Curriculum includes required courses in mathematics, physics, & chemistry

These subjects are utilized in many engineering courses (e.g., ENGR 102, 200, 205, 303,304,308,309)

Engineering faculty periodically evaluate the utilization of these subjects in engineering programs through the Curriculum Loop of the Assessment Process.

Engineering faculty maintain contact with subject departments to ensure adequate preparation of engineering students.

1. Students pass required courses in mathematics, physics, & chemistry.

1. Advising and graduation audit

  • Course loop
  • Curriculum loop

2. Students in ENGR 102, 200, 205, 303, 304, 308, and 309 agree (average score of 2.0 or less) that they have attained the course performance criteria related to Outcome A.1.

2. Student course survey for ENGR 102, 200, 205, 303, 304, 308, and 309

3. At least 70% of the faculty agree that our graduates have achieved Outcome A.1.

3. Faculty outcome survey.

4. At least 70% of the graduating seniors agree that they have achieved Outcome A.1.

4. Student exit survey. 

5. At least 70% of the alumni agree that they achieved Outcome A.1

5. Alumni survey
