Finally, RCM inherently rewards academic units who are able to generate revenue andcontrol costs, while inherently punishing academic units who are either unable to generate enoughrevenue or appropriately contain costs. Central administration’s ability to manage this type ofdynamic is necessary, and this type of situation should afford the institution the opportunity toexamine ways in which under-performing academic units can redesign courses, programs,research agendas, etc. in ways that attract greater revenue and/or contain costs.RCM and its use in the Purdue School of Engineering and Technology at IUPUI In the Purdue School of Engineering and Technology at

Part ofthe assessment process was also to make sure proper documentation is done for the tools, as wellas the results and analysis of the data collected. This not only helps document the assessmentprocess but also provides for organizing and maintaining the data over many assessment cycles.Thus, the program would adopt a system where surveys, data generated, and analysis conductedwould be stored on the program’s shared folder in each cycle.B.

Even though these other departments may periodically assessstudent outcomes to support their own accreditation, their assessment approaches and frequencymay vary from those of the multidisciplinary program and their assessment results may not bereported by major.

Education has recently summarized notable developments in addressing this probleml. Most of the programs cited are limited to training of graduate students for jobs as teaching assistants, and few describe effective teaching programs for engineering graduate students. Thus, most engineering Ph.D.’s who enter academia are very well trained for research, but have little or no training in teaching. Colleges are continually being challenged to increase productivity and reduce costs. Downsizing of faculty and severe budget cuts are an all-too-common scenario in American institutions of higher learning2’3 . Retention of the global pre-eminence of American higher education system must come from the rethinking of how teaching and learning take
