The key words usedin search engines include: leadership development in civil engineering, leadership in civilengineering, leadership in construction education, leadership and civil engineering curriculum.

leader and leadership,identifying that leadership is a process and a leader engages individuals in the process (Guthrie,Jones, Osteen, & Hu, 2013). Students also evaluate the role of followers in the leadershipprocess. Challenging students to consider personal values and beliefs about leadership, they areasked to design personal vision statements that will demonstrate their commitment to ongoingtechnical and leadership development. Professional outcomes include technical success, degreeprogram completion, resume development, and resume building. Individual outcomes includecongruence of values and actions.   Assessing the individual learning module, we recommend students write and justify theirpersonal definition of a leader

The first attempt was to utilizethe Perry Scheme of Intellectual Development which was based on student's attitude towardsknowledge. Our idea was that students in the Minor would trust more their "inner voices" andnot external authority and come to understand there were no right answers to

students to build on their strengths andovercome their weaknesses as they navigate their education.13A guiding principle for the IRE model is that students own the responsibility for their learning.At the beginning of each project cycle, students identify which outcomes will be addressedduring the project. Working with faculty, they determine which learning modes will be appliedand determine what types of evidence they will need to acquire in order to demonstrate outcomeattainment by the end of the project cycle. Learning activities include planning, resourceidentification, self-directed knowledge acquisition, peer conversation, help-seeking, reflection,and evaluation.15 Each project cycle concludes with the presentation of two reports: a
