively tweaking courses. Rather, as this paper discusses, a complete review of every aspectof the program was necessary, including the educational objectives, the program outcomes, andthe objectives for each required course. Ultimately, it was a two-year process of programassessment, evaluation and modification to fully implement the BOK2.I. IntroductionA.

This effort resulted ina total of thirteen program outcomes, which cover the breadth of the principles included in theBOK2.In 2011 two external forces have resulted in changes to the BSCE program. The University ofArkansas is strictly enforcing the statewide ‘core curriculum’ for Arkansas institutions of highereducation. Formerly, the engineering programs at the University of Arkansas enjoyed anexception to the state core requirements by specifying humanities and social science (H&S)courses based on an interpretation of ABET EC2000 criteria. This allowed advanced-level H&Scourses in the curriculum. With the enforcement of the statewide core, all H&S courses arelimited to
