Forward thinking administrators encouraged the development of amore flexible degree program that could complement the resources allocated to the Partnership.Hence, CMU’s MET Program was launched in January 2010. Few faculty and small studentnumbers, along with limited resources designated for a single program, forced an innovativeapproach in developing the curriculum for the MET Program.It is interesting to note that CMU is one of only nine universities nationwide that offers degreesin engineering (E) and engineering technology (ET) under a single umbrella.1 Although the twodegrees are granted by separate institutions, the common umbrella is that the programs areadministered under the

Students were prompted to discuss personal experiences prior to college,content in the first year CE/EvE/AE course, and other college courses that impacted thisdecision. Students were also instructed to “Cite specific aspects of CE/EvE/AE and being aC/Ev/A engineer that appeal to you and do not appeal to you.”The essays were generally about two pages long. The assignment was worth ten percent of theoverall course grade. It was graded on whether or not the students fully answered each question,not based on their specific responses (such as

Therelationship between the level of funded research and PhD production is the same for theefficient and less efficient programs.
