Hands-on group projects formed the bulk of the curricula, providinga semi-authentic feel of engineering work and an atmosphere that was envisioned to highlyengage the students.Incoming freshmen were enticed by a one-on-one laptop initiative, the prospect of no tests andvery little homework, and a formal agreement with an in-state engineering college which offeredguaranteed acceptance to those who met specified requirements. To encourage students of allabilities to apply, admission standards were kept relatively low, the key condition being anability to perform at grade level in math. For those below this level, provisional acceptance couldbe offered. Four years after the academy opened its doors, 340 students were enrolled

More importantly however, the EOCR process instills aculture of assessment into all of our instructors, both junior and senior faculty.IntroductionA. Program Quality, Assessment and AccreditationThe goal of every undergraduate engineering department is to deliver a quality, but cost effectiveprogram to its students. More specifically, that its graduates attain the stated program objectivesand thereby be successful in their professional careers. The students, alumni, upperadministration and other constituents not only expect, but demand such achievement. A largemeasure of a program’s quality is it satisfying the criteria provided by such accreditation bodiesas ABET. Put another way
