and outcomes. The department’s adopted outcomes andobjectives are monitored by analysis of the FE results, alumni surveys, employer surveys, anddepartmentally developed assessment tools.The FE results are used extensively to monitor the ability of UT Martin engineering graduates toperform basic engineering and economic analysis. Secondary use involves using the results tomonitor for a basic understanding of ethics. This paper concentrates on the use of the FEexamination scores and problems associated with the use of those scores.CurriculumThe total hours required for the B.S.E degree are 128. In 1999, concentration area electives wereapproved and published in the University catalog. The total number of elective hours requiredwas set at 21

the domain of law, the first year of law school is essentially the accumulation of informa-tion that represents the terminology of law. Typical items included are: Using the law library;differentiating civil and criminal law; understanding the various court systems; mastering thecase system, and appreciating legal ethics. Two additional years then develop on this basis.Members of the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) have been advocating that engi-neers, if they are to obtain sufficient information from other domains so that they can createknowledge from their broad accumulation of information across multiple domains, must addhours to their undergraduate program of study. Ideally (to ASCE), engineering now becomes afive-year program
