Designing & Assessing Competencies in a New Transdisciplinary Studies in Technology Program

• In Event: D&D - Design Case

Short Description

Initiated in 2014, Transdisciplinary Studies in Technology is the first competency-based undergraduate program at a large Midwestern land-grant research university. Developing a program-level competency and assessment model has been an ongoing challenge. This presentation will walk you through the process we have undergone to develop and refine this model, and present it in its current form. We will then open to questions about our own experience – good, bad, and ugly!
