These hands-on application within construction education areprimarily focused on the senior capstone experience.10,12,13The basic purpose of this project is two-fold: first, to document current first-year constructionmanagement courses, and second, to develop and deliver a hands-on first-year “constructionmanagement experience” within the framework of CM&E 111

As of Fall 2016, the program total enrollment isover 300 students with 16 tenure-track faculty. This institution is a mid-sized, mid-Atlanticinstitution that is primarily focused on undergraduate education. As part of the engineeringcurriculum, all engineering students are required to engage in three semesters of cooperativework experience. Student’s initial co-op semester is the fall after their sophomore year, and thenstudents alternate academic and co-op semesters until graduation.

In the product lifecycle a physical prototype can be producedfrom drawings or from a computer-aided manufacturing system (CAM). The prototype is thentested for design compliance and produced for mass production in the manufacturing division.When Internet technologies were adopted in the engineering design industry in the 1990's, workin engineering design was restructured.

Themethodology outlined in this article is designed to provide a quantitative method for comparisonof options for changes within a course as well as a comparative basis for different courses. TheIEE course is used as an example of how this methodology works.Discipline specific introductory courses such as an Introduction to Environmental Engineeringplay an important role in meeting the new criteria because they offer the flexibility of contentand the ability to experiment that core courses do not. Specifically, the ABET 2000 criteriaspecifies that graduates be able to understand the impact of engineering solutions in a global andsocietal context and to have a
