In addition totechnical issues, concepts such as professional and ethical responsibility are highlighted byfailure cases. Pilot studies have been carried out over several semesters to assess the use offailure case studies in civil engineering and engineering mechanics courses at Cleveland StateUniversity under an earlier NSF project. Student learning has been assessed through surveys aswell as focus groups, led by researchers from the Cleveland State University College ofEducation and Human Services.

Beforeenrolling in courses, a student should pick a major and a school to transfer to – commonlystudents pick several schools – followed by the student investigating the required andrecommended courses for transferring into that program at that school. Many students considermultiple schools and the requirements may be different for each of them. Students must then planout their own course sequence based on meeting the requirements for transfer to each of thedesired schools. It may be difficult to identify students on a particular engineering pathway fromtheir course enrollment patterns, due to the multiple

There are some that now claim that universities havelost sight of their mission. To this end many universities are beginning to examine faculty rolesand rewards with respect to teaching, research and service. Many faculty and administrators arebeginning to adopt an expanded definition of scholarship, such as the one proposed by ErnestBoyer.8 It is time to identify higher education’s true customer, (business, industry andgovernment) and product, (graduates and research) and find a way to allocate resources (time andmoney) efficiently and appropriately
