design, and landscape designprograms are historically based on the studio model of education. However, studio-basedcurricula are an anomaly in construction education; there are only two construction programs inthe U.S. with a studio- or project-based curriculum. Despite this, construction managementprograms present an ideal environment in which to apply the studio pedagogical model. Thecomplexity of the construction industry and its processes and the fact that project-based learningis appropriate to a process that requires multiple players to collaborate to design, create, produce,and provide physical buildings underscores the appropriateness of this educational model.Studios are based on several key unique characteristics of their relative

, healthcare, residential, industrial, infrastructure etc.). The teams are formed basedon their listed interest (students with similar interest are grouped together). As further detailedlater in the paper, this problem-centered approach, is based on and consistent with theconstructivist educational assumption that encourages social and cognitive interactions [5], [6],[7] in the capstone class.Related literature discusses the concept of an integrated senior capstone course stressingparticipatory learning and creative problem solving [8]. In the past two years, senior capstonestudents have collaborated with the students from the Computer Graphics Technology (CGT)department. The CGT teams work with the design-build teams in a capacity of

manner that allowsfor continuous improvement [1, 2].In addition to being an accreditation requirement for engineering programs, assessment effortshelp educators plan forward their education process with robust sound methods and data, ratherthan arbitrary methods based on trials and errors. The challenge of any program assessmentprocess has always been the development of a structured, systematic, and effective process thatencompasses all stakeholders, and provides opportunity for continuous improvement, as poorlyconstructed assessments can lead to loss of time, money, and educators’ energy [3]. Systematicassessments, though challenging, are necessary for program improvement [2, 4]. With the moveof California State Polytechnic University, Pomona’s
