As a relatively new program, it is critical for us to betterunderstand our student population and how it mirrors (or not) national studies. The most directgoal for our work is to improve and validate our admissions model. From a practical and humanperspective, this goal leads to other sub goals revolving primarily around improved retention butalso addressing issues such as these:  Our program should provide access to an engineering career within the constraints of quality and performance. A significant percentage of our students come from high schools in relatively poor communities and they often do not have the same

These same skills,however, have been highlighted as lacking in new engineering graduates as they enter theworkforce[2], [3].This lack of preparedness for real-world problems that students face upon leaving school leads tosignificant frustration for both employer and employee. Students find themselves intimidated totackle the large, boundary-less projects in the working world[4], [5] and unable to navigate largeprojects due to a lack of professional skills in areas like teamwork, project management, andbusiness management[5], [6], [7].The WEF 2023 Future of Jobs Report indicates that an estimated 44% of workers’ skills will bedisrupted in the next five years and six in

The three pillars of sustainable development are social development,economic development and environmental restoration. A major challenge to this integration isadding to the workload of the existing curriculum. In some cases, introducing the new conceptsrequires the loss of essential course material. Consequently, many civil engineering departmentshave successfully integrated sustainable design principles through course modules, and projectbased learning3.
