c American Society for Engineering Education, 2012 A Practical and Comprehensive Approach of Assessing ABET Outcome Achievement in Computer Science and Computer EngineeringintroductionEvery serious organization has a vision or mission statement. Schools of Engineering are not exempt from this charge. Thoughmissions and visions are easy to write, their achievement is often difficult to assess. The Accreditation Board of Engineering andTechnology (ABET) has crystallized this issue among university undergraduate engineering programs attempting to gainaccreditation. ABET requires that an undergraduate program state its educational outcomes and demonstrate how it measures outcomeachievement. Many

Mechanical Engineering at the United States MilitaryAcademy (USMA) is currently investigating a new way of integrating courses within itscurriculum. There are several reasons why the department wants to examine this issue. First, thestructured environment of the USMA limits the number of electives available while emergingtechnologies continue to expand the number of engineering topics. Second, students tend to vieweach course as being very distinct, instead of understanding that there are a few guiding laws andprinciples that govern all of engineering. Integrating courses, as described within this paper,offers solutions to these problems. In addition, there appear to be many other advantages torestructuring the curriculum in this fashion.

new format is required of all students in the General Engineering program, butis only recommended at this time for students who enter in a science major. It is hoped that thisnew course format will retain more students in technical majors—and thus still within theCollege—even if they leave engineering.The addition of content and perspective from the sciences was the impetus behind a completeoverhaul of the course content and schedule. The process of selecting content to be added orremoved is described, but this is rarely transferable to other institutions—the reasons forincluding one course element over another vary too greatly and removing content can be acharged issue. What is transferable is the process by which the curriculum was ordered

Moving engineering education research into practice is a more complicated task than itmight initially seem. There are many significant barriers to hinder the transition from research toimplementation. These barriers can be categorized into two groups: (1) individual barriers, suchas personality characteristics that contribute to a lack of willingness to implement innovations, aswell as a lack of knowledge about engineering education research; and (2) environmentalperceptions, such as perceptions of the tenure and

This finding is magnified in the context ofSTEM related disciplines, such as engineering, where efforts to pro-actively diversify theworkforce are taking shape. Yet, not every form of faculty-student mentorship is proven to beeffective, particularly when faculty conceal
