. One flyer, labeled “Get Your PhD For Free,” laid out funding options for PhD studentsand ways to obtain them. We were surprised to learn how many undergraduate students were notaware of the funding that comes with getting a PhD in an engineering discipline, and this flyergenerated great interest. All newly developed materials were utilized in each component of theoverall strategy, and in other forms of advertisement commonly utilized across higher education(such as ASEE First Bell).Digital MarketingAs marketing of services through digital technologies continues to show success in acceleratingproduct value to consumers (i.e. the value of a particular educational program to prospectivestudents), we enlisted the help of a world-renowned

A score is given for each criterion and then all criteria scores are totaled andused as part of the overall admissions evaluation.Faculty dialogues, meetings, and educational emails were used to increase implementation of therubric across the school beginning with the admissions cycle for students matriculating in the Fallof 2019. The rubric was updated for the admissions cycle for students matriculating in the Fall of2020 based on continued feedback of faculty users, and review by premier experts in the field ofholistic graduate admissions.

—is of paramountimportance.The importance of communication within the engineering industry has prompted an ideologicalshift in higher education—especially regarding the skills engineering students should possess.Learning outcomes of engineering students are moving from emphasis on students’ technicalabilities towards what are termed ‘soft skills’ that complement technical expertise—one suchskill being successful communication. In fact, the main accrediting board for the Engineeringfield—the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET)—listed the students’“ability to communicate effectively with a range of audiences” (ABET, 2017) as one of its maincriteria for institutions seeking accreditation.

developers invariably envision a particular client group to serve as target forthe program that they are developing. Typically, their view of this group is one characterized bya set of characteristics that include assumptions of need, student goals, age and experience, andlocation among others. Of course, other important factors are also considered during newprogram design. These include institutional and originating department missions, geographicregion served, perceptions of need, advisory council input, leadership directions and more.In prior papers, delivered at the 2016[5] and 2019[6] ASEE conferences the authors addressedthe development process for the recently approved Doctor of Technology (DTech) offered by thePolytechnic Institute at Purdue
