The University of Texas at Tyler Department of Civil Engineering is a relatively new CE program; graduating its first class in 2008 and achieving its first ABET accreditation in 2009 (retroactive to 2008). The senior design experience was conceived as one that touches seven sub-disciplines of civil engineering – hydrology, structures, transportation, environmental, geotechnical, construction management, and surveying, and is organized around a major project design (building and site development, bridge and roadway design, etc.) from initial needs gathering in client interviews through completion of the 100% design activities. The Civil Engineering program took the position that all of the program outcomes could be assessed during the two-semester senior design experience. Through the sequencing of events and assessments of 10%, 35%, and 100% design package submittals and oral presentations of their design results, students should be able to demonstrate their abilities associated with all of the ABET 3 a-k outcomes. Assessment of this type of senior design experience coupled with selected embedded indicators in all other courses, survey data, and Fundamental Exam results provides a clear picture of the actual demonstrated performance of an outcome by students. A number of embedded indicator assessment methods for capstone experiences were assessed, evaluated and combined to build the resulting accumulation of rubric results from each submittal to allow the program to determine if the students within teams and the entire cohort have achieved the proper level of demonstration of an outcome by performance level and percentage of overall grade. A large portion of this assessment process involved matching graded activities with specific ABET outcomes, weighting the importance of each activity toward demonstration of outcome accomplishment, and evaluating accomplishment based on grade percentages. A time consuming, but well conceived upfront process yielded valuable program assessment results that could be compiled in a reasonable time frame. The process, rubrics, data collected over two cycles, assessment of the results and changes instituted is presented. The program results of the 2008 fall ABET visit will be presented as well as how the use of the senior design as an assessment of ABET 3 a-k was viewed by the program evaluator and effected the overall program results.
