to traditional approaches can increasestudents’ conceptual knowledge and their ability to transfer acquired knowledge to newersituations [1-3]. Furthermore, exposure to real-world challenges, especially when presented in anactive and practical learning environment increases both student interest and pedagogicaleffectiveness. The National Academy of Engineering (NAE) in its report, “Educating theEngineer of 2020,” contends that solving the Grand Challenges will require more than justproviding students with technical training. It argues that an engineering education must producegraduates who combine technical excellence with a multitude of other skills includingcommunication, teaming, ethical reasoning, and contextual analysis.

economic, environmental, social, political, ethical, health and safety, manufacturability, and sustainability?” The average score for this criterion was a 9.5 indicated a significant educational impact. The entire Perseus II project is directly aligned with this criterion. The fact that the project had an actual mission demonstration and engaged stakeholders and sponsors added Page 26.110.23 tremendously.(d) How did you participation in Perseus II impact your “ability to function on multidisciplinary teams?” This criterion scored a 10. All students indicated that they had significant positive impact on what is a critical skill

when all passengers ran toone side to gawk at bathers on a nude beach. This activity requires little class time yet reinforcesABET criteria that “students attain: (f) an understanding of professional and ethical responsibility (g) an ability to communicate effectively (h) the broad education necessary to understand the impact of engineering solutions in a global, economic, environmental, and societal context (j) a knowledge of contemporary issues”38Specifically, objectives (f) and (j) are often difficult to measure within the traditional curriculum.Thus each examination in the class included a short answer question requiring the students toidentify some set number of current issues related to ship dynamics

construction projects. 3. An ability to recognize ethical and professional responsibilities in engineering situations and make informed judgements, which must consider the ecological, environmental and geotechnical impacts of engineering solutions in the marine environment, and consider global, economic, environmental, and societal contexts.[1]From the educational planning standpoint, sophomore year is the best time for a student todevelop a comprehensive plan to complete the minor. It is always recommended for students todeclare the minor early so they can plan for the required courses. The MC minor requires 18credits of which nine (9) credits are obtained from three (3) core courses (En-7247, EN-7257,and EN-7262). These core courses

is to provide students with thenecessary advanced knowledge, research skills, creativity, ethics, critical thinking and problemsolving to be able to respond to engineering challenges and needs, of our ever-changing world,for professional competence and life-long inquiry-based learning. The primary educationalobjective of the PhD in Engineering Program is to produce engineers with terminal degrees tomeet the needs for highly educated engineers with advanced technical and research skills in theworkforce. Each of the eight emphasis areas has their own specific objectives. Specificobjectives of the Coastal Engineering emphasis area follow: To prepare students with advancedknowledge and skills in coastal engineering (including coastal natural

outcomes: 1. An ability to apply knowledge of mathematics, science, and engineering. 2. An ability to design a system, component, or process to meet desired needs within realistic constraints such as economic, environmental, social, political, ethical, health and safety, manufacturability, and sustainability. 3. A knowledge of contemporary issues. 4. Demonstrate the ability to apply probability and statistical methods to naval architecture and marine engineering problems.The contribution of the Ship Structures course to demonstration of these outcomes is subjectivelyevaluated in periodic course reviews involving all program faculty. In addition, numericalstudent performance on specific assignments and exams in the

this point has resulted in a unique designexperience within the mechanical engineering curriculum, demonstrated by the wide range ofABET student outcomes addressed throughout this project. The project definition assignmenttasks students with formulating an engineering problem definition given a range of requirementsand constraints, which involves ABET Criterion 3 [14], Student Outcome (c), an ability to designa system, component, or process to meet desired needs within realistic constraints such aseconomic, environmental, social, political, ethical, health and safety, manufacturability, andsustainability.

presentations, and prototype demonstrations. Thecourse goals are to develop the students’ ability to manage projects involving system design, test andimplementation. In these two courses, the students are expected to effectively manage their time and teamefforts to produce a finished and workable prototype at engineering standards and expectations. Progressformal reports, written reports and oral presentations constitute integral components of this coursesequence. Before beginning the projects, student teams are provided with adequate training in projectformulation, engineering ethics, management and resource analysis, performance goals and teamexpectations, public presentations of project work, and individual project supervision.

suchtopics as cost assessment, decision making, economic evaluation, engineering ethics, and projectplanning. The principal course activity, which extends over a period of seven weeks, involvesstudent design of a timber pier which must satisfy client and NDS1 specifications, and requirespreparation of cost estimates, a construction schedule, and detailed design drawings, all presentedto the client (their instructor) in the form of a written design report.We kick-off the fall semester with a brief course introduction and discussion of the nine-stepdesign process (after Hyman2) with special emphasis on Step 5: Concept Generation. To betterappreciate the entire design process (cradle to grave) as well as multidisciplinary aspects ofdesign, we then
