A non-dominated set of 24 efficientengineering colleges was identified and compare with the set of less efficient colleges. Therelationship between the level of funded research and PhD production is the same for theefficient and less efficient programs. There is a marked difference between the efficient set andothers in the relationship between BS and MS production and funded research.

. Research indicates that the execution of effective public meetings can have a greateffect on public policy and projects. Tepper 2 found that well-run public meetings canhave a positive impact. Dewey 3 postulated that keeping a watchful, critical eye onpublic officials is a key aspect of the democratic process. The public meeting is centralto effective governmental processes, and civil engineers are expected to lead andparticipate in this forum. However, this skill set is not prioritized in engineeringcurriculum, making presenting to a potentially angry public difficult for a new engineer.Thus, a curriculum that teaches students how to lead public meetings will benefit both theindividual students and the civil engineering program as a whole.

We also found that the more seniorstudents and the students with work experience overwhelmingly valued such material.As a follow-up to this research, we surveyed approximately one hundred engineers in a variety ofhiring positions in industry to determine their view on the inclusion of public policy in anengineering curriculum. Among the questions included in the survey, we asked, “Do you believethat engineering students should be exposed to public policy issues as part of their education?”We also addressed a number of other issues, including: 1) How do these engineers define publicpolicy? 2) Should the
