quality efforts have been focused onenhancing the quality of our graduate engineering programs, this knowledge is also being appliedto gap courses. As part of the WPI’s new strategic plan, one of the elevate impact initiatives isfocused on pioneering competency-based online education with a focus on engineering educationat the graduate level. This focus and investment has allowed us to reexamine the gap coursesand identify areas for enhancement. Efforts are currently underway to transition those coursesfrom traditional lecture-based courses to competency-based courses. While we expect the moveto competency-based graduate courses to be a large undertaking, we expect the gap course effortto be minimal since the courses had already been modularized

For example, if technology education, addressing the evolving needs of students in a CNC machining course only learned how students and the demands of modern industry. By to write G-code without ever seeing how the machine immersing students in real world challenges, PBL executes it, their understanding of CNC mechanisms enables them to design, implement, and evaluate solutions while developing critical technical and

As to the other two, in research institutions, excellence isusually required in the research area. However, in engineering technology where teaching isemphasized, the teaching area can be used for the area of excellence.
