multiple AE curriculum courses, working well with architecturaldesign, and including communication and collaboration in a team setting. Additionally it is toconsider standards and codes, integrate computer technology, and to consider buildingperformance and sustainability fundamentals. In individual programs this design knowledge isoften referred to as a focus, and in some of the programs this focus in delivered as a degreeoption(s) within the program. Having a degree option in an AE program is not a requirements ofABET, and the majority of programs currently do not offer degree options in their curriculum.For some programs there is not a stated focus or degree option even though one can be seen uponexamination of the program’s curriculum

peer group is that there are many problems for students towork, and each student throughout the course of a fifty minute class will work three problemsand “host” a problem as a peer tutor. In class, these progressive peer groups are called “FunkyFridays”; they were implemented on a weekly basis as a way to practice the topic(s) of the week.The name gave the cue that this was a regular, ongoing expectation.The progressive peer group is implemented as follows: the instructor prepares at least fourdifferent problems for students to work. Students are randomly grouped in threes and assigned anexercise to work.
