3. Program History

The Welding Engineering (WE) program at The Ohio State University offers the onlyABET-accredited Bachelor of Science in welding engineering in the United States. Weldingengineering was established as a department with a BS program within the IndustrialEngineering Department in 1948. It became a separate department in 1948, an M.S. degree wasestablished in 1956 and a Ph.D. degree in 1985. In establishing the department, the OSU Collegeof Engineering recognized that engineering for welding requires a uniquely broad set of knowledge. In designing and refining welding processes, operations and welded products,welding engineers apply knowledge and techniques from the diverse engineering disciplines:materials, manufacturing. design and non-destructive evaluation. Based on this interdisciplinaryfoundation with an added technical area of polymers, the department eventually achieved

national recognition for its materials joining research and education. Over 1000 WeldingEngineering degrees have been conferred since the inception of the program, with over 50% of those in the past 20 years. Currently, approximately 20 to 40 BS degrees are awarded annually.Welding Engineering graduates from Ohio State are highly sought after by major corporationsthroughout the United States. Starting salaries are competitive with the highest of offers in allengineering disciplines at Ohio State.

The Welding Engineering Department was re-combined with the Industrial Engineeringdepartment in 1994 during a restructuring aimed at decreasing the number of department in theCollege of Engineering. It became one of two degree programs within the renamed Departmentof Industrial, Welding and Systems Engineering. During AY 2009/2010, the Welding

Engineering Program was transitioned into the Materials Science and Engineering Department.This reconfiguration was based in part on a realization that the research programs of the twodepartments had evolved in such a way that there was more synergy between the MSE and WE programs and less synergy between the ISE and WE programs than there had been in the past. Inaddition, welding metallurgy had always been seen as a key component of the WE undergraduatecurriculum, partially because of the required MSE course content.

8. Deficiencies, Weaknesses or Concerns from Previous Evaluation(s) and the Actions

Taken to Address Them

The final statement from the 2005-6 ABET review of the WE program listed one area of concern and one observation. The concern noted that many students transfer to WE from

other majors and require approval of course substitutions. It was stated that the programshould review its procedures for approving and documenting course substitutions.

Since transferring from the Integrated Systems Engineering Department to the Department of Materials Science and Engineering, the Welding Engineering program course substitutionapproval and documentation procedures now conform to the procedures used in the latter department. All petitions for substitutions or exceptions by WE majors are subjected tomandatory review by the undergraduate studies committee chair and are documented in theundergraduate studies committee minutes by the Department Academic Advisor. They arealso documented on the student's degree audit. The most common substitutions for transferring students are for General Education Requirements and Engineering Graphics 167.

These are approved at the College level and are also documented on the student's degreeaudit.

The observation contained in the final statement from the 2005-6 ABET review of the WE program noted that a number of program faculty were nearing retirement age. It wasrecommended that the program develop a plan describing how retiring faculty would bereplaced. In response to this recommendation, a Welding Engineering Transition PlanningCommittee (TPC) was convened in December 2006 at the request of Dr. Julia Higle, Chair of

7/29/2019 11_abet_we


3

Industrial, Welding and Systems Engineering Department with the urging of College of Engineering Dean Baeslack. The goal of the committee was to assist the IWSE Departmentin planning for the future development of the Welding Engineering program. The output of this process was two reports with plans to maintain the program through the facultyretirement transitions. The first report was submitted by the WE faculty to the Transition

Planning Committee on June 15, 2007 and the second submitted by the committee to theIWSE department chair Higle on July 12, 2007.

Subsequent events included retirement of four tenured faculty, hiring of one tenured facultyand a decision to refocus and strengthen the WE program by transitioning it to theDepartment of Materials Science and Engineering during AY 2009/2010. The majority of thefaculty (three of the four) that retired since the 2005 ABET review taught courses in thewelding processes area of Welding Engineering and 3 of the retired faculty were chair of theWE program ABET committee in the year of their retirement (Profs. Richardson, Albrightand Tsai). The program has since added a clinical faculty who teaches processes-relatedcourses. Also, there is currently an active search underway for an additional tenured faculty

with expertise in the area of welding processes. These efforts, combined with assumption of increased teaching load by the remaining tenured welding process faculty have maintainedthe quality of instruction in the process area.

9. Joint AccreditationThe program is solely accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission of ABETand is not jointly accredited by any other commission.

GENERAL CRITERIA

CRITERION 1. STUDENTS

1.A Student Admissions

Admission to The Ohio State University is selective. Applicants undergo aholistic review considering standardized test scores, high school (or previous institution) performance, and written essays. This review and the admission decision are handled centrallyin the Office of Undergraduate Admissions and First Year Experience. Students who have beenadmitted indicating engineering as their area of interest and having a minimum ACT Math scoreof 24 or SAT Math score of 560 are directly enrolled as pre-engineering students in the Collegeof Engineering. Students who do not meet this score may enroll in the University Exploration program and apply for admission to a pre-engineering program after completing Math 151 andeither Chemistry 121 or Physics 131 with a cumulative GPA of 2.0 or higher. Students who startat a regional campus of Ohio State (Newark, Lima, Marion, Mansfield, & Wooster) are eligibleto change to the Columbus campus after completing 45 credit hours to include Math 151 andeither Chemistry 121 or Physics 131 with a cumulative GPA of 2.0 or higher regardless of whether they start as a pre-engineering student or not. Transfer students admitted to theuniversity may also be admitted directly to the College of Engineering in a Pre-WeldingEngineering major status. Students in the pre-major status have the advantage of being advised

7/29/2019 11_abet_we


4

directly by the Department Academic Advisor. Pre-engineering students then must meet thespecific academic requirements for admission to their desired major.

Admission to the Welding Engineering Program as a Major normally occurs after thestudent has completed the freshmen engineering core (curriculum will be presented in Section 5).

Admission to the Welding Engineering Program requires a minimum 2.0 CGPA and a minimum2.0 CGPA in a program-specific set of “Secondary Point Hour” courses chosen from theengineering core for purposes of determining who is admitted to the major. For WeldingEngineering, those courses include: Engineering 181 and 183; Engineering Graphics 167; Math151, 152 and 153; Chemistry 121 and 125; and Physics 131 and 132. (or their equivalents).

1. B. Evaluating Student Performance

1.B.1 Course Grading, Credit Points, Grade Point Averages and Deficiency Points

The two objectives in the student evaluation process are that each student maintains aminimal level of performance in each and every course in the program, and a reasonably

consistent level of academic performance throughout the program. This evaluation procedure is based on the grading (marking) of individual courses.

Instructors are required to list the courseevaluation criteria on the course syllabus, and distributethe course syllabus at the beginning of each course.Typical evaluation instruments include examinations,quizzes, written and oral reports, and skill assessment.The result is a letter and numerical grade score (GS). Thecorrespondence between letter grades and grade score isgiven in Table 1.1. The credit points (CP) awarded for each course is the product of course credits (C) and grade

score:

GS C CP

For example, a grade of C in a 3 credit course results inaward of 6 credit points.

Grade point average (GPA) for any time period isthe ratio of total credit points awarded to total credits of courses completed in that period.

C

CP GPA

Grade point averages used in assessment of student progress are cumulative grade point average(CGPA), quarterly grade point average (QGPA) and GPA in Welding Engineering courses. Thestudent must pass every course in their program curriculum. Courses may be repeated, but poor academic performance (defined as any quarter with a QGPA less than 2.0) can bring academic probation and eventually dismissal from the department and then the college, as discussed later in Progress, Academic Probation, and Dismissal, section 1.B.3.

For students with CGPA of less than 2.0, deficiency points (DP) are calculated as the

P C C DP 2

Any student who accumulates 15 or more deficiency points is placed on academic probation by

the University.

1.B.2 Graduation Requirements

In order to graduate, each student must pass every WE course in their programcurriculum. They must also have at least a 2.0 cumulative grade point average (CGPA) and atleast a 2.0 grade point average in Welding Engineering courses. These graduation requirements provide an end point for the student’s path through the curriculum.

1.B.3 Progress, Academic Probation, and Dismissal

Any student who has accumulated fifteen or more deficiency points is placed on probation by the University. The probation continues provided the student’s college considers

the student’s progress to be satisfactory and is removed when the deficiency points are fewer than fifteen. University academic probation and dismissal policies supersede all other collegeactions. In summary, satisfactory progress in Welding Engineering is defined as maintenance of QGPA of 2.0 in all attempted courses and not withdrawing from any course without permissionof the student advisor. Detailed procedures for the college and Welding Engineering are spelledout in Appendix F. The student is notified of probationary status and what will be considered assatisfactory progress by the dean of the college. In the COE, the dean has appointed a designeeto perform this notification. The designee presents academic probation cases to the AcademicStandards and Progress (ASAP) Subcommittee at the quarterly meeting after grades aresubmitted.

The College of Engineering monitors the academic performance of all engineeringstudents. If performance does not significantly improved each quarter until the deficiency inquality points is removed, the student can be dismissed from the College of Engineering. Suchactions are determined by the College of Engineering Committee on Academic Actions.

The student may also be placed in a probationary status or dismissed from individual programs within the College of Engineering if specific program criteria are not met. Suchactions are known as “Special Action Probation (SAP)”. The Welding Engineering SAPcriteria are generally based on academic term (quarter or semester) grades and academic progress.

Following each quarter’s report of grades for that preceding quarter, if a student hasearned less than a 2.0 quarterly grade point average (QPHR), regardless of total credit hourstaken that quarter, the student is placed on SAP for Grades.Each student placed on SAP for Grades will be sent a letter, by email, stating the following conditions of their probation:

1. The student must earn a quarterly point-hour (QPHR) of 2.0 or above in their next quarter of enrollment.

7/29/2019 11_abet_we


6

2. The student must earn a quarterly point-hour ratio of 2.0 or above in any WeldingEngineering courses.

3. The student may not drop any course after the third Friday of the quarter without written permission from the Undergraduate Studies Chairperson.

4. The student may not receive a grade of Incomplete (I) or a grade of E in any course taken

that quarter.5. The student must attain/maintain a cumulative point-hour ratio (CPHR) of 2.0 or above.

In addition, the student may be required to meet periodically with the program Advisor or with the Undergraduate Studies Chairperson. Also, a student may be restricted in the number of hours they will be allowed to enroll in for the next quarter.

Students may also be placed on SAP or lack of progress. If a student earns excessive W’sor I’s, or if a student has taken a preponderance of courses not related to the major, the student is placed on SAP for Lack of Progress.Each student placed on SAP for Lack of Progress will besent a letter, by email, stating the following conditions of their probation:

1. The student must take courses in their next quarter of enrollment which are required intheir chosen major.

2. The student must earn a quarterly point-hour (QPHR) of 2.0 or above in their next quarter of enrollment.

3. The student must earn a quarterly point-hour ratio of 2.0 or above in any WeldingEngineering courses.

4. The student may not drop any course after the third Friday of the quarter without written permission from the Undergraduate Studies Chairperson.

5. The student may not receive a grade of Incomplete (I) or a grade of E in any course takenthat quarter.

6. The student must attain/maintain a cumulative point-hour ratio (CPHR) of 2.0 or above.

Following receipt of grades after the student’s next quarter of enrollment, a student will be removed from SAP if it is determined that the student has met the terms listed above. A letter of this notification will be sent by email to the student.

If the student fails to meet the above-listed terms of the academic probation, then thestudent will be considered for departmental dismissal.

A student dismissed from the program may petition for reinstatement after at least 3quarters from the dismissal. This will provide adequate time for the student to demonstrate thecapability of satisfactory performance in scientific and technical courses. A student wishing to be considered for reinstatement should first meet with the Academic Advisor and with theUndergraduate Studies Chair.

1.B.4 Monitoring of StudentsThe Department Academic Advisor primarily assists with registration and monitoring.

The advisor screens both CGPA’s and Welding Engineering course grade point aver ages at theend of each quarter to determine progress toward degree and violations of academic standards.

7/29/2019 11_abet_we


7

The Advisor then informs the Undergraduate Curriculum of such violations, the committeedetermining the appropriate actions. The Advisor also helps students negotiate any problemswith University rules and regulations and is available to help with students' personal issues. TheAdvisor provides the knowledge and connection for a student with other resources on campusavailable to the student.

At the beginning of the third year the Advisor reminds students of the technical electiveand GEC requirements, and collects technical elective forms for approval or submission to theUndergraduate Curriculum Committee. The Advisor also reminds students of the requirement,and collects applications for graduation at least three quarters prior to graduation.

At the end of each quarter the Advisor monitors both CGPA and Welding Engineeringcourse grade point averages to determine two issues: (1) progress toward degree and (b)violations of academic standards. If violations of academic standards are determined, theUndergraduate Curriculum Committee is informed and makes the appropriate disposition(placing a student on Special Action Probation (SAP), continuing a student on SAP if

appropriate based on individual circumstances, taking a student off SAP, or dismissing thestudent).

The Department academic Advisor has the responsibility of ensuring that students havemet the pre-requisites for courses in which they wish to enroll. The Advisor normally does notallow students to enroll in courses for which they do not have listed pre-requisites. In caseunusual circumstances argue for admission of the student to a particular course for which theylack prerequisites, the student may petition the WE undergraduate studies committee, detailingthe prior experience that they feel qualifies them to enroll without prerequisites. In consultationwith the course instructor, the undergraduate studies committee grants or denies permission toenroll in the course.

Progress toward degree is monitored by making sure that the student was enrolled inappropriate and required courses. The Advisor sends quarterly e-mail messages out to the emaillist of our students in the major reminding those who intend to graduate three quarters in thefuture to submit a completed Application to Graduate. The Advisor then reviews the overall progress to degree, including the students' completion of other University requirements such asthe GECs, and uses the students' predictions of enrollment for their remaining quarters to check that all requirements will be fulfilled upon graduation.

1.C. Transfer Students and Transfer CoursesThe requirements and processes for accepting transfer students and assessing transfer credit

are summarized in this section. The State of Ohio articulation policy and the Ohio Board of Regents College Level Examination Program description form the basis of the Ohio StateUniversity practices for awarding transfer credits for the various mathematics, sciences andgeneral education curriculum courses that make up much of the required curriculum for thefreshman and sophomore years for the Welding Engineering degree.

1.C.1 Transfer Students

7/29/2019 11_abet_we


8

The acceptance of transfer students is a two step process. First the student is consideredfor acceptance into the university, and then the student is considered for acceptance into theindividual program. The University acceptance procedure for transfer students is covered in

Transfer Application Packet 2011. The procedure for acceptance as a major in the WeldingEngineering Program is the same as discussed in 1.A of this document except that the 2.0 GPA is

based on only those freshmen core courses taken at Ohio State (not on core courses for whichtransfer credit was awarded).

Potential transfer students apply to The Ohio State University via a Transfer StudentApplication, which is first evaluated and verified in the University Admissions Office. Domesticapplicants with a 2.7 GPA on a 4.0 scale or better, in 45 non-technical, transferable quarter (30semester) hours are admitted directly to the college as a pre-major in the engineering program of their choice. Domestic applicants who do not meet these criteria, and all international applicantsapplying to transfer in either from a U.S. or international institution, are referred to the programin which they have indicated interest. The department's Undergraduate Studies Committeemakes an admission decision based on their evaluation of the student’s ability to function well in

the program.

1.C.2 Transfer Course CreditThe Office of Admissions also makes preliminary decisions of the department and

category of credit for all courses for which the student had received a grade of “C-” or better attheir previous school(s). Transfer credit could be assigned direct course equivalency byAdmissions, for example, assuming that a basic English Composition course at any accreditedschool would be equivalent to Ohio State’s English 110. Most commonly the transfer creditevaluator is able to determine this for basic humanities and social science courses. Transfer credit may also be awarded as “General”, “Special” or “Technical”. Credit awarded in any of these categories must be specifically evaluated by individual departments for potentialequivalency to OSU courses. A student who had, for example, “Math General 10 credit hours”on their Transfer Credit Evaluation Form, would take course description bulletins, syllabi and/or textbooks from the course(s) at their previous institution to the Transfer Evaluator (usually afaculty member) in that Department and the Evaluator would indicate on a form the OSUcourse(s) to which that credit is equivalent and send the form back to Admissions. Admissionswould verify signature and credit hour totals and then instruct the Registrar’s Office to includethe specific equivalencies as part of the student’s official record.

In some cases specific equivalencies are not possible. In such cases a depar tment’sevaluator may write a letter stating that the intent of the requirement has been fulfilled withoutspecific equivalency or that a large portion of material in the previous course covers a large portion of material in the OSU course. Based on those support letters, a Department mightapprove a Substitution Petition for that student for that course. After approval by theUndergraduate Studies Committee, a Substitution Petition then goes to a College Committee for final determination, and, if approved, becomes part of the student’s permanent record.

The Welding Engineering Program does not award transfer credit for weldingengineering lecture courses. Examination credit is sometimes awarded for OSU WeldingEngineering 350, and 351. Credit for these two laboratory courses may be awarded by

7/29/2019 11_abet_we


9

satisfactory completion of an examination as described in section 1.C.3 below. Transfer creditfor Welding Engineering lecture courses at the 300 level and above is normally not present incourses from other institutions who offer welding-related curricula due to the need for calculusas well as calculus-based physics and electrical circuits prerequisites.

1.C.3 Tests for Credit by Examination for WE350, WE350

Examination by credit for Weld Eng 350

1.D. Advising and Career Guidance

Academic advising across all engineering programs is coordinated at the College level by

the Engineering Director of Academic Advising. Engineering 100, an introduction to theUniversity and engineering majors, is coordinated across all programs. Both pre-majors andmajors are advised. During orientation students are assigned an engineering advisor accordingto the pre-major they choose and will have an academic advisor until they graduate. Theadvising function in the Welding Engineering Program is performed both formally andinformally. Formal advising is performed by a member of the department administrative staff,currently Ms. M. Daniels. Students who have yet to enter either category are advised asundecided students in the College of Engineering, or by advisors within the Undergraduate

7/29/2019 11_abet_we


10

Student Academic Services office. Students meet with the advisor at the student’s discretion.Only students in a probationary status are required to receive advisor approval prior toregistration.

The relatively small size of the Welding Engineering Program provides many

opportunities for students to become well acquainted with most of the faculty. Many studentsreceive informal advising from faculty on a variety of topics including academic programs andrequirements, graduate school, career paths and other areas of importance.

1.E. Work in Lieu of Courses No credit is awarded for work in lieu of Welding Engineering lecture courses. WE pre-

major students that request such credit in lieu of the laboratory courses WE350 and WE351 aregiven the opportunity to obtain examination by credit by completing an examination todemonstrate knowledge and manual welding skills. This two-part exam is administered by theWE350/WE351 laboratory instructor consists of a written portion covering recitation topics anda manual welding demonstration. A written description of the examinations is appended to this

self-study report.

1.F. Graduation Requirements

In order to graduate and be awarded a Bachelor of Science in Welding Engineeringdegree, an undergraduate student must pass every required course in the WE programundergraduate curriculum. They must also have at least a 2.0 cumulative grade point average(CGPA) and at least a 2.0 grade point average in Welding Engineering courses. The DepartmentAcademic Advisor is responsible for verifying and certifying that the graduation requirementshave been met by each and every graduating student. These graduation requirements provide anend point for the student’s path through the curriculum.

1.G. Transcripts of Recent GraduatesThe program will provide transcripts from some of the most recent graduates to the

visiting team. The program is designated as WELD ENG in the transcripts.

CRITERION 2. PROGRAM EDUCATIONAL OBJECTIVES

4. Welding engineers will be able tocommunicate effectively in written, oraland informal forms with a variety of audiences.

5. Welding engineers will be able to work effectively in independent andcollaborative aspects of their

professional activity in an organized and productive fashion.

2.C Consistency of the Program Educational

Objectives with the Mission of the InstitutionThe vision of the Ohio State University is

defined in its Academic Plan, accessible athttp://www.osu.edu/academicplan/stage.php.The stated purpose of the OSU is “To advancethe well-being of the people of Ohio and theglobal community through the creation anddissemination of knowledge.” Core values are:

A. Pursue knowledge for its own sake.B. Ignite in our students a lifelong love of

learning.C. Produce discoveries that make the world

a better place.D. Celebrate and learn from our diversity.E. Open the world to our students.Comparison shows that the objectives of the

undergraduate WE program are aligned andconsistent with the Ohio State University purpose and core values, although the latter aresomewhat larger in scope and aspiration.

2.D Program Constituencies

Welding Engineering identifies fiveconstituencies of the program that have a stakein the achievement of the above objectives by

Table 2.D-1 Companies Hiring WE Majors 05 – 06

7/29/2019 11_abet_we


12

program graduates. The primary constituencies include: students that choose the program, theindustries that recruit and employ welding engineering graduates, and the alumni of weldingengineering that support the program. The Edison Welding Institute (EWI) is viewed as asignificant constituency due to their unique relationship with the program. Finally, graduateschools in engineering are recognized as constituencies as they rely on graduates to seek higher

levels of education and/or life-long learning. The interests and role of these constituents aresummarized below.

2.D.1 Students

The students that choose our program, and their families, are in several ways the mostimportant constituency of the program. They are the constituency with which we have the mostdirect contact. They are often the most vocal in praise and criticism. This constituency makes ahuge investment of time, financial resources, aspirations and faith in the university, the college,and the program to provide an avenue to a viable, challenging and life-long career endeavor.They deserve the best education that can be provided, and one that will assure them success

throughout their professional careers.

2.D.2 Industry

Welding Engineers graduating from Ohio State often enter some aspect of the weldingindustry on graduation with a BS degree. Welding Engineering graduates can be employed invarious capacities by manufacturers or end users of every imaginable kind of engineeredstructure, product, or process. This may be within the identifiable “welding industry”, or in themultiplicity of companies large and small that rely on joining of materials for manufacture of products ranging from routine (e.g., automotive mufflers, lawn mowers) to the highly critical(e.g., jet aircraft engines, artificial pacemakers). The data for companies hiring WE graduates,co-ops and summer interns in the 05-06 academic year is inserted in Table 2.D-1. Although thisis a snapshot, it provides an illustration of the range of industries with needs for WeldingEngineering graduates.

2.D.3 Welding Engineering Alumni

Welding Engineering alumni are a significant constituency of the program because of theunique status of Ohio State welding engineering alumni in the U.S. welding industry, and their responsible positions and influence in major companies in many industrial sectors. A substantialnumber of new graduates each year are hired by WE alumni who head corporate or plant weldinggroups and activities. Ohio State Welding Engineering has a dedicated and active group of alumni, organized into The Ohio State University Welding Engineering Alumni Society. Thesealumni express a considerable support in the Welding Engineering program, its continuation, andits improvement.

2.D.4 Edison Welding Institute

The Ohio State University Welding Engineering program has a unique relationship with theEdison Welding Institute (EWI). EWI is a non-profit corporate consulting, research and

7/29/2019 11_abet_we

development organization with over 200 corporate subscribers. Subscribers include major andminor companies throughout the US, as well as many in Ohio. This includes companies likeGeneral Electric, Caterpillar, General Motors and Ford. EWI owns the 130,000 square footEdison Joining Technology Center (EJTC), on land leased from Ohio State University at theWest Campus of the university. EWI occupies approximately 100,000 square feet, with

approximately 30,000 square feet leased to the university to house the Welding Engineering program. EWI has a staff of approximately 60 engineers, the majority of whom are graduates of Welding Engineering. EWI operates with an annual budget of up to $30M per year. EWIsupplies as much as $600,000 in research funds to Ohio State University. A number of undergraduate welding engineering students work in part-time capacities for EWI throughout theschool year. Some students also intern full-time at EWI during summers. Cooperative researchwith EWI also employs a number of graduate students who may work either in EWI or OSUlaboratories. Due to their partnership with Ohio State, their employment of more Ohio Statewelding engineers than any other entity, and their strong ties with the welding industrythroughout the United States, they are regarded as an important constituency. Also, EWItechnicians are paid by the program to provide laboratory instruction for the introduction of

students to manual welding, and logistical support for welding laboratory maintenance.

2.D.5 Graduate Programs

Typically ten to twenty percent of BSWE graduates go directly into graduate school. Most of those who continue seek an MS in Welding Engineering at Ohio State. They often continue dueto participation in the combined BS/MS for students that have demonstrated high academicability. The combined BS/MS program allows the attainment of an MS degree with oneadditional year following the BS. BS/MS plan students are often employed by EWI as a part of an EWI Graduate Fellowship program that involves participation in project and research work atEWI. Students wanting to pursue graduate study often stay on at OSU. Graduates that go toother universities typically choose an industrial engineering, mechanical engineering or materialsscience-related program. As in many engineering disciplines, pursuing a graduate program atOhio State may not be attractive to most graduates compared to starting a career in industry withlucrative industrial salaries. It is not unusual to find BS WE graduates in corporate research anddevelopment positions because of their unique background in welding principles andfundamentals. Graduates that continue their education later in their careers may choose MBA programs rather than graduate programs in engineering as they progress into management positions. As a result, graduate programs are currently not considered to be a major constituencyof the Welding Engineering program.

2.D.5 Relationship of Program Educational Objectives to Constituent Needs

The objectives listed in section 2.B imply knowledge in a mixture of fundamental andapplied subject areas that comprehensively meet the needs of the constituents. In particular,2.B.1 and 2.B.2 both require knowledge of welding-related basic science and mechanicsconcepts that prepare a student for graduate study while 2.B.3 explicitly calls out the appliedknowledge needed by industrial applications and welding development engineering. Thecommunications and teamwork topics addressed by objectives 2.B.4 and 2.B.5 and the basiccultural literacy requirement in 2.B.1 are needed by all graduates.

2.E Process for Revision of the Program Educational Objectives

Consideration of the continuing suitability of the program objectives and outcomes iscarried out periodically in discussions held during the Program Assessment Board (PAB)

meetings. Input for this review of objectives comes from several sources. One source of inputhas been the College of Engineering Alumni Survey. This survey asks second and sixth year alumni to judge the suitability, usefulness and success of their learning education relative to the program objectives after gaining the benefit of their employment experience. A source for judging overall success of the program in the eyes of employers, with implications to programobjectives and outcomes, has been starting salary data for graduating seniors. Another sourceof input has been the Welding Engineering Program Assessment Board members experiences

with capstone projects teams. The PAB is constituted primarily of industry sponsors of senior capstone projects, so the board members experiences also informs the review of programobjectives in addition to attainment of them by that years’ students.

The current Program Educational Objectives were in place before the time of the last program review completed in 2005. These program objectives and outcomes were first approved by the IWSE Department Advisory Board in the Autumn of 1998. The objectives weredeveloped based on analysis of the existing program, and with the aid of Welding Engineeringrepresentatives on the Department of Industrial, Welding and Systems Engineering AdvisoryBoard (with representation from both the Welding Engineering and Industrial and SystemsEngineering programs). Board members also assisted with the development of the WeldingEngineering program outcomes necessary for achievement of the program objectives. Originalobjective and outcome development was based on elements of the existing program, career experiences of board members, and on US Department of Labor information describing the profession of welding engineering.

Program objectives in place at the time of the previous ABET program review (2005)were re-affirmed in 2009 by the program assessment board meeting during that year.

2.E.1 College of Engineering Alumni Survey

The College of Engineering Alumni Survey has been conducted on a yearly basis since1999 as a source of data on program objectives and outcomes. This survey has been distributedto second and sixth year engineering graduates of all engineering programs. This survey has ageneral component and a component specific to each degree program. The survey asks thealumni to rate accomplishment of the program objectives based on their educational experience.The responses give an indication of the perceived accomplishment of the objectives as acomponent of assessment of program outcome assessment to be discussed regarding ABETCriterion 3 in the next section.

2.E.2 Placement Data

Placement data for graduates with a BS degree in Welding Engineering is viewed as anindicator of the success of the program in meeting the program educational objectives in that it

7/29/2019 11_abet_we


15

reflects the perception of employers as to the future contribution and impact that graduates canmake in the industry. Historically, Welding Engineering has experienced good demand for BSdegree graduates as reflected by numbers employed and starting salary offer comparisons withother disciplines. Formal placement data supplied by OSU Engineering Career Services andEmployer Relations of the College of Engineering provides quantitative data concerning

placement (reporting is voluntary and therefore does not account for all graduates). This dataallows a trend over time to be studied, mainly with regard to any deterioration in demand for graduates that might suggest the need for improvement of program objectives or outcomes for the purpose of supplying a more qualified and respected graduate. It is necessary to keep inmind that the salary data is self-reported which has potential implications for thecomprehensiveness and representativeness of the sampling set.

2.E.3 Program Assessment Board

The Program Assessment Board (PAB) is made up of representatives from companieswho sponsor capstone design projects and selected representatives from previously cited

constituencies. It has been charged with yearly assessment of the extent to which WE ProgramEducational Objectives are being achieved, as well as to provide recommendations for improvement of Program Objectives and Outcomes. They also give general feedback to the WEfaculty, via the WE Undergraduate Studies Committee, of their opinion of the program andrecommendations for improvement based on their capstone project interactions and other experience with the program.

The PAB meets during the ninth or tenth week of classes of the Spring Quarter. This dateis chosen to correspond with the final presentation of Capstone Design projects by graduatingseniors, thus giving the board an opportunity to view presentations for assessment purposes.Minutes from the 2009 and 2011 PAB meetings and the attendees are presented in Section 4

Continuous Improvement. Board members are introduced and provided an update on the program since the last meeting. Materials provided to the board members consist of a list of board members and affiliations, an overview of the program educational objectives and studentoutcomes and results of the various assessment activities that have taken place, including alumnisurvey and placement data. They attend final presentations of several Capstone Design projects.They subsequently discuss the program among themselves and with faculty representatives to provide feedback on the program objectives, outcomes and suggestions for improvement.

CRITERION 4. CONTINUOUS IMPROVEMENT

This section documents: a) the processes for regularly assessing and evaluating theextent to which the program educational objectives and student outcomes are being attained, and b) evaluation results that quantify the extent to which the program educational objectives andstudent outcomes are being attained. It also describes how the results of these processes have been utilized to effect continuous improvement of the program and provides examples of thoseimprovements.

The annual continuous improvement process used by the WE program is summarized in

the diagram below.

The assessment instruments used to gather data for the process are listed in each block andthe person(s) responsible for collecting the information are also shown. The approximate timingof the collection of the various data is distributed throughout the academic year to correspond tothe time at which the information is available. The program assessment board meeting isconvened by the WE UGSC chair near the end of spring quarter. This meeting coincides with thefinal project presentations by WE capstone teams since this board is comprised primarily of capstone project sponsors.

4.A Program Educational Objectives AssessmentTable 4.A-1 lists the assessment processes used to gather data used to evaluate the programeducational objectives, the frequency of data collection, the expected level of attainment for eachobjective. Also, the results of the evaluation processes and the extent to which each of the program educational objectives is being attained are summarized.

4.A-1 Program Educational Objectives Assessment Results

The Welding Engineering program evaluates its educational objectives through feedback from the College of Engineering Alumni Survey of recent graduates and Program Assessment

Board. The college survey asks alumni to rate the degree to which the WE curriculum allowedthem to achieve stated program objectives within several years after graduation. The ProgramAssessment Board is asked to comment on the suitability of the objectives for the undergraduatecurriculum.

The results of the College of Engineering alumni surveys for the years 2006, 2008, and2009 are summarized in Tables 4.A.2-4 below. Note that the 2009 data was taken out-of-sequence so as to be available for this ABET evaluation cycle.

Generally, the results all indicated that the alumni either strongly or very strongly agree(Likert levels 4 and 5) with the objectives listed in the table. The only statement that received arating less than 4 (3.89 in 2006 and 3.92 in 2008) corresponded to Objective 1” You can utilizethe fundamental principles of engineering science and mathematics, and feel that you are awareof the underlying historic, social, ethical and aesthetic aspects of engineering.”. However, thisobjective improved a strong rating of 4.25 in 2009. No specific course or curriculum

modifications are implied by these results.

Program Assessment Board Meetings

The program advisory board meeting was not held in 2007 due to retirements of WE program personnel. A meeting of the capstone sponsor representatives from AY 2008-2009 with minutesas shown in Table 4.A-5.

Table 4.A-5 2009 OSU WE Program Capstone Program Assessment Board Meeting Minutes

7/29/2019 11_abet_we


22

• 5/28/09 10:45 – 12:00 Rm 102

• Attending: D Harwig (EWI), A Swary (Panasonic FA), D Molnar, M Topping (Siemens)

• A program summary consisting of curriculum objectives, outcomes and assessment results for the

current year was presented for 1st

the 45 min, after which the panel discussed curriculum

topics

• The general idea of broadening the “inspection” component of WE to “Quality” was supported by

several attendees.

• One attendee suggested the inclusion of waveform design and offline programming of robotic

systems as useful skills

• One attendee said graduates do not have knowledge to select among the various commercially-

available welding wire formulations for a given application (simple example: S1, S3, S6 steel

wires: what affect does silicon have on the weld?)

• This lead to a general discussion of usefulness of“chemistry of welding” topic that was dropped

from the curriculum when Prof Howden retired. In general, the attendees agreed that this

could be topic for a replacement faculty recruited as part of the WE-MSE transition.

• Several attendees mentioned that in general, capstone presentations could be more “polished” to

clearly state conclusions, etc.

• Several attendees mentioned the ISE student advisor as an asset and hoped that the alumni

communications (e.g. about jobs opportunities) would continue after the WE-MSE transition

The most immediate actionable item from the discussion was a suggestion for improvement of the capstone presentations. This was forwarded to the capstone instructor for the coming year,Professor Lippold. The suggestion for power supply waveform design is considered for inclusionin the WE500 course. The topic can be covered after the introduction to switching power supplydesigns, time permitting. However, there are other higher priority subjects that are of interest to a broader spectrum of welding engineering job functions that must be thoroughly covered. Theacquisition of off-line robot programming software is currently being discussed with Motoman by Prof. Phillips in conjunction with the new robotic work-cell that was installed during AY2010-11. Prof. Phillips currently has a full schedule of 9 lab exercises that have been developedfor instruction on this new system via WE656 - Robot Programming and Operations beginning inAu2011. However, when the program transitions to a semester calendar beginning in Au2012,

there will be 14 instruction weeks, so the additional off-line programming topic can be feasiblyadded.

A meeting of the program advisory board consisting of capstone sponsor representatives fromAY 2010-11 was held on June 3, 2011 with minutes as shown in Table 4.C-5. At the 2011 PABmeeting, the representatives were asked to fill out questionnaires with ratings of the extent towhich the capstone members teams displayed capabilities and preparedness relating to the WEstudent outcomes. This data is tabulated and discussed in Criterion 4 of this report.

Table 4.A-6 2011 OSU WE Program Capstone Program Assessment Board Meeting Minutes• 6/03/2011 10:45 – 12:00 Rm 102

• Attending: Deere: A. Mortale, B. King; EPRI: S. McCracken; Cameron: D. Hannam; Babcock&Wilcox:S. Slack; OSU: D. Farson, D. Phillips, B. Alexandrov

• Slides were presented for 1st 30 min, after which the panel discussed curriculum topics and

suggestions for improving the curriculum and capstone course sequence.

• The suggestion was made that the welding lab equipment should be expanded to include other

manufacturer’s equipment besides Lincoln Electric. D. Phillips briefly described the intent to

incorporate a number of Miller systems in the weld booths and also mentioned the new

Motoman robot system, which is equipped with a Miller GMA welding system.

• The WE informational YouTube video created by one of this year’s capstone teams was presented.

7/29/2019 11_abet_we


23

One of the board members suggested that some means be found to include the video in this

year’s ABET report.

• A discussion of the current class sizes in WE (Sr: 22, Jr: 24) prompted a discussion of the role of

scholarships in recruiting out-of-state students. It was mentioned that the availability of

numerous WE UG scholarships helps to offset the increased out-of-state cost. D. Hannam

suggested that perhaps the program and scholarships could be advertised more and that

the new video could be distributed to high school advisors via DVD. It was mentioned that

the current YouTube accessibility probably reaches a more extensive audience and is cost

effective. A short and a longer version are both readily located by searching “Welding

Engineering Ohio State University” on YouTube.

4.B Student Outcomes AssessmentTable 4.B.1 lists the assessment processes used to gather the data upon which the evaluation of student outcomes is based. The frequency with which these assessment processes are carriedout, the expected level of attainment for each of the student outcomes and the extent to whicheach of the student outcomes is being attained are summarized. More discussion of theassessments in this table is provided below. Attainment level of 70% for coursework indicatesthat at least 70% of students achieved scores of 70% (grade of C-) or better on the applicableassessment instruments. The marginal assessment applies when the percentage of student scoringC- or better falls below 70% but at least 70% are still attaining a passing grade (score of 60%,grade of D) or better. The unacceptable assessment would apply when more than 30% of students are achieving failing scores on applicable instruments (score less than 60%, grade of E)

Table 4.B-2 lists the contribution of the required WE curriculum courses to the ABET and WE program student outcomes. It is evident from the data that all of the outcomes have four or morecourses that contribute to their attainment with outcome j (knowledge of contemporary issues)having the fewest and outcome a (ability to apply knowledge of mathematics, science, andengineering) having the most. Contemporary issues are predominantly addressed by the generaleducation curriculum courses which are not considered in this self-study.

Table 4.B-2 Degree of contribution of required courses to student outcomes 1= major, 2 = some,3 = small.

The required course WE 489 Industrial Experience I is worthy of note with regards tocontribution to outcomes. The value of this course as an ABET requirement has been debated bythe faculty from time to time and there was serious consideration to removing it from therequired curriculum at the time of the last curriculum revision completed in AY2006-7. One primary issue with this course is the variability of the summer jobs that the students are able toobtain. The level of economic activity in the US and the suitability of the qualifications of thestudents for the available jobs in any given year both impact the Industrial Experience outcomes.The most persuasive argument for the course is feedback from numerous individual studentsabout the significant contribution that the course makes to their welding engineering education.A summary of the student reports from the year 2010 is provided in Table 4.B-3 below. Also, toaccommodate the variability of work experiences inherent in this course, the format of the finalreport is being changed to require that students identify at least 2 ABET+WE student outcomesthat their job related most to (and at which level 1,2 or 3) and further explain how the jobexperience contributed to their attainment of these outcomes. With these modifications, we believe that the contribution of the WE489 course to each student’s attainment of identifiedlearning outcomes will be more readily assessed.

4.B-2 Senior class and PAB surveys

The senior class surveys are completed by students midway through their last quarter andthus represent student perspective of the effectiveness of the WE BS curriculum in facilitatingtheir attainment of the student outcomes. For compatibility, the outcomes used in all surveys(shown below the results charts) were the ones in use during the 2006-2007 survey. As described

above in Section 3.A, the outcomes used for ABET accreditation were changed from the prior extensive lists of WE-specific outcomes to the “standard” ABET 3.a)-3.k) outcomes,supplemented by 3 additional WE-specific outcomes WE L) – WE n). The student outcomesapplicable to results shown below were drawn from the prior extensive list of WE-specificoutcomes. They either completely or significantly overlap with the currently used ABET 3.a)-k)and WE-specific outcomes WE L) – WE n). This correspondence is shown in Section 4.B-2ainset below. For future surveys, we plan to modify the senior student surveys to exactlycorrespond to the outcomes currently in use by the program. For the student outcomes used inthe senior student surveys to date, the correspondence between the two sets of outcomes isdetailed in the Table 4.B-6 below.

Table 4.B-6 Relationship of senior student survey outcomes to currently-used student outcomes.

The outcomes currently used in program accreditation (ABET 3.a)-k) + WE L)-n) overlap with the

outcomes used in senior class surveys, with the exception of ABET (h), (i). Attainment of these

outcomes is documented by course-based assessments as summarized in Table 4.B-2

immediately above. In summary, the correspondence of current student outcomes to the ones

used in survey results presented elsewhere in section 4.B are:

ABET (a) is divided into 4 detailed areas by survey outcomes

ABET (b) is divided into 2 detailed areas by survey outcomes

ABET (c) is divided into 2 detailed areas by survey outcomes.

ABET (d) is divided into 2 detailed areas by survey outcomes.

ABET (e) is equivalent to a survey outcome

ABET (f) is partially covered by a survey outcome

ABET (g) is partially covered by a survey outcome

ABET (h),(i) are different from survey outcomes

ABET (j) is equivalent to a survey outcome

ABET (k) is partially covered by a survey outcome

WE(L),(m), (n) are all equivalent to a survey outcome

In detail, the correspondence between the survey outcomes and the ABET 3.a)-k) and WE L)-n)

outcomes are spelled out in the lists below. The bulleted survey outcomes are listed below the

production processes

(d) an ability to function on multi-disciplinary teams

Interact with engineering personnel, management, customers and the like to exchange ideas and to

offer information or receive technical advice on welding

Organize and present materials to technical peer groups, customers, plant personnel and

management

(e) an ability to identify, formulate, and solve engineering problems

Select, improve and develop processes, materials and designs that optimize welding fabrication and

production in a safe manner

(f) an understanding of professional and ethical responsibility

practice.

Apply new developments in the welding field to solve current welding problems and improve


In addition, three welding engineering-specific outcomes defined by the program are:

WELDENG (L) an ability to select and design welding materials, processes and inspection techniques

based on application, fabrication and service conditions



WELDENG (m) an ability to develop welding procedures that specify materials, processes, design and

inspection requirements

Establish welding procedures to guide production and welding personnel relative to specifications,

7/29/2019 11_abet_we

materials, processes, design and testing

WELDENG (n) an ability to design welded structures and components to meet application requirements


The student responses are listed in Tables 4.B-7 and 4.B-8 below. The PAB from the year 2011 was also surveyed for the same outcomes for comparison of student perceptions to industry

personnel who are familiar with student capabilities from capstone project interactions. TheLikert scale used in all of Tables 4.B-6, 4.B-7,4.B-8 and 4.B-9 was: not prepared=1; somewhat prepared=2; prepared=3; well prepared=4; very well prepared=5.

Overall, survey results shown in Table 4.B-7 below indicate that WE undergraduates felt prepared or better (i.e. well-prepared or very well-prepared) in all aspects (processes, design,materials and NDE) of welding engineering. The processes topic (outcome 1.,average 4.45)received the highest rating and the NDE topic (outcome 4, average 3.9) received the lowest withmaterials (outcome 2.) and design (outcome 3.) receiving intermediate ratings. This NDE ratingstands in counter-point to the 2011 PAB ratings (Tables 4.B-8), which gave the highest rating(4.75/5) to the expertise of the students in the NDE technique-related outcome 4. The PAB rated

the students well-prepared in all other outcomes 1.,2., and 3. In any case, the students have thesmallest number of course hours (4 hrs) in the NDE topic 4. compared to the other areas, whilethe subject matter is technically complex (particularly acoustics), so the student rating is perhapsnot surprising.

1. The basic operating theory of the various material joining processes including arc,resistance, solid state and high energy density

2. The foundations of welding design: heat flow, stress, structural analysis, and fitness for service

3. Materials principles and how materials are influenced by joining processes

4. Operating principles and analysis methods for the various destructive and nondestructivetechniques used to evaluate welds

The senior student ratings of capability in weld engineering-specific student outcomes shown inTable 4.B-9 indicates that students believe they are capable or better in all of the listedcapabilities. The lowest ranked capability 3 speaks to the ability to carry out basic researchrelated to welding engineering. The student perception that they are not as well prepared in thisresearch function as some of the other listed capabilities which are more relevant to welding

engineering applications is likely accurate. The PAB rankings of student capabilities in Table4.B-10 are in general correspondence with the student ratings.

4.C Capstone Course Assessments

In the WE program, the capstone course sequence is based on industry-suggested topicsand the student activities are all organized around projects that address these topics. Based on atopic self-selected from a pool of possible choices, the teams write a proposal to the industrysponsor who suggested that topic, execute the project tasks and create various written and oralreports on the project status and results. Because of this concentration on execution of projectson industry-suggested topics that are likely to be similar to welding engineering tasks that BSgraduates might face in their career, there is additional focus on collecting data that quantifieshow well students are able to apply WE skills to successfully complete capstone projects.

For compatibility with past capstone student surveys, the outcomes used in all capstonestudent surveys (shown below the results charts) were the same as ones in use during the 2006-2007 survey. As described above in Section 3.A, the outcomes used for ABET accreditationwere changed from the prior extensive lists of WE-specific outcomes to the “standard” ABET3.a)-3.k) outcomes, supplemented by 3 additional WE-specific outcomes WE L) – WE n). Thestudent outcomes with results shown below were drawn from the prior extensive list of WE-specific outcomes. They either completely or significantly overlap with the currently used ABET

3.a)-k) and WE-specific outcomes WE L) – WE n). This correspondence is shown in Table 4.C-1inset below.Table 4.C-1 Relationship of capstone student survey outcomes to currently-used student outcomes.

The outcomes currently used in program accreditation (ABET 3.a)-k) + WE L)-n) overlap withthe outcomes used in senior class surveys, with the exception of ABET (h), (i). Attainment of these outcomes are documented by course-based assessments completed at other points in the program. In summary, the correspondence of current student outcomes to the ones used in survey

results presented elsewhere in section 4.B are:ABET (a) is equivalent to 1 survey outcomeABET (b) is equivalent to 1 survey outcomeABET (c) is divided into detailed areas by 2 survey outcomes.ABET (d) is divided into detailed areas by 2 survey outcomes.ABET (e) is divided into detailed areas by 3 survey outcomesABET (f) is partially covered by a survey outcomeABET (g) is divided into detailed areas by 9 survey outcomesABET (h),(i), (j) are different from survey outcomesABET (k) is divided into detailed areas by 4 survey outcomesWE (L) is divided into detailed areas by 2 survey outcomes

WE (m), (n) are different from survey outcomes

In detail, the correspondence between the survey outcomes and the ABET 3.a)-k) and WE L)-n)outcomes are listed below.

Table 4.C-2 below shows that students rated the capabilities based on their capstone experiencein the range of 4 and above with the 2010-11 ratings being marginally but consistently higher than the 2008-09 ratings. Note that the Likert scale used in Tables 4.B-8 and 4.B-9 was: not prepared=1; somewhat prepared=2; prepared=3; well prepared=4; very well prepared=5. Thusthe minimum rating of 4 indicates that students felt very well prepared to perform all of theindicated functions based on capstone course activities.

Table 4.C-3 also shows that students generally rated their capability to successfully complete

their capstone course project in the range of 4 and above by. Note that the weighting of the ratingscale for these questions was based on agreement with the stated capability: NA: not agree=1;SA: somewhat agree=2; A: agree=3; VA: very much agree=4; EA: extremely agree=5. Thus arating of 4 indicates that students very much agree that they have improved their skill in the pertinent ability based on capstone course activities.The lowest-ranked aspects of capstone courses were related to cost-analysis (3.8; item 4 below)teamwork (3.8; items 6 ) and communications (3.7; item 7). However, even the lowest rankingsindicate that students “agree” to “very much agree” that the capstone course provided theindicated capability.

4.D WE BS curriculum revision

The Welding Engineering undergraduate curriculum was revised in 2007, 2 years after the most recent ABET review, in order to:

1.) Strengthen the curriculum in some areas that were recommended by the ABETcontinuous improvement process;

2.) Capitalize on closer association with the Industrial and Systems Engineering Programsince department consolidations in 1995;

3.) Make use of flexibility provided in the selection of core engineering courses due tothe change to the engineering core requirements in 1999;

4.) Formalize some changes that have been necessitated by curriculum revisions insupporting programs; and

5.) Address an issue relative to the retirement of one faculty member and the resultingloss of a faculty slot.

Total Credits in Program 197 197(195)

There was no change to the total hours of the Welding Engineering Program other thanthe addition of two credit hours of GEC to raise the total program hours from 195 to 197. Tworequired Welding Engineering courses were eliminated – WE 400(3) Chemistry of Welding in

the sophomore year and WE 640(3) Welding Production in the senior year. A situation withteaching the WE 400 course has arisen due to a faculty retirement. Recommendations fromcritical review from the faculty, program assessment board and students have revealed that thiscourse is outdated, has not been of great value, and it was no longer actively taught after theretirement of Professor Howden. It was determined that the WE 640 course could be replaced bycontent contributed by ISE courses that were adopted into the curriculum. In particular, ISE350(3) Manufacturing Engineering, ISE 504(3) Engineering Economics Analysis and ISE 410(4)Industrial Quality Control were integrated into the WE program. The ISE courses strengthenedthe program in the overall manufacturing and business area as has been recommended by theABET assessment processes. Credit hour wise, the ISE 350(3) and 504(3) credit hours replacedthe WE 400(3) and 640(3) credit hours. The ISE 406(4) was adopted as a Selected Engineering

Core – Math and Statistics elective for Welding Engineering.

Within the WE curriculum, the heavily subscribed WE 641(3) Welding Codes,Specifications and Standards was changed from a WE technical elective status to a requiredstatus. This was also the result of constituency recommendation via the Program AssessmentBoard within the ABET improvement process. These hours were accommodated by change of the technical elective total elective credit hours from 21 to 15.

Two additional WE curriculum changes were required due to changes in supporting programs. In the case of the Introduction to Engineering courses, the Engineering 182requirement was changed to the new Engineering 183 number for consistency. Also, MSErevised their curriculum the time of this WE revision. In consultation with MSE, WE adoptedthe new MSE 525(3), 581.04(2) and 543(3) as required courses in place of the previous MSE541(3), 542(3) and 542.02(2) courses.

4.E Program Educational Objectives Revision

The 2005 ABET review of the program was completed with student outcomes in use upto that time. The assessment of student attainment of the outcomes and ABET reporting washindered by the fact that the outcomes were not the same of the ABET Criterion 3 a)-k)outcomes, necessitating a cumbersome numerical mapping between the program outcomes and

7/29/2019 11_abet_we


40

the ABET outcomes. Comparison of the prior welding engineering learning outcomes to theABET (a-k) outcomes showed that the ABET outcomes were the same as the welding programstudent outcomes. The ABET outcomes were more general in nature while the welding outcomeswere quite similar but written to be more specific to welding engineering. Given this fact, adecision was made to transition the WE program assessment to the ABET Criterion 3 outcomes,supplemented with three additional outcomes which specifically speak to welding engineeringexpertise. This transition was done after the 2006-2007 academic year. The current set of (a-n)outcomes thus covers the same learning aspects while being far fewer in number (14 outcomes

vs. 21 prior outcomes) and more consistent with the ABET evaluation process. To summarizethis revision, Table 4.C-2 compares the prior learning outcomes to the ABET a)-k),supplemented with 3 additional WE l)-m) outcomes. Inspection of Table 4.C-2 shows that therevised outcomes, though fewer in number, are more general and thus cover the same topics asthe prior outcomes.

3 WE placement data

Placement data for the years since the last ABET program review are displayed in Table2.B-4. Historically, WE graduates have been awarded salaries that are at or above the college of engineering average and this trend was generally maintained during the current ABET reportingcycle, with the exception of AY09-10 and AY10-11. During those years, there was a dramaticdecrease in rate at which students reported salaries and a decline in the reported salaries, which

averaged about $3000 or 5.2% below the college average. The reasons for these declines are notknown and are currently being investigated. Students from the latest two time periods wererecently contacted in May 2011 and requested to report their starting salaries, although noadditional data has been reported. Currently, strategies for obtaining increased reporting rate of salaries by students are being considered

CRITERION 5. CURRICULUM

5.A Program Curriculum

Table 5-1 describes the plan of study for students in the WE program including a

recommended schedule by year and term along with average section enrollments for all coursesin the program. Note that this table applies to the current quarter-based curriculum for the twoyears preceding the current visit. Beginning in autumn 2012, The Ohio State University willtransition to a semester-based academic calendar. The semester-based WE curriculum isdescribed in Appendix E to this report, which contains semester versions of Table 5.A-1, 5.A-3and Table 5.1.

5.A.2 Relation of Curriculum to Program Educational Objectives

The WE curriculum aligns with the program educational objectives listed in section 2.B andsupports attainment of the student outcomes. The relationship of the curriculum to each objective

is summarized below.

Objective 1 – Welding engineers will be able to utilize the fundamental principles of engineering

science and mathematics, and are aware of the underlying historic, social, ethical and aesthetic aspects

of engineering.

The fundamental principles of engineering science and mathematics are addressed mostheavily in the freshman year of the curriculum. Five courses in mathematics, 3 in physics, 2 inchemistry, 2 in engineering mechanics, 2 in electrical engineering and 1 in materials science areall contribute heavily to fundamental principles of engineering science and mathematics. Thesefundamentals serve as the foundation on which the subsequent lecture and laboratory courses build to create increased depth of understanding that is required to utilize these fundamental principles. Awareness of historic, social, ethical and aesthetic aspects of engineering is promoted by completion of the 35-credit general education curriculum, including courses inhistorical studies, arts and humanities, social science, ethics and social diversity. The richcultural and artistic environment at a comprehensive university such as OSU also contributes toawareness and appreciation of historic, social, ethical and aesthetic aspects of engineering.

Objective 2 – Welding engineers will have knowledge of the fundamental theory of the process,

design, materials and testing aspects of welding.

Most of the required welding engineering lecture courses contribute extensively to providing the knowledge specified in Objective 2. The 4 areas: processes, design, materials and

testing have long been considered to form the basis of welding engineering. The WE-specificcurriculum begins WE300 which surveys and introduces these four topics. The other requiredcourses contribute further depth into these areas, either individually or in combinations.

Objective 3 – Welding engineers will be able to apply their fundamental welding engineering

knowledge in an integrated fashion to solve diverse practical problems in the welding and joining field.

The 3-course senior capstone design sequence required in the curriculum contributesheavily to practice in application of fundamental knowledge to solve industry problems. The

7/29/2019 11_abet_we


44

philosophy of the WE capstone is to undertake projects which address problems contributed byindustrial sponsors. The student teams formulate proposals, undertake work to generatenecessary data or information and create reports and presentations as part of these projects. Thesummer internship required by the program is also directed at providing students with real-worldexperience in a welding or materials joining functions.

Objective 4 – Welding engineers will be able to communicate effectively in written, oral and

informal forms with a variety of audiences.

The WE curriculum requires learning of effective communications skills at a number of points. This begins with 10 hrs of required courses work in the GEC, continues with technicalreport writing in MSE581.04 (a course which was created to replace and improve on an earlier English department course in technical writing). Communication instruction culminates in thefinal quarter of the capstone sequence, which requires a written proposal and progress and finalreports, oral progress and final presentations and a poster presentation. The policy of the programis to enter all final project reports in the James F Lincoln Foundation Welding Awards Contestand all final project posters to the Poster Competition held at the American Welding Societyconvention. The reports and posters have historically been quite successful in these competitionssince the inception of this requirement in the previous ABET review cycle.

Objective 5 – Welding engineers will be able to work effectively in independent and collaborative


Most of the university curriculum emphasizes independent work by its nature.Collaborative work is required in most of the laboratory courses in the curriculum, in part because of the necessity of sharing experimental equipment. Because of this limitation,completion of laboratory exercises is customarily done by teams of 2 or three students. This isthe case in WE550, WE651, WE661, WE662 and the lab portion of WE631. The lab work inWE350 and WE351 is done individually since the objective of these courses is development of individual welding skills. Also, all capstone projects are completed by 3 student teams.

5.A.3 Relation of Curriculum to Student Outcomes

The ways in which the curriculum and its associated prerequisite structure support theattainment of each of the student outcomes listed in Section 3.A are detailed below. Table 4.B-2(repeated as Table 5.A-1 below) lists the contribution of the required WE curriculum courses tothe ABET and WE program student outcomes. It is evident from the data that all of theoutcomes have four or more courses that contribute to their attainment with outcome j(knowledge of contemporary issues) having the fewest and outcome a (ability to applyknowledge of mathematics, science, and engineering) having the most.

7/29/2019 11_abet_we


45

Table 5.A-1 Degree of contribution of required courses to student outcomes 1= major, 2 = some,3 = small

.

(a) an ability to apply knowledge of mathematics, science, and engineering This student outcome is highly related to the first half of Program Educational Objective 1.Much of the freshman curriculum (including 5 courses in mathematics, 3 in physics, 2 inchemistry, 1 in thermodynamics, 2 in engineering mechanics, 2 in electrical engineering and1 in materials science) are all contribute heavily to understanding of fundamental principles

of engineering science and mathematics. The welding engineering curriculum deals withapplication of this fundamental knowledge to understanding of the processes, materials,design and testing aspects of welding. The capstone sequence and the summer internshiprequirements are directed specifically at application of this knowledge.

(b) an ability to design and conduct experiments, as well as to analyze and interpret dataMuch of the engineering curriculum is aimed at providing the understanding of various physical phenomena and systems required by this outcome. Lab classes are based onconducting and reporting experiments. The capstone projects are predominantly experimentaland are judged to provide major support to this outcome. Also, the statistical design of experiments, analysis of data and evaluation of processes is specifically addressed in ISE410Industrial Quality Control.

(c) an ability to design a system, component, or process to meet desired needsThe welding process classes (WE500, WE550, WE600, WE601, WE651) support welding process and system design. The welding metallurgy course and lab (WE611/661) makesmajor contributions to welding component and process design. The welding design courses(WE620, WE621) contribute strongly to component and process design. The industry problems addressed by capstone projects in WE690-1-2 address welding problems that fall

7/29/2019 11_abet_we


46

into these categories, considering welding metallurgy issues to divide into component and/or process design.

(d) an ability to function on multi-disciplinary teams

Major contributions to teamwork are made by laboratory classes ISE350 and the internshipclass which requires a position in a welding-related organization. The laboratory classes allinvolve some degree of teamwork since exercises are generally completed the by student labteams on shared equipment.

(e) an ability to identify, formulate, and solve engineering problemsMuch of the engineering curriculum is aimed at providing the understanding of various physical phenomena and systems required by this outcome. The engineering capstone designcourses WE690-1-2 provide experience directly targeted to this outcome.

(f) an understanding of professional and ethical responsibility

A major contribution to this outcome is made by the GEC requirement for 5 credit hours inthe ethics category. This requirement is not summarized in the above table since there are anumber of GEC courses which can be used to satisfy the requirement. Discussions in 6welding engineering engineering classes are judged to make some or minor contributions to

this outcome.

(g) an ability to communicate effectively

The laboratory class MSE581.04 concentrates intensively on report writing. Written reportsare also required by WE489, WE601,WE651, WE661, and all 3 capstone sequence courses.


and societal context The GEC courses provide the breadth of education required by this student outcome but arenot included in the summary shown in Table 5.A-1. Several MSE and WE courses are judgedto provide contributions to this outcome.

(i) a recognition of the need for, and an ability to engage in life-long learning

The GEC courses are judged to provide insight into subjects that will awaken in students theneed for lifelong learning and provide them with an introduction that is necessary for further exploration. In the MSE and WE curriculum, contributions are judged to be made in courseswhere an introduction is made in a technical area where there is particularly extensive depthfor further exploration.

(j) a knowledge of contemporary issues

Knowledge of contemporary issues is judged to be provided by GEC courses. Several WEcourses are considered to provide instruction in content that pertains to issues related towelding engineering. The capstone sequence is judged to be particularly relevant since the project problems are submitted by industry sponsors as relevant to their current concerns.

(k) an ability to use the techniques, skills, and modern engineering tools necessary for engineering practice.

Many courses in the required curriculum have content related to use of modern engineeringtechniques, skill or tools.

7/29/2019 11_abet_we


47

WELDENG (l) an ability to select and design welding materials, processes and inspectiontechniques based on application, fabrication and service conditions

This outcome is written to summarize the OSU WE program’s perspective on the field of welding engineering. As such, all of the WE courses make at least some contribution to it.

WELDENG (m) an ability to develop welding procedures that specify materials, processes,

design and inspection requirementsProcedure development has been suggested by many alumni and PAB members as an area in

which OSU welding engineers need expertise. Many courses provide the necessaryknowledge for this function. The course WE641 specifically addresses WE procedures andtheir qualification in the context of several important welding codes and standards.

WELDENG (n) an ability to design welded structures and components to meet application

requirementsThe design of welded structures and components to serve in a given application is addressed by content in many of WE courses. WE621 addresses the expected mechanical designaspects whereas WE641 discusses welding requirements in a number of codes and standards.The capstone project problems submitted by corporate sponsors involve design from amechanical, materials or process standpoint.

5.A.4 Prerequisite structure of required WE courses

An advising sheet showing the sequence of required courses in the WE curriculum isshown below in Table 5.A-2

5.A.5 Satisfaction of specific requirements for curricular areas.

The number of credit hours in the program relevant to the various curricular areas aresummarized in Table 5.1 The credit hours of mathematics and basic sciences courses

substantially exceed the minimum (49 credits vs. 32 credits minimum) and slightly exceed the percentage of total hours in the curriculum (25.5% vs. 25% minimum). The number of engineering credit hours and the percentage of the total curriculum far exceed the minimum (109credits vs. 48 credits minimum and 56.8% vs. 37.5% minimum).

5.A.6 Design Experience

The principal design experience provided by the WE curriculum is the three-coursecapstone design sequence - WE690, WE691, WE692 - which is scheduled throughout the senior year. This course is project-based with the proposal, execution and reporting phases beingnominally divided up into the three quarters. Candidate projects are solicited from a pool of potential sponsors over the spring and summer preceding the capstone year. In the first class of WE690, students are assigned to 3-member teams and the teams vote on their project selections.The WE690 instructor then assigns teams to projects based on the results of this vote. A member of the WE faculty is assigned as advisor to each of the project teams at this time. The teamsdevelop a written proposal and a make a presentation to the class (with their industrial sponsorsin attendance) at the end of autumn quarter.

7/29/2019 11_abet_we


48

The winter quarter WE691 class is devoted to execution of the project work.Experimental work is done with existing equipment, with equipment provided by the industrysponsor and installed in the EJTC labs or at the sponsor facilities. The latter case requires one or more trips by the project team to the sponsor location. At the end of winter quarter, the teamwrites a progress report and makes a presentation to the class.

The spring quarter WE692 class is devoted to completion of the project execution andreporting of the project results. The written final report is graded by the faculty member advising

the project team with input from the project sponsor. The team makes a final classroom presentation with the project sponsors in attendance.

The main advantage of this industry-based capstone course is the relevance of the projects to actual problems that industry sponsors need solved. The projects and industrysponsors are refreshed annually to keep the project current with existing industry needs andinterests. The fact that the capstone design project sequence is scheduled during the senior year allows the project teams to apply welding engineering knowledge from their prior and concurrentclasses to their projects. Since the welding industry depends significantly on codes andstandards, capstone projects often involve exposure to these codes.

A list of capstone design project course project titles and sponsors for the two past yearsis displayed in Table 5.A-2.

The WE curriculum and the contribution of the courses to the various curricular areas(Math & Basic Sciences, General Education, Other) is summarized in Table 5-1.

5.A.7 Curricular Materials Available for Review

During the accreditation visit, curricular portfolio for each required and elective coursewill be available for review. The portfolios include an ABET-format syllabus, an outcomes profile sheet that explains how the course relates to the ABET and program outcomes ascribed to

it, the course notes used in lectures and examples of student homeworks and exams.

5.B Course Syllabi

Appendix A contains a syllabus for each course used to satisfy the mathematics, science, anddiscipline-specific requirements required by Criterion 5.

5.C Semester Curriculum

The university has a schedule to convert from a quarter calendar to a semester calendar beginning in Summer 1012. For most students, this change will have an effect beginning in

Autumn, 2012. The change has its most direct impact in the curriculum of all university programs. In all cases, the policy of this conversion has been to avoid adding to deleting topicsfrom classes to the maximum extent possible. As a result, the number of credit hours required tocomplete the WE semester curriculum will be 129, in a ratio of 0.672 to the current requirementof 192 quarter hours. The semester advising sheet are also shown below and the syllabi areshown in Appendix A.

An important aspect of the quarter-semester conversion is the advising of students on their course selections through the transition period. The program has devoted considerable attentionto this issue to ensure that quality and continuity of the curriculum is maintained for all studentsthroughout the transition period. The there will be three cohorts of WE students who begin their undergraduate studies on quarters and then finish them on semesters. The advising sheets thatshow the sequence of courses for each of these student cohorts are shown in Tables 5.C-1-5.C-3.The final table 5.C-4 displays the semester curriculum advising sheet. These sheets can becompared with the quarter advising sheet in Table 5.A-3.

As a policy, the conversions have generally been done with a credit hour ratio of 2/3 tominimize alteration of the degree of emphasis devoted to any particular subject. For the corecurriculum, the 5 quarter, 25-credit math sequence MA151-MA152-MA153-MA254-MA255,which covered calculus through differential equations is replaced with a 14-hour sequenceMA1151-MA1152-MA2177 which covers the same subjects with a slight decrease of theMA254 and MA255 topics. The 3-quarter, 15-credit physics sequence PH131-PH132-PH133 isexactly replaced with the 2 semester, 10-credit sequence PH1131-PH1132.

For the welding engineering curriculum, the 3-quarter, 10-credit process sequenceWE500/550, WE600, WE601 is replaced by the two semester, 8-hour WE4001-WE4002, bothof which include laboratory sections. The 2 quarter, 8-credit design sequence WE620-WE621 isreplaced by the 2 semester, 7-credit sequence WE4201 – WE4202. This expansion is hours is justified since the design course sequence has been overcrowded with topics since it wasdecreased from a 3-quarter sequence some years ago. The welding metallurgy courses were

7/29/2019 11_abet_we


52

converted from the 3-quarter, 11-credit the WE610-WE611/611-WE612/662 sequence isconverted to a 2-semester, 8-credit sequence WE4101/4611-WE4012/4612.

CRITERION 6. FACULTY

6A. Faculty Qualifications

Welding Engineering is comprised of diverse technical areas of materials (principallymetals and polymers), processes technology, mechanical design, nondestructive evaluation andquality assurance. The seven current program faculty members have similarly diverseeducational backgrounds and experience as summarized in Table 6-1 and Appendix B. Broadlyspeaking, 3 of the faculty have specialization in welding metallurgy, 1 in polymer materialswelding, 2 in welding processes and 1 in nondestructive evaluation. Five faculty members aretenured associate or full professors, 1 is a clinical associate professor and 1 is a research scientist.Most of the faculty members have industrial work experience prior to coming to the program andall have some amount of industrial consulting experience. All 7 faculty members have a PhD in afield related to their program specialization. Five faculty members hold one or more Fellowawards from technical societies that they are active in. The WE faculty have active industrialinteractions. These may involve graduate thesis sponsorship and interactions through the Center for Integrated Materials Joining Science for Energy Applications but also often are related toundergraduate summer internships and senior capstone design project support.

6B. Faculty workload

The welding engineering faculty members are all active in teaching, research and service.The data in Table 6-2 summarize the courses taught by faculty in the previous 2 years. Theteaching load carried by the faculty is significant relative to college averages. The 5 tenured and1 clinical faculty members teach a total of 11 required undergraduate lecture courses and 12elective courses per year that are generally at the undergraduate/graduate level, for an average of over 3.5 lecture courses per year per faculty. The other courses listed in Table 6-2 are laboratorycourses, non-lecture courses and distance learning sections of on-campus lectures. Theassociated teaching effort varies widely among these courses. For example, the enrollment indistance learning sections ranges from approximately 1 to 10 students per offering. In total, these6 faculty members have grade responsibility for an average of just over 8 courses per year at thelevel of undergraduate or undergraduate/graduate.

The expectations for faculty workload are for a balanced effort in teaching and research anda service workload commensurate with program needs. Because of the relatively small facultysize and the specialization of the WE faculty into their respective areas, the concept of providingreduced teaching responsibility in turn for research release-time salary contributions is notfeasible. Consequently, course assignments do not depend on research activity or release-timesalary contributions.

6C. Faculty Size

The program has 5 tenured faculty member, 1 clinical faculty member and 1 research facultymember. By virtue of their research or industrial experience, the faculty members havequalifications in multiple areas and are able to teach all of the course topics that the curriculum

7/29/2019 11_abet_we


63

requires. The faculty members listed below in regular font are primary instructors in the labeledsubject area and those listed in italics contribute to instruction in the subject areas by a portion of content in courses that they teach.

Welding Processes Welding DesignFarson, Phillips, Benatar, Alexandrov Benatar Metallurgy/Polymers Nondestructive Evaluation, Q/ALippold, Benatar, Babu, Phillips, Alexandrov Rokhlin, Benatar, Phillip, Farson

The number of Welding Engineering faculty is adequate for faculty to maintain closecontact with the undergraduate students. While the MSE department has a full-timeundergraduate student advisor with regular weekly office hours at EJTC, various members of thefaculty are active in student advising. In particular, Prof. Babu advises the local studentAmerican Welding Society chapter and various undergraduate student activities. In past threeyears, such student activities have included a student NASA Moonbuggy race team and (in the 5years prior to that), a NASA zero gravity flight experiment team. Other faculty (Farson, Lippold)have assisted students in fund-raising and fabrication of the moon buggy and the microgravity

experiment.

The currently-ongoing search for an assistant professor in the welding engineering area issoliciting candidates in one or more of the following areas: computational materials modeling, process modeling, structural design, structural integrity, fitness-for service, welding processtechnology, and welding metallurgy. The addition of this faculty member will bring the programclinical and tenured faculty number to 7.

6D. Professional Development

Support for faculty development for assistant professors is built into the startup package.

New faculty members are given reduced teaching loads with the expectation that they will usethe time to establish their research programs. In addition, the department provides travelfunds for professional activities (professional society activities, conferences, visiting potential research sponsors including industry, workshops, etc.). These activities arefunded primarily from gifts to the department as discussed in section 8.B.1.

Opportunities and funding for professional development in instructional technology are provided by the MSE department, the college through the Engineering Education InnovationCenter and by the University, primarily through the Office of Information Technology. Examplesof professional development activities sponsored by these organizations include on-line coursewebsite tool (Carmen) instruction, student information database systems training, audio/visual

instructional tools and curriculum modification to facilitate integration of instructionaltechnology. Attendance at professional meetings and conferences sponsored by various technicalsocieties and organizations is individually funded by senior faculty members from their research projects of department discretionary accounts.

Eligible senior faculty members are encouraged to take advantage of the university’s professional leave program described in section 8.D. All faculty members are also encouraged to participate in university sponsored teaching seminars and workshops. All are encouraged to

guidance of the program, and in the development and implementation of. Describe the rolesof others on campus, e.g., dean or provost, with respect to these areas.

The processes for the evaluation, assessment, and continuing improvement of the weldingengineering program, including its educational objectives and student outcomes are controlled primarily by the program faculty members. A good illustration of the autonomy accorded thefaculty in this regard is the distance education master of science degree. This degree was basedon on-line curriculum materials developed by defense-related US government-funding won byfaculty-lead proposal. Further curriculum development and computer technology implementationwas subsequently supported by the college of engineering and by proposals to the universityOffice of Information Technology Describe the roles of others on campus, e.g., dean or provost,

CRITERION 7. FACILITIES7.A. Offices, Classrooms and Laboratories

Program teaching and research laboratories, graduate teaching lecture classrooms andfaculty offices have been located in Edison Joining Technology Center (EJTC). This is a shared

facility with the Edison Welding Institute (EWI), the largest welding and materials joiningengineering consulting company in North America. The EJTC facility is located on theUniversity’s West Campus (connected to Main campus by bus service at six-minute intervals).Features of the west campus facilities include:

- modern, attractive accommodations for the program and visitors (conference rooms,class rooms, and easy access/parking)

- state-of-the-art welding and robotic equipment in teaching laboratories- undergraduate student study and computer lab space that is closely-integrated with

faculty offices to encourage faculty-student interaction and provide a congenialatmosphere for student group study and interaction

- shared use of very extensive Edison Welding Institute (EWI) facilities and

equipment located in the same building (a brief description of EWI staff, facilities andresearch activities is attached)

The program also has access to some faculty offices and a student computing lab on Maincampus in the Watts Hall (home of the MS&E department). Most of the undergraduateclassroom lecture instruction is provided in Watts Hall.

EJTC was constructed in 1996 at a total cost of $9,000,000. The WE program occupies32,000 square feet of the building (25% of the total). The WE program invested $600,000 inoffice and lab furnishings, equipment and furniture moving, utility connections and other expenses. The program functions and floor space allocations within the EJTC and Watts Hall

facilities are summarized in Tables 7.A-1 and 7.A-2.

7.A.1 Teaching Lab Equipment

A strong point of the EJTC facility is the excellent welding and robotic equipment in itsteaching laboratories, summarized in Appendix C in Table C-1. Good relationships with weldingrobot and welding equipment companies have allowed the program to maintain the latesttechnology in teaching labs through donations and discount consignments. The large majority of the welding robotic systems and manual/semi-automatic welding systems mentioned below areat most several years old. The manual and semiautomatic welding systems which equip the 12manual welding booths are replaced annually by Lincoln Electric on a donation and reduced-costconsignment basis. The Motoman Arcworld robotic system was recently consigned (in late 2010)to EWI in exchange for membership fees with a stipulation that it be located in on OSU side of

the facility for easy student access. Equipment which is shared between research and teachingfunctions is described in the next section. We utilize the Board of Regents equipment fund every biennium and receive a varying equipment allocation based on faculty size and enrollment($55,000 in the years 2005-2008).

7.A.2 Shared Teaching/Research Equipment

A portion of the equipment that is used for education was purchased with research fundsand is used primarily for research, but is made available on a part-time basis for teaching. Thedepartment is able to offer laboratory experiences in topics which do not warrant investment of program funds, but which nonetheless significantly benefit the student’s education. Relevant

equipment is summarized in Table C-2

7A.3 Computer labs

The program has well-equipped student computing lab facilities. A state-of-the-artWindows networked environment with large collections of engineering and general purposesoftware provide students the opportunity to become familiar with the latest engineeringcomputational tools. The hardware (Table C-3) and software (Table C-4) are divided between a

7/29/2019 11_abet_we


71

main facility at EJTC and a secondary facility in Watts Hall building on Main Campus. Studentshave access to the computer facilities on a 24-hour basis seven days a week throughout thecalendar year.

The software packages listed in Table C-4 are available from any of the individual

computer systems. They represent an array of engineering software, including computer-aideddesign, finite element analysis, general scientific/mathematical computing, general officecomputing and other packages.

7.B Computing Resources

7.B.1 Web Servers

The program has access to three web servers where personal web pages and class web pages are posted. The web address dedicated to the WE program is http://www.matsceng.ohio-state.edu/weldingengineering. Faculty are provided with a default faculty web page on the MSE

department server and assistance in creating and loading web page content. The universitycourse management servers at carmen.osu.edu are used for on-line course management. Alllecture courses offered by the program have on-line component on this server. These resourcesare also used extensively by the WE program primarily to support its Distance Learning Master of Science in Welding Engineering degree offering.

7.B.1 Computer Networking

The EJTC computer labs computers are inter-connected by a Local Area Network (LAN)infrastructure as shown in Table C-5.

7.C Guidance in use of the tools, equipment, computing resources and laboratories

In laboratory classes taught in the curriculum, this function is provided primarily byinstructor or the teaching assistant. Laboratory classes where this type of guidance is providedinclude WE550, WE631, WE635, WE638, WE651, WE655, WE656, WE661, and WE662.WE350 and WE351 are the two classes where all undergraduate students are taught manualwelding. This instruction if provided by an EWI welding technician, partially paid by thedepartment for this service. In WE620, some lectures are taught in the computer laboratory sothat students can use the computer software as it is being demonstrated on a computer projector.In the capstone course sequence WE690-WE691-WE692, guidance in the use of the relevantequipment is primarily provided by the EJTC Facility Manager Jennifer Conrad, the faculty

member advising the capstone team or a graduate research associate that they may assign to provide this assistance. Since all classes in the curriculum are taught with materials displayed ona computer projector, the use of relevant software is readily incorporated into lectures.

7.D. Maintenance and Upgrading of Facilities

The EJTC facility is owned by EWI and the OSU leases the portion used for the WE program. The building maintenance is provided by EWI. The WE laboratory equipment that is

7/29/2019 11_abet_we


72

not located in shared-use research laboratories is maintained by the facility manager Jennifer Conrad. As mentioned above, most of the manual welding booth systems are procured onreduced rate consignments and are updated periodically as the consignments expire. Thisensures that the booths are equipped with up-to-date systems. The computer laboratory hardwareis replaced annually or semi-annually and the software is maintained at the latest available

version. This periodic updating is enabled by the technology fee which assessed to all students($150 for undergraduates in 2008) in the college of engineering.

7.E Library Services

OSU’s multidisciplinary Science and Engineering Library (SEL) opened in 1993 housesthe merged collections of the former Engineering, Materials Engineering, Astronomy,Chemistry, Physics, and Mathematics libraries. It is the largest subject-specific library of theOSU Columbus-campus libraries, which includes 10 other locations. The SEL has five storiesand just under 70,000 square feet, seating for 1169 (including 8 reservable study rooms) and 115 public networked PC’s, and 24x7 access 360 days a year. Staff assistance is provided 8am – 11:30pm. SEL is on W. 18th Ave., within two blocks of all engineering departments located onmain campus. The science and engineering library’s collection totals over 262,705 volumes (asof July 2009).

Reference librarians (4.5) in SEL perform collection development; provide instruction atthe desk and the classroom; educate patrons in the use of the electronic OSU catalog,OhioLINK (the statewide information system), various databases available through the OSUcatalog and OhioLINK; prepare handouts and web links tailored to OSU services andcollections, and give orientation lectures and tours as requested.

Whenever possible, the teaching and development of information skills is integrated intothe general curriculum (ex: design classes; Engineering Survey 100). Research and InternetGuides (such as Information Gateway, Net.Tutor, and Citation Style Guides ) are available onthe OSUL website (http://library.osu.edu/sites/guides/). The Gateway lists resources by

category, background, directories, current information, etc.) for a wide range of subjects; Net.Tutor is a tutorial on effective use of the web-based library information services. Librariansalso assist users online thru email, Ask-a-Librarian, and an interactive Chat service.

OSU participates in OhioLINK, a statewide consortia of 80+ academic institutionsranging from two year colleges to Research I institutions. OhioLINK features a central catalog,statewide lending and borrowing, statewide distribution of selected databases and electronic journals, and a statewide contract for purchasing of books. SEL is a popular pick-up and drop-off location for OhioLINK loans because of hours and location. An analysis of holdings amongOhioLINK institutions shows that each institution has titles unique to the consortium thus eachcampus enriches resources for all others.

CRITERION 8. INSTITUTIONAL SUPPORT

The following sections include descriptions of the processes that apply to the Department of Materials Science and Engineering, including the Welding Engineering program. The

administration processes and institutional support are essentially the same for the MaterialsScience and Engineering program.

8.A. Leadership

Administration of the Welding Engineering degree programs was moved from theDepartment of Integrated Systems Engineering (ISE) to the Materials Science and Engineering(MSE) Department during AY 2009/2010. Shortly before this realignment occurred, theDepartment of Industrial, Welding and Systems Engineering was renamed to be the Departmentof Integrated Systems Engineering. This name was chosen to be consistent with a shift in focusof that department’s research and instruction away from welding-related activities. At the same

time, the college leadership realized that the instructional and research interests, activities andleadership of the MSE undergraduate and graduate programs were better aligned with the WE programs.

The Materials Science and Engineering Department has proven to be a good fit for theWelding Engineering Program and the program is flourishing in the MSE department. WEresearch activities are benefitting from faculty collaboration and the WE program faculty staffinghas been stabilized. When the WE degree programs were moved to the MSE department, anagreement was made with the college to allocate 3 additional tenured faculty positions to the WE program. Subsequently, a search for a tenure-track faculty in the welding processes area wasinitiated and a clinical faculty instructor position was created and filled (David Phillips,Associate Professor-Clinical). The department chair, Rudy Buchheit takes an active role in theadministration of the program. He convenes WE program faculty meetings at EJTC on a regular basis and has arranged for the department fiscal officer and the department undergraduateadvisor to maintain weekly office hours at EJTC.

8.B.1 Budgeting

The department's permanent budget is determined by the college of engineering. In generalterms, changes in the permanent budget from year to year are relatively small and are guided byenrollment, number of students graduated, and research activity. In 2008, the WE program hadrevenues of $1.45M and a permanent budget allocation (excluding facilities lease costs) of $966K. After accounting for assessment for physical plant, research administration, student

services and central administration, the WE program annual permanent budget allocationexceeded the amount calculated by the college budget model by about 10%.

The entire MSE department permanent budget is required for faculty and staff salaries and benefits. The MSE department also depends on temporary funds to a significant degree. Thisincludes research income (primarily release time) and development funds (primarilycontributions from alumni). Funds for department expenses such as GAA’s, supplies andservices, travel, etc. are covered primarily from release time (discretionary funds created when

7/29/2019 11_abet_we


74

portions of faculty salaries are charged to research projects), current use development funds,earnings on endowment accounts, and a small amount of release time returned from the college.

Department resources from permanent and temporary sources are adequate to operate theWE program.

8.B.2 Teaching support

The MSE department provides a convenient mechanism through which adequate GraduateTeaching Assistant (GTA) support is provided for program courses. The department requiresgraduate research associates paid from separately-funded research projects to serve a minimumof one quarter as a GTA for one of the courses taught in the department.

Part time instructors have been occasionally used by the WE program in order to balancefaculty work load or cover areas where faculty expertise is lacking. Prior to being appointed asan Associate Professor-Clinical during AY2009-2010, D. Phillips was supported as a part-timeinstructor for one year by college funds. Also, the WE350/351 lab classes are taught by S.Manring, an EWI employee who is hired as a part-time instructor by the MSE department.

The university Learning Technology office (http://lt.osu.edu/support/) provides resources andconsulting support in the area of teaching and learning with technology. In particular, theeLearning Professional Development Grant program extends learning technology growthopportunities to individual faculty or departments to attend conferences, host speakers, andobtain new expertise. A forerunner program known as Technology-Enhanced Learning andResearch (TELR) provided approximately $250,000 to support the development of distancelearning curriculum and implementation of distance learning teaching technology by the programduring the previous and current ABET cycles. The college of engineering provided additionalfunds of approximately $100,000 for this on-line course development.

The College of Engineering funds proposals ($90,000/yr) from faculty and staff for

pedagogies to enhance teaching and learning through the use of technology, through improveddesign of instructional spaces, and through individual professional development.

Resources are allocated to faculty for support of their individual teaching and research programs via discretionary accounts. The discretionary funds allocation is returned from thedepartment based on the amount of salary release time that faculty charge to their individualresearch projects.

8.B.3 Facilities

In FY93 the college of engineering adopted a student computer fee that continues to providestable on-going resources for computer equipment, software, and support staff. This funding provides us with state-of-the-art computer equipment. Computers are never more than 3 years

old, software is kept up-to-date and students have 24-hour access 7 days per week. This has been a tremendous benefit to our instructional programs.

Other instructional labs are supported through a combination of efforts. The WE programworks closely with industry and state-of-the-art equipment is often placed in our labs onconsignment or for lease at a reduced rate. We also compete for equipment funds from NSF andother federal agencies and utilize generous university office of research, college and departmentcost-share programs for equipment purchased on such research grants. The department’s share

7/29/2019 11_abet_we


75

of these equipment cost-share programs is generally covered by returned indirect costs fromresearch and development funds.

It is significant that the university has allocated $365,000 per year for the operation andmaintenance of the WE laboratories at the Edison Joining Technology Center. This figureincludes $100,000 from the College of Engineering, $100,000 from the Office of Research, and

$165,000 from the central administration. This investment in the program has made these world-class facilities possible.

Facilities are not a barrier to successfully achieving program outcomes and objectives.

8.C Staffing

The department is blessed with excellent support personnel. An excellent full time academiccounselor, aided by student assistants, serves both academic programs. A full-time administrator serves as the personnel and fiscal officer. An office associate, also aided by students, serves bothgraduate programs in the Watts Hall MSE office. Both the academic counselor and the full-timeadministrator have weekly office hours (approximately ½ day per week) in EJTC to support theWelding Engineering program. A second office associate supervises student reception workers

and handles the varied office tasks associated with the Watts Hall department office.

The on-campus computer labs (housed in the complex adjacent to Watts Hall, designated aECR6) and associated internal network are managed by an engineer who is a long-time employeeof the department. The ECR6 computer lab manager is aided by a staff consisting of a full-timecomputer technician and graduate administrative associates. The computer technician has weeklyoffice hours (approximately ½ day per week) at EJTC to support the student computer lab andother program computing and network needs.

The MSE department has a machine shop in the basement of Fontana Labs staffed by twofull time employees and several student employees. The machine-shop facilities and personnelare available to support undergraduate and graduate student research projects on a fee-for-service

basis. One full time staff member serves as the building and facilities manager for the WeldingEngineering Labs. This person is responsible for installing and maintaining welding equipmentused in the instructional labs.

In summary, the department is well served by a loyal and capable staff. Additional supportstaff would be beneficial in several areas, but staff, or lack thereof, are certainly not restrictingthe potential of the department.

8.D. Faculty Hiring and Retention

The processes for hiring of new faculty is maintained by the university Office of Academic Affairs. The recruitment of regular tenure track (RTT), regular clinical track (RCT),and regular research track (RRT) faculty to fill vacant positions must be based on a clear andsound plan for the programmatic future of the unit and college and on a realistic determination of the availability of resources to support the appointment. The dean of the college must give prior approval of faculty searches. This approval will be based at least in part on a determination thatthe above criteria have been met. Circumstances that suggest considerable caution in therecruitment of regular faculty include:

declining enrollments

inadequate resources to support the activities and professional development of current faculty

7/29/2019 11_abet_we


76

other major changes that could affect the need for faculty in particular areas of expertise

All regular faculty searches must, with rare exceptions, entail a vigorous national searchin addition to the internal posting. All searches must include serious efforts to achieve a pool of highly qualified applicants that includes members of underrepresented groups. The university

remains strongly committed to diversifying its faculty. Units that lack women and minorityfaculty must make every possible effort to recruit qualified faculty in these groups.

Regular faculty searches are conducted by a committee of department faculty appointed by the department chair. Search committees make recommendations to the chair followingcompletion of the search process. On receipt of the search committee's report, the chair mayrecommend to the dean making an offer to a particular candidate, resuming the search, or canceling the search.

1. Describe strategies used to retain current qualified faculty.

Tenure and competitive salary and benefits are primary means available to the universityto retain current qualified faculty. In hiring faculty into probationary regular tenure track faculty positions, the OAA policy states that the unit should be firmly convinced that these persons,given their training and record to date, will successfully meet the unit's, college's and university'sstandards for tenure by the end of the probationary period. The

The university Office of Institutional Research and Planning periodically conducts auniversity-wide survey all faculty about their experiences as members of the Ohio Stateacademic community. This survey is part of a larger collection of data on faculty satisfaction,workload, and climate conducted by the American Association of Universities. Subsequently, theOhio State University has been recognized in 2008 and in 2009 as one of the Chronicle of Higher

Education's "Great Colleges to Work For." The university ranked among the top 10 large four-year universities (over 10,000 enrollment) in three categories: "Overall Satisfaction withBenefits," "Health Insurance" and "Disability Insurance."

8.E. Support of Faculty Professional Development

The university Learning Technology office (http://lt.osu.edu/support/) provides resources andconsulting support in the area of teaching and learning with technology. In particular, theeLearning Professional Development Grant program extends learning technology growthopportunities to individual faculty or departments to attend conferences, host speakers, andobtain new expertise. Travel for faculty development purposes is supported by the MSE

department discretionary funds on a case-by-case basis. Discretionary accounts of individualfaculty members may be used to support sabbaticals, travel, workshops, seminars or any other faculty professional development expenditures that fall within state and university policies.

The Faculty Professional Leave (FPL) (commonly referred to as sabbatical leave) program isavailable to give faculty a period of uninterrupted time to invest in their professionaldevelopment. FPL proposals generally emphasize enhancement of research skills andknowledge. However, faculty members may use an FPL for substantial investment in

7/29/2019 11_abet_we


77

pedagogical or administrative skills and knowledge when these are judged to be mutually beneficial to the faculty member and his or her academic unit. The college accepts applicationsfor tenured faculty sabbatical leaves of duration of up to 2 quarters or 1 semester with noreduction on salary. Leaves of 3 or 4 quarters entail a reduction in salary of 1/3 over thesabbatical year. Leaves of 2 semesters will entail a reduction in salary of 1/3 over the 2 semester

period. No more than 10% of the faculty in the program (corresponding to one WE faculty) may be on FPL leave at time.

A similar faculty leave program called Special Research Assignment (SRA) is availableto faculty for one quarter of leave. It is awarded to regular full-time program faculty memberswhose research may be effectively promoted by the award of the time. The assignment allowsrelease from teaching of 2 or fewer courses for the quarter in question and salary is not affected.

The FPL application process focuses in order on:

(a) eligibility (faculty are eligible for sabbatical every seventh year of service).

(b) the cogency of the argument being made for the benefits of the leave to the individual

and the department.

Specific goals for the course

Engineering economics is a set of analytic techniques used in making decisions aboutthe allocation of resources. At its core is a mathematical model of how the value of moneydepends upon when it is paid or received. This model, while universally applicable to allareas of personal and business finance, will be applied in the context of problems that early-and mid-career engineers are typically called upon to solve. In much the same manner thatan engineer applies the fundamental laws of mathematics and science to optimize quantitiessuch as weight, power consumption, heat flow, stress, etc., students will learn to apply time-value-of-money concepts to maximize the financial benefits or minimize the financial costsassociated with engineering projects.

This course is important in demonstrating the following ABET Educational Outcomessfor the accreditation of your degree:

(a) an ability to apply knowledge of mathematics, science, and engineering (ABET 3a)

(c) an ability to design a system, component, or process to meet desired needs withinrealistic constraints such as economic, environmental, social, political, ethical, healthand safety, manufacturability, and sustainability (ABET 3c)

(e) an ability to identify, formulate, and solve engineering problems (ABET 3e)

Overview of Programs

1. Fundamentals of Engineering Sequences ( http://eeic.osu.edu/fundamentals )

The First-Year Engineering course sequence is generally a prerequisite for declaring engineeringmajors at OSU. Incoming freshmen take either a two-quarter or three-quarter series ( two-semester, beginning AU 2012) which broadly introduces the topics of engineering problemsolving, technical graphics, computer-aided design, programming in MATLAB, engineeringdesign and analysis, project management, ethics in engineering, teamwork, and oral and writtentechnical communication. Topics and laboratories provide a broad overview of engineeringdisciplines. Many "undecided" freshmen use these courses to help them narrow down anddeclare a major in the College of Engineering.

The First-Year Engineering Program consists of three different course sequences, designed togive students a broad understanding of the principles and practices of engineering:

The regular two-quarter sequence - Engineering 181 and 183 (ENGR 1181, 1182semesters); Special sections for Engineering Scholars designated students are offered.The Honors sequence- Engineering H191, H192, and H193 (ENGR 1281, 1282semesters)The Transfer sequence- Engineering 185,186,187 (ENGR 1185, 1186, 1187 semesters);for students with elements of the program by transfer.

The two-quarter regular sequence teaches basic engineering skills to prepare students for advanced courses, internships, major selection, and careers in engineering. The Honors sequenceaccomplishes the same objectives but in more depth and in a more accelerated fashion with a programming course built in to the series. All three program options entail a major design-build project. The continuously updated curriculum, taught by faculty and professional engineers,exposes students to different engineering disciplines and helps develop the most up-to-date and practically relevant skills.

One of the defining features of the FE program is the numerous competitions and exhibitions thattake place during the year (https://eeic.osu.edu/node/1517). These include:

FEH Robot Competition

Nanotech Competition

FE Roller Coaster Competition

Advance Energy Vehicle Showcase

Within the category of Fundamentals of Engineering the EEIC also offers versions of problem

solving with programming course with focus on use of MatLab (ENG 167.02) and C++ (ENG167.01) (https://eeic.osu.edu/course/engraph-167-problem-solving-through-programming-engineering-calculations-and-computer-graphic) used by a number of programs across thecollege. Under the semester system these courses will evolve into ENGR 1221 (2-credit MatLab based) and ENGR 1222 (3-credit C++ based). Both courses are to be cross-listed with theDepartment of Computer Science and Engineering.

2. Multi-Disciplinary Design

https://eeic.osu.edu/node/1518




7/29/2019 11_abet_we


D4

The EEIC Multidisciplinary (MD) Engineering Capstone Program ( http://eeic.osu.edu/capstone ) opens a broad range of opportunities for engineering and non-engineering students. It incorporates authenticindustry-cooperative projects into the curriculum, providing students the opportunity to apply their education and develop professional skills in real-world problems. The program began in 2001 as acooperation with Honda and had its roots in the Mechanical Engineering department. Over the years it

has developed to incorporate students across the College, as well as business, industrial design, MBA,agriculture, and humanities students. It has recently partnered with the Engineering Sciences Minor, which will lead to an even broader variety of student participation.

The MD Capstone includes a three-course sequence:

ENG 658 (3 credits) Intro to MD Design (ENGR 4901, 1credit semesters)

ENG 659.01 (3 credits) MD Design Project I (ENGR 4902, 2 credit semesters)

ENG 659.02 (3credits) MD Design Project II – Continuation of I (ENGR 4903, 2 creditsemesters)

In a continuing effort to create authentic experiences for our students, the College of Engineering began anew program in Autumn quarter 2009 called the Social Innovation Initiative (SII)

(http://eeic.osu.edu/support-services/siii ). This program provides students with the opportunity to define,design, and commercialize socially-benefitting products. The intent is to provide a practical learningopportunity for students and develop products with commercial value. The program is designed to returncommercial proceeds to the program to sustain its ongoing development. It is the goal to create productsand commercialize them to produce an ongoing shared revenue stream to support future sociallyresponsible products and projects.

3. Enrichment Programs and Courses

In response to recent reports of the National Academy of Engineering, National ResearchCouncil, National Science Foundation, and OSU studies of general education, it is clear that the

College has a responsibility and opportunity to contribute further to the general education of bothengineering and non-engineering students primarily in the area of technological literacy.

The EEIC meets this responsibility to engineering students through multi-disciplinary courses in keyareas of:

University 2nd Writing, ENG 367 (ENGR 2367 semester) ( https://eeic.osu.edu/other-courses-services/writing )

Advance Graphics, ENG 410.01, 410.02 (ENGR 4410.01,0.2 semester)(https://eeic.osu.edu/course/engraph-410-computer-graphics )

Engineering History, ENG 360.01,360.02 (ENGR 2361 and 2362 semester)(http://eeic.osu.edu/tech-literacy/engineering-history )

Teamwork and Leadership, ENG 680,695 (ENGR 5680, 5695 semester)(https://eeic.osu.edu/other-courses-services/service-learning )

The EEIC contributes to Pre-college engineering education through summer programs, co-sponsoring of a Boy Scout Explorers Post, special curriculum relations with selected highschools and connection to Project Lead the Way in Ohio.

4. Graduate Program and Research

Beginning Autumn 2011, the first cohort of students will enter the Engineering Education – STEM PhD program. This program is a collaboration between the College of Engineering andthe College of Education and Human Ecology. (http://people.ehe.ohio-state.edu/stem/program-of-study/ )

The EEIC, through the Department of Food, Agricultural and Biological Engineering, offers acourse entitled, ―College Teaching in Engineering‖. The course is designed as initial preparationfor instruction in professional engineering programs at the college level. It focuses on skills,strategies and issues common to university teaching in general and engineering instruction morespecifically. (https://eeic.osu.edu/other-courses-services/teaching-engineering)

Faculty and staff of the EEIC are also actively engaged in research and publishing in the domainof scholarship of teaching and learning (SoTL).

5. Professional Development and Support

Technical Communications and Resource Consulting (TCRC) supplies consultation on writing practice to engineering students. (https://eeic.osu.edu/support-services/tcrc)

The EEIC enhances the teaching and learning environment within the college by encouragingand supporting the development, evaluation, and use of appropriate educational technologies. Tofinancially support some of the technological enhancements, a learning technology fee isassessed of all engineering students. The college provides matching funds for technical support,staffing, and infrastructure. To promote innovation the EEIC Provide targeted funding for technology resources and pedagogical improvement, including special one-time grants, andgrants provided on a yearly basis.

The Student Instructional Leadership Team (SILT) was organized during the autumn quarter of 2009 at The Ohio State University for the purpose of professional development of students in aninstructional role. The team consists of five student leadership positions that work across theFirst-Year Engineering Program and Engineering Graphics courses which are part of theEngineering Education Innovation Center. SILT supports student employees through a group of peers. It strives to help further the development of teaching assistants in many aspects of teaching and professional and personal development. The group continues to change and evolve,

6. Credit UnitThe Ohio State University is on a quarter system. The university year is divided into four quarters of approximately eleven weeks each. The summer quarter is the beginning of theuniversity year and is divided into two terms of approximately six weeks. All courses areassigned a number in accordance with Faculty Rules (http://trustees.osu.edu/rules8/ru8-05.php) and credit hours in accordance with the procedure outlined in the faculty rules(http://trustees.osu.edu/rules8/ru8-24-25.php). This rule states:

(A) All courses shall be assigned a number of credit hours in accordance with the procedure outlined in rules 3335-8-02 to 3335-8-04 of the Administrative Code.This may be any number from zero on up; however, in determining the credithours assigned, the department, school, college and council on academic affairsshould use as a guide the following suggested standards:(1) One credit hour shall be assigned for each three hours per week of the

average student's time, including class hours, required to earn the averagegrade of "C" in this course.

(2) One credit hour shall be assigned for each two consecutive hours of practical or experimental work per week in any department or school.

(3) One credit hour shall be assigned for each three hours of laboratory work per week, when no additional outside work is required. When outsidework is required, then the standard in paragraph (A)(1) of this rule shall beapplied.

(B) In determining the hours per week required by the course or work, the councilon academic affairs may, in appropriate cases, consider the average weekly hours

spent during a quarter, semester, or session on the course or work. It should beremembered that the above are guides only and may be deviated from for goodcause.(C) When comparing or combining semester credit hours with quarter credithours, one semester credit hour shall be the equivalent of one and one-half quarter

credit hours. (B/T 7/9/2004)

When the University switches to semesters in the summer of 2012 it will be following theOhio Board of Regents rule for semester credits which states that one semester credit hour will be awarded for a minimum of 750 minutes of formalized instruction that typicallyrequires students to work on out-of-class assignments an average of two hours for every hour of formalized instruction. The University‘s Rules Committee is in the process of revising all

university rules to conform to this policy. The University has adopted an academic calendar consisting of two semesters containing 70 instructional days each.

7. Quarters to Semesters Process

7.1 Quarters to Semesters Task ForceShortly after the decision was made to switch to semesters the College formed that Quarters toSemesters Task Force which had its first meeting on the 12th of May 2009. At that meeting thetask force was informed that Interim Dean Gregory Washington charge to the task force was:

Provided with the opportunity to consider anew the content of a 21st Century engineeringeducation and the methods by which that content is delivered, I am convening a task force of the faculty of the College of Engineering to undertake the following charge:

1) Establish the framework for a transition of engineering curricula to a semester-basedcalendar and work with the COE representatives to the University Senate to provide inputto the process for deciding the semester-based university calendar model.

2) Evaluate and define the common technical elements (i.e., math, science, and engineering)that are central to the education of all engineers.

3) Evaluate and define the elements of a liberal education necessary for all engineers.4) Provide a forum for discussion and evaluation of novel approaches for delivering the

elements of engineering education, be they common to all disciplines or discipline-specific, with consideration of the following attributes:

a. Recommendations of the Engineer of 2020 report b. Embracing diversity and culturesc. Delivering a global educationd. Impact on ABET accreditation

5) Deliver recommendations on the methods, format, and calendar of semester-basedcurricula in the College of Engineering.

6) Assist programs in developing individual curriculum change proposals which will be packaged together as a single submission from the college

7) Develop a transition plan to guide advising of students who will be enrolled when thesemester shift is implemented.

Two (2) undergraduate students

One (1) graduate student

Liaisons from College Committees:College Committee on Academic AffairsCore Curriculum and UG ServicesOutcomes Assessment CommitteeGraduate Studies Chairs Committee

The task force will begin meeting immediately and be asked to report back on its progress quarterly. Members will asked to serve for a period of one year at which time adetermination will be made to either continue the task force or create an implementationcommittee.

The Task Force held regular meetings to discuss various issues concerning the switch tosemesters along with developing college policy with the idea of providing guidance to the programs as they created their semester curriculum. At some of the meetings guests fromoutside service units were invited to present how they were developing their semester coursesand to gather input from Engineering on our needs. In addition, research was conducted on other

institutions so that we could have bench marks as references.

7.2 Core Curriculum and UG Services CommitteeThe Core Curriculum and UG Services Committee is responsible for the on-going developmentof the engineering core curriculum, the engineering general education curriculum, College listedcourses and undergraduate student services within the college. Consequently, it has beenactively involved in creating the semester core curriculum to include working with outside unitsand creating memorandums of understanding with them. All curriculum proposed by thiscommittee was sent to the College Committee on Academic Affairs for their consideration.

7.3 Honors Committee

The College‘s Honors Committee is the responsibility for assuring an active program for thesupport and recognition of undergraduate honors students to include determining policy for attaining and retaining of honors status in the College of Engineering. Consequently, thecommittee has created a semester policy which was sent to the College Committee on AcademicAffairs for their consideration.

7.4 College Committee on Academic Affairs

7/29/2019 11_abet_we


D16

The College Committee on Academic Affairs (CCAA) is responsible for reviewing andapproving or disapproving proposals for changes in courses and curricula which arerecommended by departments and reporting its decisions to the University‘s Council onAcademic Affairs. CCAA created three subcommittees to review all semester curriculum,course, and policy proposals. Once a proposal had been reviewed and approved by a

subcommittee it was presented to the full committee for its approval. After the full committeeapproved a proposal it was forwarded to the University‘s Council on Academic Affairs (CAA)for its approval. CAA was the last level of approval needed for all semester curriculum, course,and policy proposals
