1 Department of Petroleum Engineering Program Assessment Plan Academic Year:

2 1. PETRLEUM ENGINEERING PROGRAM EDUCATIONAL OBJECTIVES The Program Educational Objectives are the foundation upon which the Student Outcomes and curriculum for the Petroleum Engineering program are built. Program Educational Objectives have been developed that are consistent with the missions of the University, the College of Engineering and Mines, and the PE Department and are intended to satisfy the needs of our constituents. Furthermore, an ongoing process has been implemented to evaluate the Program Educational Objectives and ensure that the Program Educational Objectives are being achieved Vision Statement The vision for the Petroleum Engineering program is to educate future generations of Petroleum Engineers who can contribute to building a better world through professional service and research for safe, reliable, and affordable energy production and environmental protection Mission Statement The mission of the Petroleum Engineering program at the University of North Dakota is to educate petroleum engineers to meet the growing demands in North Dakota and elsewhere Program Educational Objectives Petroleum Engineering Program emphasizes the development of technical problem solving skills through a fundamental understanding of geology, chemistry, physics, and engineering. The fundamentals and problem solving skills are combined with a strong background in ethics, safety, economics, information technology, leadership, management, inter-culture, and communication. The Petroleum Engineering program is designed to provide students with a systematic understanding of the petroleum industry that includes: science and technology; economics and business; policy and regulation; and society and behavior. Teamwork, problem solving, and design exercises are interwoven throughout the curriculum; culminating in a two-semester, capstone design project during the senior year. Several courses include laboratories which develop experimental, teamwork, and communication skills. Technical reports and/or presentations required in several courses develop knowledge of contemporary issues and lifelong learning skills, as well as communication skills. Relevant computer software is used throughout the curriculum. Students are strongly encouraged to prepare for a professional license by taking the national Fundamentals of Engineering (FE) exam prior to graduation. Students who excel academically are also well qualified to pursue graduate work in petroleum engineering or a related field. 2

3 Program Educational Objectives (PEO) describe the career and professional accomplishments that the program is preparing graduates to achieve. These PEOs prepare the graduate for their career and service to the profession: 1. Contribute as engineering professionals in industry, including government or academia. 2. Pursue continued education and professional development through participation in professional organization, training and possible post graduate education. 3. Progression or attainment of professional registration and licensure Consistency with UND s Institutional Goals The PE Program Educational Objectives (PEO) embrace the principles and goals set forth in the University and CEM missions (Table 1-1) Table 1-1: Relation between Program Educational Objectives and UND/CEM Goals UND Goal: Responsibility for the discovery, development, preservation and dissemination of knowledge. Through its sponsorship and encouragement of basic and applied research, scholarship, and creative endeavor, the University contributes to the public well-being. PEO1 PEO2 CEM Goal: Provide students a broad general education coupled with strong fundamentals that prepare graduates to successfully fill important positions in professional practice in industry and government. Program graduates will have a solid background in technical subjects, breadth and clearness of vision, and high ideals and purposes. PE Program: The work of our PE graduates in engineering design, project management, construction, contract administration, technical support and research with consulting firms, government agencies and other employers to define, analyze and solve problems requires use and continued development (research, scholarship, and creativity) of engineering knowledge and skills and directly contributes to public well-being. UND Goal: The University encourages students to make informed choices, to communicate effectively, to be intellectually curious and creative, to commit themselves to lifelong learning and the service of others, and to share responsibility both for their own communities and for the world. In addition to its on-campus instructional and research programs, the University of North Dakota separately and cooperatively provides extensive continuing education and public service programs for all areas of the state and region. PEO3 CEM Goal: To engage in research and scholarly activity that contributes.discovery to enhance knowledge and student learning while being of benefit to the state, region and nation. PE Program: Program Educational Objective 3 directly relates the life-long-learning, employment and service of our graduates to their responsibilities and productivity as members of society, their communities, the state, the region, and the world. This objective also emphases on continued life-long learning, graduate studies, and state and regional economic impact. 3

4 2. PETROLEUM ENGINEERING STUDENT LEARNING OUTCOMES The PE department has adopted the eleven Student Learning Outcomes described in ABET Criterion. Student Learning Outcomes reflect a foundation of knowledge and skills that, if satisfied, provide graduates of the PE program with the tools needed to achieve the Program Educational Objectives successfully. These outcomes serve as a template for designing and improving the curriculum, providing an undergraduate program that meets all ABET criteria for petroleum engineer, and maintaining an educational focus that emphasizes competence and future professional success for our graduates. The PE Student Learning Outcomes are listed as follows: a. An ability to apply knowledge of mathematics, science, and engineering to the field of Petroleum engineering b. An ability to design and conduct experiments, as well as analyze and interpret engineering data c. An ability to design a system, component, or process to meet desired needs in the areas of environmental, geotechnical, structural, and water resources engineering d. An ability to function on multi-disciplinary teams e. An ability to identify, formulate, and solve engineering problems f. An understanding of professional and ethical responsibility g. An ability to communicate effectively by written, verbal, and graphical means h. The broad education necessary to understand the impact of engineering solutions in a global, societal, and economic context i. A recognition of the need for, and an ability to engage in life-long learning j. A knowledge of contemporary issues k. An ability to use the techniques, skills, and modern engineering tools necessary for engineering practice The scope of the PE Student Learning Outcomes also encompasses the Petroleum Engineering program criteria specified in SPE skill matrix, specifically that program graduates can be: 1. Proficient in mathematics through differential equations, probability and statistics, fluid mechanics, strength of materials, and thermodynamics; 2. Design and analysis of well systems and procedures for drilling and completing wells; 3. Characterization and evaluation of subsurface geological formations and their resources using geoscientific and engineering methods; 4. Design and analysis of systems for producing, injecting, and handling fluids; 5. Application of reservoir engineering principles and practices for optimizing resource development and management; 6. The use of project economics and resource valuation methods for design and decision making under conditions of risk and uncertainty. 4

5 2.1. Relationship of Student Outcomes to Program Educational Objectives The Student Learning Outcomes are related to the Program Educational Objectives (PEOs) such that achievement of the Student Learning Outcomes supports achievement of the PEOs. Student Learning Outcomes a k for the Petroleum Engineering undergraduate program corresponds directly to ABET Engineering Criteria 3 (a k) and ABET Program Criteria. Table 2-1 lists specific Student Learning Outcomes that relate to each of the PEOs and describe what students are expected to know and be able to do by the time of graduation in order to be prepared to achieve the PEOs within approximately five years post-graduation. Table 2-2 provides a matrix showing undergraduate Petroleum Engineering courses currently supporting one or more Student Learning Outcomes. Table 2-1: Relation between Program Educational Objectives and Student Learning Outcomes a b c d e f g h i j k Student Learning Outcomes Upon graduation, students will demonstrate the ability to apply knowledge of mathematics, science and engineering to solve engineering problems Students will possess and demonstrate the ability to design and conduct experiments, as well as collect and interpret experimental data Students will possess and demonstrate the ability to design an engineering system, system component or process meeting specific needs Students will demonstrate the ability to collaborate, communicate and work effectively with others on multi-disciplinary teams Students will demonstrate the ability to identify, formulate and solve a range of engineering problems Students will demonstrate an understanding and appreciation of professional and ethical responsibility in the practice of engineering Students will demonstrate the ability to communicate effectively in both written and oral forms Broad education necessary to understand the impact of engineering solutions in global and societal contexts Students will demonstrate an understanding of the importance of life-long learning and continuing education Students must demonstrate knowledge of important contemporary issues in the world as they relate to engineering Students shall demonstrate the ability to use techniques, skills and modern engineering tools required for the practice of engineering and related engineering disciplines PEO

By mapping individual performance criteria to the appropriate Outcomes they support, faculty can determine the extent to which any given Outcome is emphasized within the undergraduate curriculum and identify any gaps or weaknesses that need to be addressed. Performance criteria are mapped to Outcomes and results are used to identify areas of relative strength and weakness, as well as to begin the process of developing, implementing, and monitoring strategies designed to improve the PE program. By remapping the curriculum periodically, the continually changing curriculum will provide new locations for formative and summative assessment opportunities. Additionally, the plan will guide future curriculum development of the program to incorporate new skill sets required by the constituency it serves Assessment Methods Since achievement of Student Outcomes must be measurable, a set performance criteria and a set of assessment tools were developed for each Student Outcome (Table 3-1). The performance criteria relate to specific knowledge and skills that students obtain through instruction based in the petroleum engineering curriculum. The assessment tools are rubrics designed to quantitatively measure how well students are meeting the performance criteria, using direct and/or indirect assessment measure. The faculty members of the PE Department use the assessment tools to determine whether the students in the program are meeting the performance criteria. The results from this process are used to evaluate whether the Student Outcomes are being attained. 6

7 Direct and indirect assessment measures demonstrate that program Student Outcomes are or are not being achieved. This evidence is obtained for the PE Program with the following six assessment measures: 1. Analysis of data from fundamentals of engineering exams taken by students in the program 2. Results from evaluations done by faculty of student performance in PE courses 3. Results from senior exit surveys 4. Results from alumni surveys 5. Materials produced from capstone design projects 6. Laboratory reports from writing intensive courses Table 3-1: Performance Criteria and Assessment Tools for the PE Program Student Learning Outcomes Outcome a: An ability to apply knowledge of mathematics, science, and engineering to the field of Petroleum engineering a1.

12 3.2. Achievement of Program Outcomes PE Department has adopted the performance vector approach of Estell (April 2013 ABET Assessment Workshop, Portland, OR) to measure the accomplishment of performance criteria by students in various courses. The performance vector is categorized as follows: Performance Vector Category Student Performance E Exemplary Virtually no conceptual or procedural errors A Accomplished No significant conceptual errors and only minor procedural errors D Developing Occasional conceptual errors and minor procedural errors U Unsatisfactory Significant conceptual errors and/or procedural errors The PE Department has assigned expected score/levels of attainment, corresponding to E, A, D, and U, for each performance criteria to be: Performance Vector Category Expected Score E 85% to 100% A 70% to 84% D 55% to 69% U 0% to 54% The performance vector approach has allowed the faculty to design specific course exam questions or specific course assignments, which can be scored and applied as direct measures to specific performance criteria, which are in turn related to specific student learning outcomes via Table Program Assessment Results Much of the information used for making decisions regarding program improvements is generated from the evaluations done by the faculty to determine whether program objectives and outcomes are being achieved. The members of the PE faculty are responsible for reviewing data and results from PEO and Student Outcomes and determining whether actions should be taken to make program improvements. Possible changes are discussed in the program assessment meetings and at other times during the year. After each annual program assessment committee meeting, a list of actions items is compiled to help improve the program. This list is used as a starting point for generating ideas about possible improvements and taking actions for program improvement. 12

13 The chair is responsible for taking action to further evaluate possible improvements such as discussions with the Industrial Advisory Committee, students, and other constituents. The performance vector approach allows flagging of potential issues with average attainment of performance criteria. The department faculty members maintain the individual student scores for specific exam questions or specific course assignments in their course grade spreadsheet, thereby making calculation of E-A-D-U vectors for overall course student enrollment possible. The expected overall level of attainment and potential issue flagging for a specific performance criteria by students enrolled in a course is summarized below: Flag E-A-D-U Vector Average U Red below 70% and U>15% Yellow below 70% or U>15% Green at least 70% and U<15% White does not fall in the above specifications - The performance criteria from courses listed for a specific student outcome in Table 3-2 are then evaluated jointly for determination of the overall attainment level of particular performance criteria and, in turn, particular student outcome. A red flag for a particular performance criteria in a course should be discussed by the department faculty and, possibly, with the PE Department Advisory Board in an effort to improve student performance primarily through course modifications, but possibly through curriculum modifications as well. A red flag for an overall performance criteria associated with a particular student outcome would signify that curriculum modifications or interventions should be discussed by the department faculty and the PE Department Advisory Board in an effort to improve student attainment of the student outcome. Yellow flagged performance criteria would require monitoring and, potentially, intervention discussions by the department. 13

14 Petroleum Engineering Assessment of the program and student learning is central to the ongoing curriculum development of the Petroleum Engineering degree program. The program faculty are currently developing a comprehensive assessment plan similar to those for other programs in the College of Engineering & Mines. This plan focuses on an outcome based assessment of student learning, and long term objectives as defined by the Petroleum Engineering Industry Advisory Council. As the plan is yet completed, the faculty are already assessing student learning in course. As an example, one course in the curriculum (PtrE 484) is approved as an Essential Studies course (Advance Communication [A] and Capstone [C]). Student learning is evaluated using course work and rubrics. This data is then assessed to determine current learning and improve future offerings of the material. It is understood that as the plan is implemented there are a number of assessment tools that must be selected and implemented prior to the designated evaluation each year. The stated performance criteria for each learning outcome will be remapped to the curriculum every three years, or as needed. By remapping the curriculum periodically, the continually changing curriculum will provide new locations for formative and summative assessment opportunities. Additionally, the plan will guide future curriculum development of the program to incorporate new skill sets required by the industry. The education of the competent Petroleum Engineers is the desired goal of the program and constituencies served. To this end, the program has design of the curriculum with ABET, inc. accreditation in mind. Accreditation requirements are dependent on student outcome assessment so evaluation of student learning is critical to the accreditation process. A faculty member of the program is an ABET Scholar and is engaged with assessment planning as the curriculum development occurs. In addition to onsite assessment resources, the program faculty are involved the Society of Petroleum Engineer s Education and Accreditation (EA) committee. SPE is the lead member society for ABET in evaluating Petroleum Engineering programs. Continued involvement with SPE and the EA committee is viewed as critical to successful accreditation given the required student learning assessments.
