In this effort, CFD recruited external evaluatorswho had extensive program assessment experiences from the broader engineering educationcommunity to conduct two successive, comprehensive program evaluations for the ETW inSummer 2021 and Summer 2022. To diminish confirmation bias in the evaluation efforts, CFDintentionally sought external evaluators who had no prior connection to CFD or the ETW.

We are usingan emerging method for quantifying the complexity of these programs called CurricularAnalytics. This method involves treating the prerequisite relationships between courses as anetwork and applying graph theoretic measures to calculate a curriculum’s complexity. In Year 1,we collected 494 plans of study representing five engineering disciplines (i.e., Mechanical, Civil,Electrical, Chemical, and Industrial) across 13 institutions - spanning a decade.

engineering student, the first point the AIrecommended for consideration was “curriculum compatibility,” saying that “Engineeringcourses often have a strict sequence of prerequisites. Ensuring that the courses you take abroadwill be recognized by your home institution is crucial. This might require detailed planning anddiscussions with academic advisors” (OpenAI, 2024). In summary, both academic reports andbroader conversations suggest that curricular complexity can be a challenge for students studyingabroad in engineering. However, no studies have attempted to measure this relationship, whichwe wanted to explore in our own context at Purdue University.Characterizing the Complexity of the Curriculum With the aim of providing metrics to support

wanted to ensure that students develop skills in not only project management but alsoworking in teams. The literature shows that Project Management Education needs to include apractical, hands-on project where students can use the theory they are learning to plan, manage,and execute a project with real stakeholders. Van der Horn and Killen found in their research inproject management education that courses in project management require more than justknowing the theory but rather having “lived experiences” and challenges for effective learning[1]. In addition, input from the university’s and department’s advisory boards demand thatstudents have project management skills that they can employ straight out of school.As part of redefining the course
