8) Briefly explain the assessment activities that took place since November 2018.
Revised SLOs to match the latest version of ABET requirements. The SLOs used in the previous cycle were based on a first draft from ABET. The latest SLOs are basically the same but they are listed in a different order and they had some small changes in language.
Collected course assessments.
Changed a preqrequisite requiments in CEE 370.
Evaluating the change of requiments in the Math pre-requisite, adding a CEE Math class or changing a Math requirement into a CEE math class, or some combination of these.
9) What types of evidence did the program use as part of the assessment activities checked in question 7? (Check all that apply.)

10) State the number of students (or persons) who submitted evidence that was evaluated. If applicable, please include the sampling technique used.
Assessment performed on a three-year cycle. Most students in that cycle were assessed, only 10 so far.
Sampling technique: exams, portfolios, oral presentations, and reports. We will add the Fundamentals of Engineering exams once some graduate from the program take them. I

13) Summarize the results from the evaluation, analysis, interpretation of evidence (checked in question 12). For example, report the percentage of students who achieved each SLO.
Approximate percentage of students achieving scores 3 and 4 (acceptable and good, respectively) in each SLO.
SLO 1 = 60%, SLO 2 = 83%, SLO 3 = 89%, SLO 4 = 89%, SLO 5 = 100%, SLO 6 = 92%, SLO 7 = 89%

15) Please briefly describe how the program used its findings/results.
For continuous quality improvement of our program.
16) Beyond the results, were there additional conclusions or discoveries? This can include insights about assessment procedures, teaching and learning, and great achievements regarding program assessment in this reporting period.
We have identified a need to strengthen the knowledge and application of mathematics of students coming into the program. We already tighten pre-requisites in an engineering class, but we are currently debating how to overcome this challenge.
17) If the program did not engage in assessment activities, please justify.
