enrollment trends, including: • Poorer instructional quality. Many faculty have become increasingly more interested in research and thereby less interested in teaching and laboratory instruction. As enrollments have increased, some faculty have turned away from detailed problem solving to easier ways to assess student performance. Finally, many faculty expect less from their students while, at the same time, continuing to inflate grades. • Less prepared engineering graduates. Poorer quality of instruction and lowered faculty expectations, coupled with an observation that fewer students are entering the university with hands-on experience, may result in a larger number of graduates that are not well
