A few of these students expressed interest in pursuinga career in environmental engineering with the remaining having a general interest insustainability. The class counted for three credits with no laboratory component and met twice aweek for eighty minutes. This course was offered for the second time in the spring of 2015, andat that point, few pieces or equipment were available for conducting traditional water qualitylabs. Therefore, the lessons described in this paper were designed to be inexpensive and easy toimplement with minimal facilities. As at many other institutions, this marked the first time firststudents were presented water treatment technologies in a formalized setting.The series of lessons

first-year students at CU near the beginning of their secondsemester in spring 2009, only 11% of the EVEN majors indicated that their understanding ofengineering as a career was “very clear” before they enrolled; 7% were “not at all clear”; theaverage rating was 3.2 on a scale of 1 to 5 (very clear). The primary sub-discipline areas ofinterest among first year EVEN students at CU has changed significantly over the past 4 yearsthat we have collected this data. In 2006, 34% of the students were interested in air and 34% inwater; in 2009 this shifted to 37% interest in energy, 23% water, 14% remediation, and only 5%air. To retain students in environmental engineering, it may be helpful to highlight the interfaceof their interest areas with the

Acrosswalk map was constructed to highlight how graded events are leveled through a student’sacademic career (Figure 1). We found that the number of graded events with a technicalcommunication component incrementally increase each year through a student’s academicprogression within the major. Further, the body of technical communication events within themajor transition from individually assessed, relatively ‘low stakes’, primarily written events inthe earlier academic courses

The assessment also considers how general education is applied and evaluated in the engineering courses.
