in the course, they are introduced to otherimportant aspects of engineering such as teamwork, communication skills, time management,personal responsibility and ethics. Details of the individual experiential learning activities andthe resulting outcomes are presented and discussed.1. IntroductionExperience shows that when students are engaged in activities that integrate both cognitive andsensory systems, they are more likely to maintain focus and have better retention of the subjectpresented. There is anecdotal and scientific evidence to support the positive impact ofexperiential learning that many experienced teachers know to be true through personalinteractions with students.The continuing interest in active, collaborative, cooperative

. Masteryexperiences have even been found to be the most influential contributor to self-efficacy.5,6 Bycompleting engineering mastery experiences, students are likely to believe more strongly thatthey are able to complete difficult engineering tasks, and this increased self-efficacy leads toincreased persistence in engineering.7 Projects, which require students to apply engineeringfundamentals in an industry-relevant work environment, have the opportunity to provide studentswith relevant mastery experiences that can improve their academic self-confidence and self-efficacy.Project-based learning has become an important part of higher education.8 Projects not onlyimprove learning outcomes, but also increase motivation by demonstrating how acquiredknowledge and

Chasingacademic awards in competition with your colleagues can lead to an unhealthy individual mindset andeven more unhealthy academic culture.1 Attending open dissertation defenses before you need to defend is a great way to see these sorts of quirks of thatprocess. At my university, dissertation proposals were not open to other graduate students, so there was no real wayof gleaning this process ahead of time.2 By the way, in my industry experience this category of “Honors and Awards” on my curriculum vitae was non-existent—a lot of other career paths do not hand out awards at nearly the same rate as academia.7These

Beginning with the “supply” ofraw intellectual talent (i.e., students) provided from a variety of sources (e.g., high schools,community colleges, etc.), the educational system “produces” civil engineering graduates, whichare then “distributed” to the workforce or to post-graduate education. The “need” driving thesystem is the ability to plan, lead, and execute civil engineering design, and the “customers” arepublic employers, private companies, nonprofit organizations, graduate programs, and thepublic-at-large. The systems view of civil engineering education thus takes into account enteringstudents, potential students, BSCE graduates, educators, industry, government (employers
