Direct instruction onregulatory basics was introduced, and consensus standards were integrated into capstoneprojects, strengthening the assessment of Student Outcome 2. To address gaps in hands-on skillsidentified in Student Outcome 6, Arduino-based labs, previously limited to capstone courses,were incorporated earlier into the curriculum, including lower-division courses. On-demandworkshops were also introduced to further enhance students' practical engineering skills. In ourreport, we also highlighted the BAC’s role in curriculum alignment and course assessment,alongside its contributions to sponsoring capstone projects, organizing company tours, andparticipating in capstone showcase events.
