Curricular Pathway in Environmental EngineeringAbstractCurrently, students majoring in civil engineering at Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology(RHIT) do not get exposure to discipline-specific course content in environmental engineeringuntil the final quarter of Year 3. We’ve noticed that many students we’ve advised come into theirfirst year with an interest in environmental engineering, but they tend to choose different pathsbefore they even have a course in environmental engineering. We developed a plan that re-envisions the pathway for the environmental engineering curriculum. We evaluated differentscenarios of curriculum pathways to provide students with exposure to environmentalengineering content earlier in their academic career. Through this

Ability to Understand Instruction: Language comprehension, ability of student to understand what the learning task is and how to learn it. For engineering classes, language comprehension may mean mathematics background.One experimental test of Carroll’s theory is presented in [6].Carroll’s definition of aptitude as the time required to learn, rather than the ability to learn hasfundamental implications for engineering education, particularly for retention in an era ofreduced math skills.

Despiteincreased budget allocation for Research, Development, Testing, and Evaluation (RDT&E),addressing other nations’ threats remains a significant challenge.
