Grit is also a topic covered in the course with reference tothe retention of the students in the college of engineering, through to their completion of theengineering degree.Material pertaining to grit was introduced in the course and then an examination of how thismaterial may have increased student grit was conducted. Duckworth et al. (2007) [1] created atwo-factor, twelve item, self-reporting measure of grit. The foundation of this study was basedon the theory of grit as a compound trait. This compound trait was comprised of stamina in twodimensions, and these dimensions

In the current draft document, achievement of learn-ing outcome levels in the post-baccalaureate but pre-licensure phase of a civil engineer’s profes-sional life is called for in outcomes related to contemporary issues, risk/uncertainty, sustainabil-ity, project management, communication, ethics, public policy, business and public administra-tion, teamwork, leadership, lifelong learning, and attitudes.

. In fact the engineering profession is constantly making a series of decisions. Theprocess of decision making is far more complex than the process of problem solving.Complicating factors such as culture, ethnicity, globalization, and ethics should play a prominentrole. Design, the cross-fertilization of science and art, is a basic function of all species thatoccupy a masterfully orchestrated and designed ecosystem in which man is but one. On the otherhand, culture with its complex mix is the expression of what a group of people creates - arts,beliefs customs, institutions, products and thought - at a particular time within the context of thenatural environment.

For example, does using atextbook solution manual when completing a graded homework assignment constitute cheating?The previous study found that most students do not consider this to be cheating except in theextreme case of plagiarism where the solution is copied completely.1 If instructors disagree withthis opinion, now that so many more students have access to the solution manual they need tovery clearly communicate this to
