needs. Our DA and IDA methods assess student (learning) outcomes satisfying the Page 23.230.3MET specific criteria are in coincidence with ETAC Criteria. It’s also to be noted however, thatthere is a considerable overlap between ETAC and MET specific criteria. Two methods –Direct and Indirect Assessment methods are used to assess the studentoutcomes of METs. The DA method uses semester exams, quizzes, projects, lab reports,independent study papers, and capstone design projects, and the IDA method uses end of thesemester self-assessment by students. As pointed out earlier, we need only the raw scores and thetest papers for this model but not

spatial skillsassessment in their final year. In order to incentivize participation, the assessment was offered asan extra credit assignment in their senior design (capstone) course.In this study, the PSVT:R taken in the first year is referred to as the entrance exam, while thePSVT:R taken in the final year is referred to as the exit exam.ResultsA total of 120 graduating engineering students (74 male, 46 female) from a variety of majors (61Mechanical, 42 Civil, 18 Other) participated in this study. Scores on the entrance exam (M =24.38, SD = 4.01) and exit exam (M = 24.84, SD = 3.89) are compared in Figure 1a. Differencesare not significant, t(119) = -1.248, p = .214, although mean and median test scores in the finalyear were slightly higher than

The 128 semestercredit hours derive from general education (50 hours), engineering core (51 hours), andengineering concentration (27 hours) requirements. The engineering concentration requirement isunique for each discipline. Thus, the courses that make up this requirement identify the disciplineof the degree candidate.Civil Discipline ConcentrationThe engineering core courses are listed in Table 1. Note the very first course in the list, ENGR101 Engineering Graphics. Historically, this course was the place where manual drafting, ormechanical drawing, was introduced
