Program Assessment

Bachelor of Science in Chemical Engineering

Course reports and survey data are reviewed periodically in faculty meeting and annually with the department’s Board of Advisor during their campus visit. These discussions lead to changes within individual courses and in the curriculum as a whole. The impact of each change is then assessed after implementation.
