together; separate modules were developed for boththe lecture and laboratory components of these courses. Lastly, structural engineering coursesrequired for both CEEN and AEEN students are traditionally cross-linked and taught as a singlecourse (due to limited number of faculty). These courses are not differentiated in Table 1.Examples of course modules include: • CEEN / AEEN 3303 (Structural Analysis) teaches students to calculate the effects of external loads on structural components. Key to student success in advanced structural design and capstone courses is development of a systemic view of a structure and the ability to specify ultimate structural demands. Use of loading standards increases students’ conceptualization

suspect that liberal arts institutions inparticular focus on teaching non-technical knowledge and skills, which are also valued byindustry [1]. A more balanced educational experience might be particularly relevant given thelarge number of folks with engineering degrees who work outside of engineering occupations;the NAE estimated that as of 2013 there were 65% of all degreed engineers who worked inoccupations not considered engineering [41]. The ABET EAC program criteria add additionalcurricular constraints on specialty degrees, with the majority of the identified aspects relating totechnical issues; programs accredited under the general criteria do not face these additionalrestrictions [42]. Previous research quantified the amount of required
