engineering curriculum entirely. In fact, this has been the trendnationwide as many university power programs have declined in recent years.[4] At ColoradoSchool of Mines we are working to reverse the trend of diminishing interest among U.S. studentsin the electric power industry.Deregulation during the 1990’s caused tumultuous change for the energy sector. During theseturbulent times the utility sector also largely neglected its need to cultivate technical expertise.Reorganization of the industry caused many of the technically-oriented jobs to disappear. At thesame time, fewer students were studying power engineering, because they found the “glamorousand exotic (and quite often better paying)” high-tech areas of electrical engineering to be

pick up and grade randomly selected homework problems andcheck the rest for completion. Problems of copying and inappropriate collaboration still exist, butnonetheless this approach’s monitoring and feedback generally are helpful. A difficulty is thatfeedback is limited to only the selected problem(s) and to the degree that the professor expendstime writing comments on the homework.Students still seek help with homework during professors’ office hours, but that practice hastended to evolve to the posting of solutions. Factors affecting both professors and students havecontributed to this trend. Professors spend more time conducting research and raising funds, andstudents’ jobs can make it difficult to use office hours. Postings can occur

demographics and trends in the labor market continue to remain an unwaveringissue. Currently, there is a demand in the U.S. to produce qualified students, both at the K-12 andpostsecondary levels with suitable STEM transferable skills and a knack for scientificexploration and innovation through engineering design to aid in the growth and enrichment ofthe U.S.’s economy. In 2004, the National Science Foundation noted that half of the economicgrowth within the U.S. over the past 50+ years is credited to the scientific innovation of theSTEM workforce, which represents a minute 5% of the overall U.S. workforce.1 In order to strengthen the K-12 STEM pipeline and workforce, investments in outreachand student development are continually being

EAC GeneralCriteria.* Thus, while UCSD offers the twelve courses specified in the NCSEA curriculum, theprogram is not subject to any explicit accreditation standards for its structural engineeringcontent.* The relevant ABET policy is stated in paragraph I.C.4.c.(2) of the ABET Policy and Procedure Manual, as follows:“If a program name implies specialization(s) for which Program Criteria have been developed, the program mustsatisfy all applicable Program Criteria.“11Given the inability of most baccalaureate civil engineering programs to provide all requiredcoursework for structural engineering practice, structural engineering firms with more than tenemployees now hire primarily at the master’s level. For this reason, in our definition
