E002 2020-2021 Self-Study Questionnaire

 

INTRODUCTION The Self-Study Report is expected to be a quantitative and qualitative assessment of the strengths and limitations of the program being submitted for review.

The Self-Study Report will provide information critical to a thorough on-site review of the program. Therefore, the Report will address the extent to which the program meets applicable ABET Criteria and policies. In so doing, it is necessary that the Report address all methods of instructional delivery used for the program, all possible paths that students may take to completion of the degree, and all remote offerings available to students in the program. Each Commission of ABET provides a Self-Stu  Self-Study dy Questionnaire Questionnaire to assist the program in completing the Self-Study Report. REQUIREMENTS AND PREPARATION The program name used on the cover of the Self-Study Report must be identical to that

used in the institutional publications, the ABET Request forisEvaluation (RFE), andinon the transcripts of graduates. This willon ensure that the program correctly identified ABET records and that graduates can be correctly identified as graduating from an accredited program.  Normally, each program requires a Self-Study S elf-Study Report. While the Questionnaire focuses primarily on accreditation criteria, it also includes questions related to certain sections of the ABET Accreditation Policy and Procedure  Manual  (APPM).  (APPM). While it is important that the overall structure in the Questionnaire be retained, it is not necessary to preserve notes or pages of instructions about preparing the Self-Study Report. A program may use terminology different from that used in the Questionnaire. If different terminology is used, it is important that the Self-Study Report provide notes of explanation to clearly link the terminology in the Report to terminology used in the Questionnaire. Tables in the Questionnaire may be modified in format to more clearly present the information for the program. When this is done, it is suggested that a brief explanatory footnote be included about why the table was modified. Rows may be added to to or deleted from tables to better accommodate program information. The educational  is theby unit having academic the  program(s) being unit reviewed badministrative y a given Commission of ABET. Forresponsibility example, if afor single 3 E002 2020-2021 Self-Study Questionnaire

 

 program is being reviewed, the educational unit may be the department. d epartment. If more than one  program is being reviewed, the educational unit is the administrative unit responsible respons ible for the collective group of programs being reviewed by that Commission. For example, if multiple programs are reviewed, the educational unit may be the college. SUPPLEMENTAL MATERIALS

The following materials are to be supplied in addition to the Self-Study Report: The general institution catalog covering course details and other institutional information applicable at the time of the review.

Civil Engineering Program

The demand for highly competent civil engineering graduates is steadily increasing in the industry as well as in academia. One of the best opportunities available to our graduates is the  possibility of continuing their graduate studies either as a full-time or part-time graduate g raduate student. Our graduates get admission to graduate programs at top ranking universities in the kingdom and abroad. The CE program has currently six (06) graduates who have been admitted to graduate studies studi es at prestigious prestigious insti institutio tutions ns in countries such as USA, UK, and Austral Australia. ia. This Self Study has not undergone a previous general review. C. Options There are no major tracks in the CE program. During the senior year, students have to enroll in two sel select ected ed ele electi ctive ve (SE (SE)) cour courses ses from the fol follow lowing ing thr three ee opt option ions: s: Opt Option ion11 (St (Struc ructur tures, es, materi mat erials als and cons constru tructi ction), on), Opt Option ion 2 (Tr (Transp ansport ortati ation on and geot geotech echnic nical al engi enginee neerin ring) g) and option3(Water resources and environmental engineering). D. Program Delivery Modes The Program provides traditional lecture/laboratory sessions in only one location at the College of Engineering building. All classes are provided during day time. There are no weekend classes,

 but due the Covib-19, distance learning or web-based education is provided for theoretical courses. However, However, students attend laboratory classes in small groups. Classes run on a full-t full-time ime  basis from Sunday through Thursday. Students begin with interesting and challenging core courses in statics, surveying, technical drawing, fluid mechanics, structural mechanics, structural materials, structural analysis, reinforced concrete I, numerical methods, geotechnical engineering and environmental engineering. After completing the core courses, students start cooperative training at an appropriate company in order to acquire valuable industrial experience, and develop professional skills. After completing the cooperative training program, students can select more advanced courses in three major areas. The first in (Structures, materials and construction), second in (Transportation and geotechnical engineering) and third in (Water  resources and environmental engineering). They also have to take a senior design project during this last term in order to apply all of the knowledge and skills they have acquired earlier. E.

B. Evalua Evaluating ting Student Student Perform Performance ance The evaluation and assessment processes differ according to the course objectives. Instructors are required to clearly explain the assessment and grading policy of their courses at the first meeting with students. During the first week of every term, instructors provide students with a syllabus for the course which serves as a work plan for the course. The syllabus includes the means by which the instructor will compute the course grade. Courses culminate with a final exam which is held at the end of each semester.

As per UOH academic rules and regulations, final exams should not count for more than 40% of  the course grade and at least two other tests and/or graded projects should account for the remaining percentage of the course grade. Courses associated with labs would also have  practical (in-lab) exams. Course projects, when applicable, ap plicable, are also a measurement of assessment assess ment which counts toward final assessment. Final ex Final exam amin inat atio ions ns are us usua uall llyy ar arran range gedd dur durin ingg th thee fi fina nall we week ek of ea each ch sem semest ester er and in coordination with the Deanship of Admission & Registration. Students who failed to attend a minimum of 75% of their classes are automatically awarded a "DN" (Denial) grade and the students are not allowed to take the final exam. This is subsequent upon two written warnings for  their absences. In case of a course requiring a prerequisite course, students must pass the pre-requisite course with a grade otherwise theymeeting are ng notthe allowed to register for onlin suchecourses. If anstudent wantsattoleast register regist er for"D", a course without meeti prerequisit prerequisite(s) e(s) the online registratio regist ration system will prevent him from doing so. The student's performance performance is determined determined through the process of assignment of academ academic ic status. A student’s academic status will be determined at the end of each semester and will appear on the transcript that shows his achievements throughout his undergraduate study. The Grade Point Point Average (GPA) (GPA) is computed computed based on the scale of 4.0. Table 1.2  1.2  shows the grading system that is used in all the programs of the College of Engineering.

Upon the instructor's recommendation, the council of the department, which teach as the course, may allow the student to complete the requirements of any courses during the next term. The grade "IC" will be recorded for the student in the academic record. "IC" grades are not included in the calculation of the semester and cumulative GPA until the student obtains his final grade in the course by completing all the requirements. If no change has been made in the "IC" grade after the lapse of one semester, the "IC" will be changed to an "F" grade. If any course of a research nature requires more than one semester for its completion, the student will be assigned an “IP” grade, and after the completion completion of the course, the student will be given the grade he has earned. However, if he fails to complete the course on time, the department council teaching the course may approve the assignment of an “IC” grade for this course in his record. If a student is registered in the Cooperative Program in summer semester and is assigned an IP grade in it, the “IP” grade will be changed to: a) “No Grade-Pass Grade-Pass (NP)” ifif the student student passes passes the the Cooperati Cooperative ve Program. Program.  b) “F” grade if the student fails the Cooperative Program. Pro gram. The Banner system automatically checks prerequisites and guides the student's registration according to his program's curriculum. By the end of each semester, the student's transcript is automatically updated by the Banner system. Before the beginning of each semester, the banner  system allows students to register courses via the internet on the University website. Articles 22 – 41 of Supplem  Supplement ent A provide student performance evaluation procedure.

Transfer from other universities to UOH

The college council reviews the course taken by the student from another university based on the recommendati recomm endations ons of the department department which offers equivalent equivalent courses. courses. The courses which which are evaluated as equivalent are transferred to the student's record but will not be included in the calculation of his cumulative GPA. In order to get transfer or credit for any course taken outside the university, the student should meet the following criteria: a) The final final course(s) course(s) grade grade must must be a mini minimum mum of “C” “C” or equival equivalent ent grade. grade.  b) Should have taken the course at a recognized college or university. c) The grade will not be included included in in the calculati calculation on of his cumulat cumulative ive GPA. Transfer from another college of UOH to the College of Engineering

A student may be transferred from college to another inside the UOH in accordance with University Council rules: a) A student student may transfer transfer from one one college college to another another college college within within the Universi University ty  before he completes the sixth academic level.  b) The student should s hould continue to study all the courses registered for at level preceding pr eceding the transfer, in compliance with the adding and dropping rules. c) The transfe transferr from one college college to another another will will be recorded recorded in the academic academic record record of  the student the term following his transfer. d) A student student is allowed allowed a maximum maximum of two transfers transfers from from one college college to to another.

D. Advisi Advising ng and Career Career Guidance Guidance The following arrangements are made for student support, academic and non- academic advice and counseling:

a) During each semester semester students students are are allocated allocated with with academic academic advisors advisors from the the faculty faculty members. These advisors guide students about the choice of courses, advice to set career direction and other academic related matters. Around 20 students are assigned to each faculty member as shown in the Table 1.4. The faculty advisor is available to solve any problem that might arise during the student program. He is expected to advise adv ise stu student dentss in pla planni nning ng the their ir aca academ demic ic prog program ramss duri during ng ear early ly regi registr strati ation, on, registration and throughout the academic year whenever a student seeks his advisor's input in academic matters. The faculty advisor has four major roles: - advise and help studen stu dents ts in earl earlyy reg regist istrat ration ion and regi registr strati ation on form formali alitie ties. s. - prov provide ide gui guidanc dancee in dropping and adding courses and in improving academic performance. - ensure that the students understand the academic regulations and follow their academic programs in a sequential order- follow-up the students' academic progress, especially those who are not in good academic standing (Table 1.5). The students advising process is  performed via the “Electronic academic guidance program” p rogram” platform.  b) For the students with cumulative GPA less than 1.5, the advisors must, to  be effective, must recognize that each student has different abilities, interests, needs, and problems so their approach in dealing with students can be different from one to the other. In this regard, the Student Guidance center at Hail University is concerned with providing, for both outstanding and tal talent ented ed stu student dents, s, eve everyt rythin hingg tha thatt wil willl enha enhance nce the their ir abi abilit lities ies and support their creativity in cooperation with the university's stakeholders.

E. Process for Review Review of the Program Educatio Educational nal Objectives Objectives

The PEOs of the department are reviewed so that they must remain consistent with the University’s Mission, constituents’ needs, and the ABET criteria. However, if the consistency of PEOs with these criteria has not changed for five years, we will review and improve the PEOs accordingly. The program educational objectives (PEOs) have been approved by the Civil Engineering Department Council. These PEOs are periodically reviewed based upon alumni, faculty and employer surveys which are carried out to consult the stakeholders about the program mission and objectives. The necessary adjustments are discussed in the department council for approval and incorporation accordingly. It has been planned that the mission and objectives should be reviewed on a regular basis annually. In order to review these PEOs, specific questionnaires are distributed to constituencies of the Civil Engineering program and feedback is received and data is analyzed. Frequency of input from constituencie constituenciess is given in Table 2-4. 2-4. Accordingly, recommendations for modifications in the PEOs, if any, are made by the Department Accreditation Committee and forwarded to Department Council for their input / approval. Figure 2-1 shows 2-1 shows the process for establishment and periodic review of the PEOs.

7. An ability to acquire and apply new knowledge as needed, using appropriate learning strategies. Prior to Fall 2020 (Sem 201), B.Sc. Civil Engineering Program Outcomes were based on the guidelines from guidelines  from National Commission for Academic Accreditation and Assessment (NCAAA) of  university program in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The Program Learning Outcomes (PLOs) of  this National Qualification Framework (NQF) have direct relationship to the Student Outcomes (SOs) according to ABET criteria. The domains used in the higher education component of the  NQF for Saudi Arabia are: 1. Knowledge – the ability to recall and present information 2. Cognitiv Cognitivee Skills  – the ability to apply concepts and principles in thinking and problem solving 3. Int Interpe erperson rsonal al Skil Skills ls and Res Respons ponsibil ibility ity  – the ability to work effectively in groups, exercise leadership, and take responsibility for their own independent learning, and the ethical and moral development that is associated with these abilities. 4. Commu Communication nication Information Information Technology and Numerical Skills  – that includes basic mathematical and communication skills and ability to use communication technology 5. Psy Psych chom omoto otorr sk skill illss  – are important in some fields of study and considered as an additional domain where relevant to the program concerned.

Prior to Semester 201, the Course learning outcomes (CLOs) were mapped to NCAAA framework PLOs which in turn were mapped with ABET SOs. Therefore, for any analysis, prior to Fall 2020 (Sem 201), the ABET SOs have been mapped with respect to PLOs as defined by NCAAA framework. However,, to make procedures However procedures simpl simpler er for all faculty members, members, from Fall 2020 (Sem 201), the CLOs for all courses have been mapped directly with the ABET SOs.

The program has been operating under the surveillance of NCAAA since 2013. Practices of  quality assurance have helped the program to improve continuously. With the introduction of the ABET to this program a number of practices already in force have been found adequate to fit in.  Nevertheless, a good g ood number of practices were needed to be revised to bring then in line to the ABET criteria. The student outcomes (SOs) are considered as a basic structure block of the  program. The current PLOs were adopted by the Civil Engineering Engineering program in semester 182. At that time time the program was using the Program Program Learning Outcomes Outcomes (PLOs) from NCAAA. NCAAA. The NCAAA PLOs were improvement, then replaced by ABET PLOs SOs from For the of datadiscrepancies analysis and continuous NCAAA weresemester mapped 201. to ABET SOspurpose Due to some in NCAAA PLOs the data generated from mapping of NCAAA PLOs with ABET SOs had some  problems.

Howeve However, r, from semester 202 a Microsoft EXCEL EXCEL based tool has  been developed that measures the SOs with regards to Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) and rubrics.

A.2 2 Ma Mappi pping ng of of Curr Curric icul ula a to Stu Stude dent nt Outc Outcom omes es A. SO assessment has been a transitionary phase for the Civil Engineering program. Prior to adopting ABET SOs, the CE program was following NCAAA guidelines for the accreditation which had 31 Program Leaning Outcomes. Outcomes. NCAAA system was followed till semester 192. For data analysis and continuous improvement process the NCAAA PLOs for prior data were mapped with ABET SOs. For  S-191 and above, the course learning outcomes for each course were mapped directly with the ABET SOs.

Course versus SO mappi mapping ng is illu illustrate stratedd in Table 4-4. 4-4. For semest semester er 201, the mappi mapping ng process can be demonstrated by a typical example of a representative course. In this case we are going to use CE 230 Fluid Mechanics as an example. The course learning outcomes (CLOs) for the the course are depicted in Table 4-5. 4-5. Table 4-4: Program Core Courses vs. SOs Matrix

It was also noted that since CE 201 is an essential yet difficult course in civil engineering and is the pre-requisite for most of other advanced courses courses hence a firm grasp of basic concepts in this course is essential. Also, background of most of the students entering in civil engineering is weak in basic mathematics and  physics so they have hard time understand understanding ing the fundame fundamentals ntals of this course. Hence overall low performan performance ce in this course is understandable. understan dable. In CE 261 it was decided to give more help sessions on problem solving.

As shown in the above pasted flow chart a number of indirect methods are also used to assess the CLOs, these include Course Evaluation Survey, Student Exit survey, Program Evaluation Survey, Faculty Survey and Aptitude Test. In order to measure student outcome using indirect methods a number of surveys have been designed and conducted by the department. These include Course Evaluation Survey (CES) and Student Exit Survey (SES). Each of this survey in conducted every semester. Employer Survey

The employer Survey is conducted every 3 years. A standard template for the survey is used. The survey contains 37 questions which cover  general and academic areas. Each question is measured at a scale of 5 from strongly agree to strongly disagree. Part A is personal information. Part B is company/organization information consisting of 8 questions. Part C is related to consistency of  department Vision & Mission with the company requirements consisting of 2 questions. Part D is related to consistency and attainment of  PEOs to the organization concerned. Part E is attainment of SOs by UoH graduates according to employer consisting of 7 questions directly related to ABET 7 outcomes. Part F relates to general comments about graduates. A detailed Employer’s Survey Report is attached as Supplement to this SSR. The survey has been helpful to determine the parameters parameters such as ALV of PEO and ALV of Student Outcomes as explained earlier in criterion 3.

Continuous improvement of CE program is driven by direct as well as indirect instruments. The relationship of SOs and the courses have already been explained in Table 4-2 above. It is evident from Table 4-2 that each student outcome is addressed by more than one course. Information on how the results of evaluation processes for the SOs have been systematically used. Accordingly, input for the continuous improvement improvem ent process is partially included in section 4.A. In addition, feedback from the program constituencies, constituencies, has also been systematically used for continuous improvement. Results of S-181, S-182, S-191, S-192 & S-201 indicate that, at program level, Civil engineering program is meeting the target set as shown in section 4. A.3.

This is achieved through building a sufficient knowledge base and analytical capabilities so that graduates can continue to expand their knowledge. The core courses are intended to provide a broad base so that graduates can continue to grow as professionals throughout their careers. These core courses may be categorized as general civil engineering with a code of CE. The progression in the flow of courses in which fundamental knowledge acquired in earlier years is applied in later engineering courses ensures the achievement of these main

goals. Satisfaction of these goals also implies success in attaining the outcomes of the program. The curriculum is designed to ensure that the students receive in depth civil engineering knowledge and practical experience in the core civil engineering disciplines. In addition, the students are required to study courses in mathematics, physical sciences, English language and humanities.

A.4.2.1 Cooperative work (9 CH) All students in the CE department are required to work full-time at well established companies for a period of 28 weeks in the first semester of the fourth year. This internship training program  provides to the students’ hands-on work experience ex perience in their field of study before bef ore taking up their  senior design project and graduating. With this internship program, students are exposed to realworld work situations that, in addition to providing them with the necessary practical experience, allow them to really appreciate and understand how things are done in their chosen field of  study. In order to fulfill the experiential learning objectives of the Coop program, students are required to work full-time at an approved private/public company or establishment and are not allowed to register any other course while in training. During this period the intern should assume a wide range of responsibilities and tasks. Of particular importance are the following types of learning experiences, which reflect the coop objectives: Indust Ind ustri rial al an andd Te Techn chnic ical al Sk Skil ills ls – Th Thee in inte tern rn sho shoul uldd obs observ erve, e, le lear arnn and ac acti tivel velyy  participate in the planning, design, development and implementation of projects of  ample technical content.

After completing the required training duration, the students are evaluated based on their   professional, technical and communication skills competencies. A.4.2.2 Senior Design Project (3 CH) Students are required to function on multidisciplinary team to design a system, component, or   process to meet desired needs within realistic constraints. A standard engineering design process is followed including the selection of a client defined problem, literature review, problem formulation (objectives, constraints, and evaluation criteria), generation of design alternatives, work plan, preliminary design of the selected alternative, design refinement, detailed design, design evaluation, and documentations. Students are required to communicate, clearly and concisely, concis ely, the details of his design both orally and in writing in several stages during the design  process including a final public presentation to a jury composed of several subject-related  professionals.

Although students are free to propose their own ideas for a project and to then find a faculty member willing and able to serve as a supervisor, students will be offered to work on projects conceived by CE department faculty members. In either case, it is recommended that a project  proposal form be filled in and submitted to the Senior Year Project Committee coordinator by the end of week 11 of the Spring semester, for projects to be conducted in the following Fall semester, and by the end of week 11 of the Fall semester, for the projects to be conducted in the following Spring semester. The proposals will be then circulated by emails among the all CE department faculty members for duration of up to a week for their approval. Once approved, the  projects proposals will be presented by the faculty members and discussed with the students in an open session. The projects proposals are then offered to students for up to two weeks to express exp ress the their ir pri priori oritiz tized ed cho choice ices.

By of thethe endproj of ects week 15l ofbethe current students should be informed of their assigned projects. Final Assessment – Week 15

A student is supposed to submit written and oral reports that will include a comprehensive description of the methods used and the integrated steps employed. With the results, discussion, abstract, conclusion, references, tables and figures, a proper final report will normally require at least 50 pages. Improper spelling or grammar will not be tolerated; papers with many such errors will be returned for revisions, and result in a worse grade. The report should be in a singlecolumn, 1.5 spaced full-page format. It is preferred (but not requirement) that figures and similar   be interspersed in the text as in a journal article: they may also simply appear at the end. The report should be written for an audience of other reasonably well informed senior-level civil engineering majors. There background material the reader where the current work fits should in withbe theenough research field in general. Thefor report shouldtobeunderstand as long as necessary – and no longer. A student is required to give a 20-minute Oral presentation of the project to the Project

examination panel. A final grade will be assigned by the Senior project committee after the final report has been evaluated and the student has made an oral presentation. All relevant senior projects documents (surveys, proposal forms, assessment sheets and project reports; etc.) are maintained in the senior project folder at the CE quality room. A.4.2.3 Laboratory experience The civil engineering program contains 9 CE courses with labs which correspond to a total credit hour of 26 CH. These courses are summarized in Table 5.6.

Also, Aptitude Aptitude test is carrie carriedd out internally internally or by external examiners each semester. Based on the latest employers’ survey, the average weightage value given in Table 2.5 and Figure 2-1, is 3.36 (out of 5), which represent 67% of employers’ satisfaction with the CE PEOs. Although Altho ugh this level of employers’ endorsement endorsement of CE PEOs is encouraging, encouraging, the CE depart department ment would like to increase constituencies’ approval of the aforementioned PEOs. Therefore, the department has undertaken process of reviewing the existing PEOs. The revised PEOs are finalized (Article 4 in Criterion 2) and will be used in all the future surveys. The PDAEC committee is empowered to make appropriate curriculum adjustments after DC appro ap prova val, l, an andd it off offer erss sug sugge gest stio ions ns to in inst struc ructo tors rs for im impro prove veme ment nts. s. For al alll qua quant ntit itat ativ ivee assessments, the PDAEC Committee has set a score of 70% or higher as the desired passing score for each outcome. Lower scores will warrant corrective action. Maintenance procedures are also proposed for achieved outcomes. The SOs and PEOs assessment and evaluation methods with the proposed continuous improved strategy are detailed in criteria 3 and 4. To update the CE continuous improvement process, we keep getting regular feedback from faculty, PDAEC, department council, student advisory council, external advisory board, alumni and employers. Moreover, an annual aptitude exam is held locally as well as a national test is organized by the KSA National Center for Engineers to assess our student outcomes. All students attend the local aptitude aptit ude exam at their senior year and most of them attend the natio national nal test. These tests prepare the CE graduates well equipped with the skills necessary to achieve the student outcomes and consequently the program educational objectives within a few years of graduation.
