isin line with the department’s mission to prepare the next generation of civil engineeringprofessionals. Each selected SHRP 2 product has become an inherent part of the course module.These were taught immediately after the relevant theoretical content was presented in the course.Furthermore, the authors re-emphasized these concepts using SHRP 2 as a tool for a seamlesstransition from theory to practice. A pre-survey and post-survey were conducted to determine theimpact of introducing SHRP 2 modules within the courses. The results of the pre-and post-survey are presented. A detailed framework on how to seamlessly integrate SHRP 2 productsthrough the entire civil engineering curriculum in other institutions is also presented.INTRODUCTION

This adds a further dimension to the typical advisor roleof academic guidance, career direction, moral support, and encouragement. The advisor nowbecomes a research manager and mentor as well.In many cases, this trend has led to the integration of undergraduate research directly into theacademic curriculum. After graduation many of the students will be involved in the application,dissemination, and creation of knowledge, or in other words research. As a result it becomes anatural extension of the classical inquiry oriented curriculum to include aspects of research
