environmental engineering program needed to overcome these obstacles tocreate a valid assessment tool. Previous program surveys did not amply address specific studentconcerns. Those surveys had poorly designed questions and answer formats. Survey distributionhad relied on students to retrieve and return surveys themselves. Data analysis had consisted ofonly computing mean values and compiling comments. Results of the surveys had suffered fromlow response rates, biases, and demographic underrepresentation.A graduate-student committee designed a survey considering the aforementioned problems.“The improvement of research quality” was the overall survey theme, and four subtopics --research resources, research preparation, research views and attitudes, and

The activelearning style typically used to teach first-year engineering design courses may be particularlywell suited for students with ADHD.

Recent projections show that there must be a 34%increase of students graduating in STEM fields within the next decade to allow the US to remaincompetitive on the world stage.

The goal of aprofessional practice program should be to prepare students for engineering practice in allits aspects: technical and social. Resistance to incorporating professional practice into anexisting curriculum takes many forms. This includes a natural resistance to change andinadequate rewards to faculty for teaching and advising team-based projects, especiallysponsored senior design (capstone) projects. For those institutions interested in aprofessional practice program, there are a number of other academic issues to beovercome. For example, there may be concerns about teaching credit for project
