Recognizing that more students wantbreadth in their undergraduate education, and that many transfer into Colleges of Engineeringand/or may arrive less prepared to study engineering, the curriculum needs to be less dense andmore flexible. Changes to the curriculum should include reducing the number of requiredcourses and reducing the prerequisite chain and encouraging diversity of learning opportunities.We should continue to develop the evolving concept of international engineering programs, andcontinue to consider 3-year

To this end,the use of rubrics can be very worthwhile for both the students and the instructor.
