Abstract:A project was designed to enhance the civil engineering portion of the curriculum in the Fundamentals of Engineering Program to foster workforce development through recruitment, retention, and development of engineering students. This effort supports the educational and technology-transfer-critical missions of the WVU Statler College of Engineering and Mineral Resources and the Center for Integrated Asset Management for Multimodal Transportation Infrastructure Systems (CIAMTIS). Specifically, a teaching module consisting of a team project related to bridge design, analysis, fabrication, and testing was developed for the “Engineering Problem-Solving I” (ENGR 101) course taken by first-year students. The curriculum module was designed during summer 2019 and piloted in both fall 2019 and spring 2020 sections of ENGR 101. Student learning was, and continues to be, assessed and project revisions are recommended for future implementations.
