Jeff is currently leading a campus-wide strategic planning process focused on creating more transforma- tive educational experiences for lifelong learners. Jeff first joined UW-Madison’s faculty in 1989 as an assistant professor in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, where he co-founded the Construction Engineering and Management Pro- gram and developed the construction curriculum. In addition, he has authored and co-authored papers on the subject of educating civil engineers. His body of work demonstrates his commitment to using emerging technology in the classroom to prepare the next generation of engineers and other students for the

Engineering (COE)wanted to teach eight of 10 courses. With the help of the Provost, a compromise was reachedallowing the COB to teach three of 10 courses while COE taught seven of 10 courses. Therevenue for the three COB courses goes entirely to the COB with all administrative costs coveredby the COE. In addition to the quality of the COB courses, another benefit of having three COBcourses in our engineering management program has been enhanced student enrollments. Ourprospective students are very impressed with the COB courses in our curriculum. I would verystrongly advise others who may be considering the development of an engineering managementprogram to work with their COB early on during the proposal phase to reach a compromiseregarding both

styles, it is imperative that students understand how changes ineducation will contribute to their long-term development. Changes are commonly met withresistance, but opposition can often be diffused if students have some say in the process.Creating an environment that is engaging and energizing will improve student’s understanding ofthe material and retention rates after transitioning into the work force. Although flippedclassrooms require an adjustment period, this learning approach allows instructors to preparestudents for problems outside the textbook.

. Manycolleges wait until the later stages of their programs to begin instruction in presentations. Thispractice leaves students and faculty with little time to promote, practice, and hone skills. Oralcommunication skills must be introduced and developed early, and not delayed until postgraduate or after they enter the workforce8. A high value has been placed on developing theseskills early in an undergraduate curriculum and when students have this early experience they aregiven a strong foundation for developing their presentations skills17. Late integration of oralcommunication education are deemed to be less effectively developed, according to surveyedacademics.

Each course is completed over an eight-week period in thepaced, asynchronous environment. This means that students post their assignments andparticipate in threaded discussions through Lotus Notes® databases. The fourth course isfollowed by an integrative comprehensive exam.
