Professional Engineer Licensure Preparatory Course: An Evaluation and Analysis of CIAMTIS MSU Outreach Activities

From the Spring 2020 to the Spring 2023, with the support of the Center for Integrated Asset Management for Multi-modal Transportation Infrastructure Systems (CIAMTIS): Region 3 University Transportation Center, and in collaboration with the Morgan State University Civil Engineering Department, engineering outreach and training was carried out in the form of Civil PE Training and High School engineering outreach programs (Introduce Baltimore to Civil Engineering). Data analytics and information were gathered and assessed from both professional and prospective engineers. PE pre-assessment exam questions were administered and two PE training sessions were held to prepare candidates to undertake the Civil PE exam with answers and readiness feedback gathered in numerous forms of data. Engineering outreach programs were held at Morgan State University Campus for minority Baltimore high school students with activities and mentoring involved as well as assessing the interest of high school students in a career in engineering using feedback forms and surveys.
