QUALITY IN CIVIL ENGINEERING EDUCATION

QUALITY IN CIVIL ENGINEERING EDUCATION

With internal funding as a 2017 Institute for Society, Culture and the Environment (ISCE) Faculty Fellow, Dr. Simmons and a colleague from the Department of Statistics are piloting a macro scale project looking at how to measure quality in the civil engineering education experience. This work involves including the voice of all stakeholders to develop a model that would evaluate the educational outcomes of civil engineering students. The project is motivated by the need to comprehensively examine students’ outcomes before and after significant and transformative institutional changes aimed at improving students’ educational outcomes.
