NSF/Texas A&M New Engineering Science Core at Arizona State University.
Bellamy, Lynn; Raupp, Gregory B.
This document consists of a workshop presentation on the development of a new engineering science core curriculum at Arizona State University (ASU). Part 1 presents an overview of the project, which was designed to return a true commonality to the engineering science core and increase understanding of fundamental concepts by reinserting design education into the undergraduate curriculum. Part 2 outlines the four core courses (conservation principles, properties of matter, engineering systems, and conservation principles for continuous media), while part 3 makes comparisons with traditional courses. Part 4 examines learning structures and experiences, while part 5 outlines the implementation of the core courses in chemical engineering at ASU. Part 6 addresses student competencies and levels of learning, while part 7 presents condensed versions of Langford and McNeill's taxonomies of learning. Parts 8, 9, and 10 provide course objectives, daily assignments, and competency matrices for core courses on conservation principles, properties of matter, and engineering systems. (MDM)
