The main campus is located in eastern Washington in Pullman. TheVancouver campus is about 300 miles away from the main campus in southwest Washington.Since the mid 1980s the campuses have been linked by an interactive TV system calledWHETS. The system facilitates real time, two-way audio/video interaction among classrooms that resemble TV studios. There are a total of 32 such classrooms distributed among all campuses.

and other institutions offeringbaccalaureate programs in engineering technology. Edison’s ultimate intention was to bringdegree-completion programs in engineering technology to their campus to serve the needs of areatechnicians. An Edison survey of graduates and regional employers showed a strong demand forengineering technologists. Survey respondents expressed a need for a baccalaureate degree thatwould permit employees to continue with their job and family responsibilities, and only three outof the 72 individuals desiring a program said they preferred to attend full-time. Of the 29employers, 27 said they would encourage their associates to attend a baccalaureate program.Based on the results of the survey, Edison’s goal was to serve two

a plan of action tomeet the EC-2000 criteria for an engineering program at a local university.The implications of the EC-2000 guidelines are that educators in engineering developcurriculum and assessment tools based on program outcomes. ABET does not stipulate themethods used in the development and assessment process. However, ABET demands thatinstitutions demonstrate the pedagogy used to achieve learning objectives as well asevidence of assessment and continuous improvement. As a consequence of this freedom inprogram development, engineering faculty now have the flexibility to meet student,industry, and institutional needs.Keywords: accreditation, engineering education, assessment, curriculum, online learning

Using a custom board designed for studentsto assemble in lab provides an extended period of time to improve surface mount and throughhole soldering skills. It is still possible to integrate soldering into a course using a commercialPLD board by giving students an add-on board to assemble. This may be a convenient alterna-tive to achieve the same goal.
