reducethe number of credit hours to obtain a bachelor’s degree2,3. To overcome these challenges,educators must be creative and implement multiple topics and techniques into a single course.This is especially true when trying to teach non-technical engineering skills such asprofessionalism, communication, and economics as articulated in the ASCE Body ofKnowledge4. Activities such as design projects, field trips, and laboratory experiments are oftenused to help provide a well-rounded education. The objective of this research was to explore the design-build process in a series ofhorizontal design courses. Design-build is a common project delivery technique in the structuralengineering industry. Designers and contractors work as a single entity

Recommendations are offered for meeting these challenges andimproving evaluation capabilities in engineering education programs.BackgroundThe last decade in engineering education has seen considerable interest and work in the teachingand learning aspects of engineering education programs. Faculty across the country haveengaged in systematic investigations of programs, revised curricula, piloted and institutedalternative teaching strategies, and developed educational competencies for the technical andprofessional practice components of engineering education programs1,2,3.The focus on competencies has inevitably led to the need to develop and measure
