| Scope |
The goals of this symposium are to provide opportunities for programs to share innovative approaches in curricular development and effective pedagogical approaches in the broad materials science and engineering field covering all classes of materials. The symposium will explore how these approaches lead to enhanced student outcomes and continuous improvement of the programs. Abstracts related to course changes made to accommodate or enhance online learning are encouraged. The symposium will also highlight how these advances can be used to satisfy EAC/ABET criteria. Discussions on current EAC/ABET criteria (and changes) and preparation for reaccreditation visits will be included in the symposium. |
