Recommended Actions: Department for 2010

Recommended Actions: Department for 2011

1. Solicit donations/gifts from alumni through newsletter. Owner: Faculty

2. Connect with 5 companies in New Mexico. Owner: Chair

3. Hold an alumni event at the M Mtn Run Owner: Faculty

Assessment/Accreditation

Educational Objectives:

1. We will develop complete engineers who can: solve problems,

experiment, innovate, be resourceful, and champion ideas through effective communication.

2. We will engender an understanding of the broad reach of a modern

Chemical Engineering education and the array of knowledge required to implement solutions which will benefit our society.

3. We will provide a conduit to successful careers in the spectrum of fields

which benefit from a command of the principles of Chemical Engineering.

4. We will foster a life long love of learning, opening doors to graduate study and enabling graduates to adapt to changes and opportunities in the profession.

• Environmental Eng.• 1. To develop graduates that function

successfully in areas of environmental engineering, such as air pollution, water and wastewater treatment, and solid and hazardous waste engineering.

• 2.To prepare graduates for advanced education in environmental engineering and related fields, and for professional licensure.

Recommended Actions: Assessment for 2010

1. Articulate long term assessment plan for Spring meeting (Owner: Faculty)

met – meeting May 2010

2. Prepare self-study for ABET (Owner: Faculty)met – self-study completed June 2010

3. Increase unit-ops labs by 1 (Owner: Riley/Price)met – humidification added Fall 2010

4. Complete feasibility study to include safety in outcomes or objectives (Owner: Faculty) ABET will require process hazards very soon

Recommended Actions: Assessment for 2011

1. Revise alumni surveys (ABET weakness) (Owner: Chair)

2. Revise IAB meeting minutes procedure (Owner: Leclerc/Hooper/Board/Faculty)

3. Revise Educational Objectives (ABET weakness) (Owner: All)

4. Set benchmarks for assessment tools (Owner: All)

Recommended Actions: Department for 2009

1. Carry Over: Develop a 5 year (long term) plan Owner: Faculty NOT MET – tabled for a later time

2. Start-up annual fund raising effort for department endowment Owner: Faculty/IAB Alumni have been e-mailed as needs arise

3. Offer technical electives/graduate courses Owner: Faculty Riley – Fuel Cell Tech Fall 2009, Leclerc – Cat. Characteriz. Fall 2009, Tartis – Biomedical Eng. Spring 2010

4. Connect AIChE with three facilities to tour Owner: Faculty/IAB CEHMS – algae grower, ??, ??

5. Reach out to alumni and new companies in New Mexico to become involved in the development and direction of the program. Owner: Board Invited Jason Harper to join IAB

Recommended Actions: Educational Objectives for 20091. Overhaul/organize long term assessment plan (Owner: Faculty)

IN PROGRESS

2. Evaluate senior design presentation with quantitative results (Owner: Faculty and IAB) – DONE (must evaluate the evaluation tool)

3. Re-evaluate use and value of FE Exam results (Owner: Faculty) DONE – plan to use 2 year moving averages and

monitor slope of curve, reconnected with S. Alabama to obtain their data
