Through the preliminary courses, in the fieldstudents will collect information regarding performance aspects of buildings connected to designissues. Then, they will feed the information into an ad hoc repository. A major framing elementof the content in the database will be: a. the performance of the infrastructure under high environmental stress conditions, and b. how this performance can be either

These courses were divided into threetracks for the purposes of providing specific topics of interest to different departments. Track A(primarily Civil, Mechanical, and Aerospace) focused on mechanics, and graphics instructionincluded AutoCAD and SolidWorks. Track B (primarily Electrical and Computer Science)focused on C++ programming and received no graphics instruction. Track C (primarilyChemical and Petroleum

What isknown is that many schools are attempting to address this SLO in a manner they see fit based ontheir interpretation of what SLO #9 means.Similar to the ACCE, the National Architectural Accreditation Board (NAAB) [2] requires anumber of student performance criteria (SPC) that share likeness to ACCE requirements. Inparticular, the following NAAB SPCs require architecture programs to demonstrate studentachievement of the following: B.10: Understanding of the fundamentals of building costs, which must include project financing methods and feasibility, construction cost estimating, construction

All of the requisite materials – materials, equipment, tools, substructure and superstructure – must be reviewed thoroughly before the student can proceed. Once this evaluation is completed, the student may repeat the process after a two-week time period has passed. This two-week time interval can be tailored to any period. The purpose of this hiatus is to avoid the retention of the results the students have just received [9].B. Score range: from 60 to 80 If a student earns +60 to +80 at first trial, indicating that he/she missed only a few steps, the system will still encourage him/her (though not mandatorily so) to review only related information

Based on a debriefing session with students followingthe competition, students commented the time commitment for the project was not adequateenough to finish off the submission completely.The teams’ estimate to the target price was very impressive with the 58 compliant bids in ouranalysis for this criteria (Figure 1).

underperformance and emphasis of researchover teaching. Yet, a tenured position is coveted and sought by many aspiring assistantprofessors in the US education system, and that includes faculty from civil engineering andconstruction disciplines.This paper aims to display the variability in perceptions of tenure requirements among assistantprofessors in civil and construction programs between universities of different researchactivities, and identify their perceived impediments towards obtaining tenure. The motivation forthis research is to bring to surface some of the concerns assistant professors have relating to thetenure process.Faculty from ACCE and ABET accredited programs in tenure-track positions were identifiedthrough an online search, and were
