with formaleducation occurring both at the baccalaureate and post-baccalaureate level. However, the BOKdoes not explicitly divide formal education into baccalaureate and post-baccalaureate levels.Therefore, each civil engineering program will determine what part of formal education can beachieved in their baccalaureate program and what part should be met in a post- baccalaureateprogram. Based on an earlier analysis of the civil engineering program at Rose-Hulman Instituteof Technology we have concluded that outcome 12 of the BOK, an ability to apply knowledge ina specialized area related to civil engineering, was not attainable within our current four-yearbaccalaureate program. In addition, we concluded that modification of the curriculum to

These attributes are fundamentalto the “new” rules of the accreditation board for engineering and technology [5].The extent of these attributes is usually assessed through a successful completion of a technicalproject before graduation.

The first was to talk about the different kinds of engineers who work on thesame research projects and to identify the role of each major. The second was to address howthey use the design process in their research. Faculty interactions occurred both through labtours and through classroom presentations.
