Additionally, CEPincludes a course in Routing Concepts and Protocols as part of the program.The Routing course offered at our institution is based on Routing Protocols and Concepts ofCEP. The base text book is 12. However, it is substantially complemented with material from 4, 5,7 . The course covers interior gateway routing and includes both intra-domain static routing anddynamic routing protocols. Students study how routers discover remote networks and determinethe best path or paths to them. They design

It was then that I grewangry with myself that I had allowed one man to create so much grief in my life. I knew there had to be abetter way. I never wanted anyone else to experience the pain I had gone through. I began to seek outways to help other minority and women engineering students.

Through discussions with our Industrial Advisory Board, we developeda list of leadership characteristics important in engineering practice which constitutes thisworking definition.Although there are team experiences in most of our courses, we have designated one course ineach semester from the second semester of the sophomore year through graduation in which tofocus on and assess leadership skills. In each team experience in these courses, students use thelist of leadership characteristics as a basis for giving feedback to their teammates.

To do so presupposes the existence of data gathered, extracted,and analyzed with the intent to report, on an individual program basis, program impact and/orintervention efficacy. The paucity of such data proved to be a barrier to addressing thesequestions in their entirety; not only for this current work, but for other work seeking to similarlyassess trends in future faculty development program design, outcomes, and impact.
