d. How are faculty rewarded and/or recognized within your units for their willingness to engage in this strategic plan goal?

i. Faculty are rewarded through the P&T and Salary processes.e. DoT Immersive Learning Projects include:

i. Spring 2013, TEDU 490-5G: (2 CM students plus others) Team-taught (with Dr. Tarek Mahfouz and Dr. James Jones) construction management students’ participation in interdepartmental and intercollegiate course with the College of Architecture and Planning and the University of Louisville’s and University of Kentucky’s engineering programs. Course continues development of entry for the United States’ Department of Energy’s 2013 Solar Decathlon, which “challenges collegiate teams to design, build, and operate solar-powered houses that are cost-effective, energy-efficient, and attractive. The winner of the competition is the team that best blends affordability, consumer appeal, and design excellence with optimal energy production and maximum efficiency” (U.S. Department of Energy, 2011). Project initiated in Fall 2011; this collaborative team was selected from entries across the world as one of the 20 finalists for the event. Course focuses on detailed estimating utilizing Building Information Modeling (BIM), development of safety and health guidelines for construction, and detailed construction planning and scheduling.

ii. Fall 2012, TEDU 490-2G: (1 CM students plus others) Team-taught (with Dr. Tarek Mahfouz and Dr. James Jones) construction management students’ participation in interdepartmental and intercollegiate course with the College of Architecture and Planning and the University of Louisville’s and University of Kentucky’s engineering programs. Course continues development of entry for the United States’ Department of Energy’s 2013 Solar Decathlon, which “challenges collegiate teams to design, build, and operate solar-powered houses that are cost-effective, energy-efficient, and attractive. The winner of the competition is the team that best blends affordability, consumer appeal, and design excellence with optimal energy production and maximum efficiency” (U.S. Department of Energy, 2011). Project initiated in Fall 2011; this collaborative team was selected from entries across the world as one of the 20 finalists for the event. Course focuses on detailed estimating utilizing Building Information Modeling (BIM), development of safety and health guidelines for construction, and detailed construction planning and scheduling.

iii. Spring 2013, (13 students), TDPT 299X-2G: The class includes construction management, architecture, interior design, urban planning and historic preservation students. This is an expansion and enhancement of the previous semester project under TEDU 299A. (Taught by Janet Fick)

iv.Fall 2012 immersive learning class, TEDU 490 3G/4G, (11 students) “Rehabilitating Houses”. The class includes construction management, architecture, interior design, urban planning and historic preservation students. To further their goal of home ownership for lower income families, in 2010 Habitat for Humanity expanded their focus from strictly new home construction to include rehabilitating existing homes. According to Lindsey Arthur, Chief Executive Officer for Greater Muncie Habitat for Humanity, there are currently over 4,000 vacant homes in Muncie. Since rehabilitation projects require individualized evaluations and redesigns, Greater Muncie Habitat found the shift to rehabilitation required more time commitment than their current staff could handle. Greater Muncie Habitat then asked me if I could coordinate a group of students to assist them in analyzing the existing homes which they will be rehabilitating. (Taught by Janet Fick)

v. Spring 2013, (7 students) TEDU 490-3G/4G: Led students from construction management and interior design in an interdisciplinary, immersive course. Course based around preparation of a competitive entry for the National Electrical Contractors Association Green Energy Challenge, who challenges teams to both develop technical, energy-saving and cost-efficient renovations for a parking structure as well as “advance efforts on their campus to improve energy awareness of students” (National Electrical Contractors Association, 2012). (Taught by Dr. James Jones)

vi. Tech Camp spring 2013, TDPT- 299x 1G (20 students) Spring 2013. This project engaged BSU students with the local community in preparing a Technology Camp for middle school students. The final product will be a hosted event each summer for the local community. (Taught by Dr. David Hua)

vii. Hunt branding assessment and positioning strategy project fall 2012, TDPT 299H 1G (4 students)

5/6/2023 5


This project engaged students with the Arizona based, Robert G. Hunt construction company, in researching and proposing a specialized marketing project to be implemented by the sponsoring company. The project was conducted fall semester 2012. (Co-taught by Dr. James Jones and others outside the department)

viii.Legends of Perfection documentary video project Fall 2012 (13 students). This project sponsored through Virginia Ball Foundation engaged students with the Auburn Cord Duesenburg Automotive Museum in research and documentation of the history of the classic cars manufactured by Auburn, Cord, and Duesenburg, culminating with a documentary to be aired on PBS at a future date. The project ran through the fall semester 2012, with the first screening of the video in December 2012. (Taught by Hans Kellogg)

3. Analysis of CAST Release Time for Scholarship

Based upon my interpretation of the current guidelines for faculty release time for research, 9 out of 9 DoT (100%) faculty members met current "CAST Guidelines for Release Time for Scholarship" guidelines.

4. Internal and External Grants May 1, 2012 – April 30, 2013 included:

a. 40 external grants submitted FY 2012-2013 = $5,734,313.00 (Sponsor funding)(Increase 7 and $1,335,820.00)

b. 10 external grants funded FY 2012-2013 = $2,725,567.00 (No change in number and increase of $2,468,104)

c. 10 external grants pending at time of report = $1,048,327.00d. 11 internal grants submitted FY 2012-2013 = $132,936.00

(No increase in number, increase of $93,733)e. 10 internal grants funded FY 2012-2013 = $131,936.00

(Increase of 1 and $119,536.00)f. 1 internal grant pending at time of report - $1000.00

5. The following is a summary of scholarly contributions to the field and the academy made by DoT funded graduate assistants Strategic Plan Goal 50 a. DoT Graduate Assistant scholarship engagement included 44 acts of scholarship

future publications (increase of 1)*Special note, one in press and three in submission manuscripts involved students (one undergraduate and three graduate) appearing as lead authors.

5. Descriptive data on DoT student performance on national credentialing/licensing exams is a follows:a. The Department of Technology's Teaching Majors in Technology Education has

continued a 100% success rate on the national content exam (PRAXIS II) for 10 students during the reported time period, with majors recording above both Indiana and national average scores in six out of the six sections of the exam.For the Technology Education Praxis full battery, the median for all examinees at the national level was 181 (n=722), for BSU examinees (n=10) the median was 187. The average performance range national was 171-189 and for BSU 181-192. The following are the percent correct for the five individual parts of the Technology Education battery: I. Technology and society = BSU 85%, Indiana 83%, National 82%, II. Technological Design and Problem Solving = BSU 83%, Indiana 81%, National 78%, III. Energy/Power/and Transportation = BSU 83%, Indiana 78%, National 72%, IV. Information and Communication Technologies = BSU 85%, Indiana 82%, National 79%, V. Manufacturing and Construction Technologies BSU 88%, Indiana 79%, National 76%, VI. Pedagogical and Professional Studies BSU 90%, Indiana 85%, National 83%.

b. Students involved in Construction Management Safety training resulted in 52 receiving 30 hour OSHA certification which is a 100% pass rate for the 50 enrolled during the report period, plus two receiving the certification who participated in the construction safety class in an earlier semester.

6. The following summarizes any changes in DoT’s merit system enacted during the year – perhaps as a result of efforts to raise the level of awareness of what constitutes “meritorious” performance.a. The DoT merit document was revised last year to align with changes in university

policy regarding percentages of merit and across the board amounts (30% across the board - 70% merit).

b. Minor revisions were made this year to clarify three items as requested.

7. No DoT undergraduate students were engaged in honors theses or degree related formal research activities within the department programs. One graduate assistant

5/6/2023 7


seeking a terminal degree in Teacher's College was involved with dissertation research, with plans to complete the dissertation during the summer of 2013.

8. The following summarizes actions taken within the department to evaluate and improve 4 year graduation rates for undergraduate majors.a. Eight semester plans for 120 hour majors have been reviewed and revised where

necessary for all four year programs. This process will be reviewed and revised by program coordinators annually during summer semester.

9. Faculty engagement in professional organizations (publications, presentations and service) Strategic Plan Goals 51 & 64

a. DoT faculty scholarly accomplishments included: i. 21 refereed journal articles; (increase of 4)ii. 8 refereed articles in press; (increase of 5)iii. 6 refereed articles submitted; (decrease of 19)iv. 16 conference proceedings; (increase of 2)v. 1 published abstracts (decrease of 3)vi. 4 non-refereed article published (increase of 4)vii. 1 textbooks; (submitted for review - pending - increase of 1)

b. DoT faculty scholarly accomplishments included: 36 refereed presentations, and invited presentations (increase of 6)

c. DoT faculty scholarly accomplishments included participation on 15 editorial advisory boards. (decrease of 2)

11. Student enrollment in the Department of Technology has shown a steady increase from 2001 to spring 2010, with modest fluctuation from Spring 2010 through Spring 2012. Using data from the Office of Academic Systems, the data shows an increase in total enrollment of 370 students between Spring 2001 and Spring 2012. While the data indicates that there has been a shift in program enrollments over the years, the continuous growth represented by the data is one indication of a strong department.

12. This year, DoT attracted 559 students through its UCC21 course offerings, other than capstone courses which only majors are involved with (an increase of 64). DoT projected attracting approximately 40 to 80 additional students to the department through its UCC21 offerings by adding additional sections of 100 and 200 level

5/6/2023 8


UCC-21 courses. Recent plans to add one additional course to the UCC-21 offerings have been suspended for further consideration in the Computer Technology program because the current number of faculty in that program would be insufficient to absorb a significant increase in student interest. It is anticipated that the need for additional sections of these courses will continue to rise over the next few years.

Since all DoT UCC21 offerings represent 3 hour courses, this has the potential to generate significant FTEs for the department and college. It is anticipated that some undeclared majors and students in other majors seeking new programs will move to the majors in this department.

Key Strengths of (Department of Technology) – 2012-20131. Strong academic programs

a. One of DoT’s major strengths continues to be its diversity of faculty and programs. While this diversity of programs can, at times, be challenging, the

5/6/2023 9


opportunities for engaging in program or discipline collaboration presents some unique prospects. The faculty continue to work cross-programs and across departments/colleges/institutions on several collaborative activities.

b. Continued growth has driven an increase in the number of faculty serving the department adding to the expertise and diversity represented. One new tenure-line faculty was added in Computer Technology. One contract faculty was added to Construction Management to expand the content offered in the program. There is one ongoing search for a new Computer Technology contract faculty to address the increase in FTE.

c. As indicated in Appendix C, student enrollment in the Department of Technology has shown a steady increase from 2003 to spring 2013, with only modest fluctuations. Using data from the Office of Academic Systems, the data shows an increase in total enrollment of 341 students between Spring 2003 and Spring 2013. While the data indicates that there has been a shift in program enrollments over the years, the continuous growth represented by the data is one indication of a strong department. Significant growth has occurred in the Construction Management and Computer Technology programs, generally stable numbers in Graphic Arts Management, and significant decreases in Manufacturing Engineering Technology (terminating in spring 2014) and Technology Teacher Education.

The table(s) in Appendix C list the enrollment by program for bachelor’s degrees, minors, graduate degrees, and concentrations in the Department of Technology. The ongoing termination of the MET program and the shrinking undergraduate Technology Education program have contributed to the slowing of the department growth over the past year.

2. Innovative use of technology in educational settingsa. DoT faculty continue to be innovators in the use of technology to support the

on-line delivery of the Master’s Degrees in Technology Education and Career and Technical Education. One new course introduced last year will be taught for the first time in fall 2013 (TEDU-585).

b. The Construction Management program is scheduled to have a new high tech center (Robert G. Hunt Center) introduced in Phase II of the AT Building renovation. This lab is planned for cutting edge technology for the field and for students to have 24 hour a day access to support capstone and other immersive learning activities.

3. A new minor in Occupational Health and Safety Compliance had been added to the offerings of the department in fall 2012. The first course in the minor (an existing course (TDPT-360) was offered during the fall of 2012. Three additional courses in all will be developed in support of this program, which is a

5/6/2023 10


collaborative effort among multiple departments and colleges on campus. The first of the new courses (TDPT-101) was offered in spring 2013 but since the new program had not yet appeared in the current course catalog in time for registration, the course did not attract sufficient interest. It will be offered again in fall 2013 since it now appears in the current catalog and efforts have been made to encourage advisors to promote the new minor. The two final courses (TDPT-201 and 301) are planned for final development during the 2013/14 academic year.

4. Internal and External Grants FY May 1, 2011 – April 30, 2012 included:a. 40 external grants submitted FY 2012-2013 = $5,734,313.00 (Sponsor

funding)(Increase 7 and $1,335,820.00)

b. 10 external grants funded FY 2012-2013 = $2,725,567.00 (No change in number and increase of $2,468,104)

c. 10 external grants pending at time of report = $1,048,327.00d. 11 internal grants submitted FY 2012-2013 = $132,936.00

(No increase in number, increase of $93,733)e. 10 internal grants funded FY 2012-2013 = $131,936.00

(Increase of 1 and $119,536.00)f. 1 internal grant pending at time of report - $1000.00

While the above represents a significant increase in dollars requested and funded through external agencies, this level of successful funding will still be pursued, but since these data reflect a multimillion dollar grant which is not routine for DoT it is anticipated that this level may not be fully maintained in subsequent years. Though it is not anticipated that the total amount funded in external grants will increase for 2013-14 because of the unusually large grant awarded to the graphic arts management program, it is anticipated that the number of external grant proposals will be stable or increase. An effort started the previous year will continue to better train and prepare DoT faculty for submitting and acquiring external funding over the 2013-2014 AY, with special concentration on the Computer Technology and Graphic Arts Management programs. The increase of external proposals reflects the success of the efforts and though continued growth is anticipated, the size of the increase of the next year may not be as large as the change experienced in 2012-13.

5. One of the department's growing strengths is faculty engagement in professional organizations (publications, presentations and service) Strategic Plan Goals 51 & 64 a. This year faculty scholarship and service included:

i. 23 refereed journal articles; (increase of 6)ii. 10 refereed articles in press; (increase of 7)

5/6/2023 11


iii. 7 refereed articles submitted; (decrease of 18)iv. 16 conference proceedings; (increase of 2)v. 2 published abstracts (decrease of 2)vi. 4 non-refereed article published (increase of 4)vii. 1 textbooks; (submitted for review - pending - increase of 1)

b. DoT faculty scholarly accomplishments included: 35 refereed presentations, posters, papers, and/or invited presentations (increase of 5)(see Appendix A).

c. DoT faculty scholarly accomplishments included participation on 15 editorial advisory boards(decrease of 2) (see Appendix B).

d. Additional efforts to assist with and encourage faculty efforts regarding publications is also planned for the 2013-2014 AY.

6. Another significant strength is how the Department of Technology has used its' graduate assistants during the past 5 years to facilitate faculty scholarship and the development of a line of research for these young scholars i.e., GA's DoT Graduate Assistants scholarship engagement included:

a. 4 refereed journal articles (unchanged)b. 2 refereed article in press (increase of 1)*c. 7 refereed articles submitted (some rejected and not listed in current

submissions in appendix - decrease of 9)*d. 5 refereed conference proceedings (change of 4)e. 1 non-refereed article (unchanged)f. 4 refereed presentations, abstracts, posters, papers, and/or invited

presentations (increase of 3)g. 2 grant applications submitted and/or funded (not as investigator)

(increase of 2)h. 2 DOT sections/classes taught by GA (unchanged)i. 1 Dissertation in development (unchanged)j. 7 of 9 GA research data collection and/or research being conducted for

future publications (increase of 1)*Special note, one in press and three in submission manuscripts involved students (one undergraduate and three graduate) appearing as lead authors.

The department plans to continue encouraging increased scholarship, research, and grant activity among graduate assistants and will continue to assign assistants to faculty who best utilize graduate assistants for these purposes. Using graduate assistants in lab operation or teaching capacities will be minimized except in the case of students specifically seeking teaching

5/6/2023 12


assistant positions related to their career goals. Those seeking teaching duties will also be expected to also engage in scholarship.

7. Active and supportive alumni and advisory boards

a. One of the most important and significant community partnerships between DoT programs and the community at large are reflected in the program advisory boards. A quick review of the representative companies documents participation and partnering between DoT and: Microsoft, Gaylor Electric, Shook Construction, Turner Construction, Bowen Engineering, FA Wilhelm Construction, Top Notch, Indiana Construction Association, Rollins Construction, Pratt Corporation, Printing Industries of Indiana Association, Maxon, Spartech Plastics, Shiel Sexton, William Baker Company, and Indiana Department of Education, Interactive Intelligence, among many others. (See Appendix D)

b. These partnerships have supported initiatives such as:i. Program assistance and recommendationsii. Equipment donationsiii. Support for a new facility member for Construction Management

iv. Immersive learning experiencesv. Adjunct faculty recommendations vi. Support for student competitions and scholarshipsvii. Internshipsviii. Hiring of program graduatesix. Participation in capstone experiences and assessments

c. The Computer Technology and Graphic Arts Management programs will be concentrating on improving the current membership for the program advisory committee during the 2013-2014 AY in an attempt to replicate successes of the Construction Management program advisory group. The Graphic Arts Management advisory group has demonstrated a strong increase in involvement during the 2012-13 year and will be encouraged to increase involvement further during the 2013-14 year.

Key Challenges for (Department of Technology) – 2013 and beyond 1) UCC-21 -- The implementation of UCC-21 will require key resources if DoT is to

successfully meet the challenges it will present. In the future, based upon increased FTEs, it will be imperative that DoT expand resources necessary to implement the CORE Curriculum. These resources may require additional S&E

5/6/2023 13


funds, and fulltime contract and/or tenure track faculty to deliver the DoT UCC21 Fine Arts / Design and Social Science courses. Without these additional resources, the ability to fully meet demand may be severely hindered if demand continues to grow in current UCC-21 courses.

This year, DoT attracted 559 students through its UCC21 course offerings, other than capstone courses which only majors are involved with (an increase of 64). DoT projected attracting approximately 40 to 80 additional students to the department through its UCC21 offerings by adding additional sections of 100 and 200 level UCC-21 courses. It is anticipated that the need for additional sections of these courses will continue to rise over the next few years. Recent plans to add one additional course to the UCC-21 offerings have been suspended for further consideration in the Computer Technology program because the current number of faculty in that program would be insufficient to absorb a significant increase in student interest.Since all DoT UCC21 offerings represent 3 hour courses, this has the potential to generate significant FTEs for the department and college.

2. Resources -- Given BSU’s limited resources DoT continues to struggle to attract new faculty, though this did improve over the 2012-2013 AY with the addition to one new tenure-line Computer Technology faculty. There remains a deficiency in faculty based on FTE in the Computer Technology program, with a current search ongoing for a contract faculty in this area. The Computer Technology program will still require at least one more faculty addition to support current and rapidly growing student numbers. Currently, the department has sufficient faculty

5/6/2023 15


to deliver the OSHC minor program with the participation of the other cooperating programs, including Physiology, Wellness, Natural Resources. These programs were highly supportive of the new program during the development and proposal phases and will be encourage to continue close engagement with delivery of the minor. If this new minor begins to draw large numbers, an additional faculty may be required from one or more of the collaborative programs.

3. Scholarship – DoT continues to make changes in how graduate assistants are used in the department relative to previous years. A new CAST sponsored workshop was offered to faculty to help encourage increased grant activity. It is planned to pursue this more aggressively during the 2013/14 AY.

The increase in use of GA's primarily for research has proven helpful in scholarship activities, especially in publications and presentations.

4. One of the major needs of the department continues to be the renovation of its facilities. The Applied Technology Building was built in 1952 and is no longer functional for the types of programs that are currently offered within its’ walls. Additionally, there are increasing problems related to the plumbing, mechanical, and electrical systems. Additionally, the location of the department creates a significant visibility problem on campus. For the 2013-2014 AY, this problem was addressed with the first phase of renovation, but this process added a burden on the department as adapting courses and programs around the disabled portion of the building during renovation caused some interference, but reopening the newly renovated part of the building in spring relieved much of this pressure, though many minor issues in the project continue to cause some interference into mid-spring 2013. It is anticipated that Phase II construction will not begin before the summer of 2014 so the only disturbance to normal operation during this period should be related to minimal planning involvement with the architectural firm and some preparations to begin clearing areas to be impacted by the next phase of construction.

Key Plan/Initiatives for (Department of Technology) 2012-20131. As in the previous year, the Department of Technology has been an active

participant in UCC-21. In particular, in Tier 2 Fine Arts / Design, DoT plans to provide CORE students the opportunity to enhance their knowledge of and ability to use technology and their creativity to design products and/or systems. The department will continue to expand the number of sections offered based on faculty availability. One additional class is being considered (ITCMP-111) for

5/6/2023 16


addition to UCC-21 offerings, but this will not occur unless faculty additions allow this option. Currently, there is not projected date for this change because the faculty available are still inadequate in number to absorb an increase in demand. Expansion of current UCC-21 courses offered should continue to result in increased student involvement, but the growth for 2013-14 is not anticipated to be as significant as the previous year because of staffing limitations and a faculty special leave during the fall of 2013 that impacts the two courses with the most significant interest.

2. A Minor in Occupational Safety and Health Technology has been developed and was initiated in fall 2012. Because of limited advising and the minor not being in noted in the current course catalog, activity was low. Freshman advising has been informed of the new minor and the new catalog has been published, but efforts to encourage the major anticipated feeding program advisors to actively recommend the minor has not yet proven successful. Efforts are being increased to promote the minor, but it may take additional efforts in fall 2013 to increase the student interest and the advisor engagement with the minor to insure a successful introduction of the new program.

3. During the upcoming year, DoT will continue to emphasize items listed in the Strategic Plan, and support and encourage growth and/or achievements by DoT faculty in the areas of teaching, scholarship, and service. Improved strategies will be initiated to encourage this growth beginning in fall 2013, including providing additional support, both departmental and through other BSU resources, to assist and educate faculty primarily in the areas of grant seeking and publications.

4. Through its' Program Sunsetting Considerations/Activities, ABET Accreditation was extended in spring 2012 to maintain accreditation through the implementation of the plan to terminate the Manufacturing Engineering Technology Program. ABET accreditation has been established for coverage through spring semester 2014, which is the project termination point. This program will continue to offer the required classes, including offering classes even under conditions of under-enrollment, to insure all current students graduate from the accredited program according to the termination schedule.

5. The Construction Management developed a revised program in accordance with directives and recommendations related to the recent (spring 2012) ACCE accreditation, primarily to address program evaluation requirements and to increase the math/science content addressed. Additional revisions will be made to improve on changes adopted based on accreditation guidelines that created difficulties within the program of study as it relates to other BSU requirements for core and other considerations.

This involved 38 students over fall and spring.Number of hours related to the associated courses equal 1710, but additional hours of volunteer work were involved but not documented.The local agency involved was Delaware County Habitat for Humanity.

15.Do you have any professional programs? (Goal 95) If so, how many? (Goal 95a), How many have an external advisory council? (Goal 95b)

There are five professional programs in the Department of Technology: Computer Technology, Construction Management, Graphic Arts Management, Manufacturing Engineering Technology (terminating after spring 2014), and Technology Teacher Education. All have established professional advisory councils. Graphic Arts Management and Computer Technology are actively recruiting to expand and improve the quality of the advising body.

16.Academic Program Accreditations/Recognitions

a. The seven year old Construction Management Program experienced significant growth in enrollment over the first seven years and is now beginning to stabilize in numbers majors and minors. In fall 2012 the program graduated the first students with a full four year degree in the program area. Previous to this, the program was an option under the Industrial Technology degree (now converted to a Computer Technology degree).

b. The Construction Management Program experienced the final accreditation visit from ACCE in fall 2011 and received full five year accreditation in spring 2012.

5/6/2023 21


c. In spring 2012 Ball State University’s Manufacturing Engineering Technology program was granted a two year accreditation extension by the Technology Accreditation Commission of Accreditation Boards for Engineering and Technology (TAC/ABET) which will be in place until the program fully terminates in spring of 2014.

d. The online Master's Degree program in Career and Technical Educated has been recognized by GetEducated.com (consumer guide to online colleges) as number 11 in the top 114 online education degrees in the nation as a Best Buy. This rating is based both on quality and overall cost. No other CTE program is listed higher and only two adult and community education programs were higher (though these could be considered somewhat related to CTE).

17.Graduate Programs Growth a. Enrollment in DoT’s graduate courses have increased from 28 in spring

2003 to 58 in 2013. This number is down significantly from the previous year, but this is believed to be a result of a change in tracking or recordkeeping procedures based dramatic increases in admission applications over the last year, especially in CTE where coding of major is an issue because of students declaring similar major codes incorrectly. Some taking courses are not appearing in licensing or major records properly.

18. Student Competitions a. Ball State's Construction Management Design/Build team was awarded

second place in Associated Schools of Construction regional competition in Downer's Grove, IL in fall 2012. The team was coached by Mr. Mike Mezo.

b. Construction Management student team recognized for participating in the international Solar Decathlon, including assisting with the initial submission that was one of 20 selected by the US Department of Energy for further involvement, this was through immersive learning classes. This is a continuation of the selection for the final event in the previous year.

19. New Construction and renovations a. Phase I renovation was largely completed in December 2012. Phase II

still pending, not likely to begin earlier than summer 2014. All work is now completed other than setting up BSU message board service in the seminar room overlooking the new lobby area.

20. Professional certification and licensinga. Students completing DoT's ITCST 365 - Construction Safety have the

ability to earn a 30 Hour OHSA Card. For the 2012/13 year, 39 of 40

5/6/2023 22


completed this certification. Successful completion is not a pass/fail requirement of the course.

b. Students successfully completing the Technology Education undergraduate program qualify for an Indiana Teacher's license.

c. Many graduate students completing the Career and Technical Education program will qualify for either a CTE administrators license or to add a CTE area to a currently held teachers license in some other content area (depending on their objectives and selected track/plan of study). The precise number cannot be tracked since there is no dependable system available to verify certifications achieved. This program serves students across the national and Canada for licensing.

AY ENROLLMENT SUMMARY

5/6/2023 55


Enrollment

As indicated in the table(s) below, student enrollment in the Department of Technology has shown a steady increase for the years represented between 2003 to spring 2013. Using data from the Office of Academic Systems, the table shows an increase in total enrollment of 341 students between Spring 2003 and Spring 2013, with an increase of 222 in the past five years.

Documented in the table(s) below is a listing of the enrollment by program for bachelor’s degrees, minors, graduate degrees, and concentrations in the Department of Technology. While the data indicates that there has been a shift in program enrollments over the years, the continuous growth is one indication of a strong department. Note that the largest growth involves the Construction Management and Computer Technology programs, with the Graphic Arts Management program remaining fairly stable and significant decreases in Manufacturing Engineering Technology and Technology Teacher Education.

The Manufacturing Engineering Technology program is being terminated and is no longer accepting new students so these numbers are declining. The program will terminate after spring 2014. There has been a modest drop in overall enrollments over the past 3 semesters reflected primarily in the drop of the MET program that is being terminated and in Technology Education which is currently struggling due to a national trend impacting this program area. It is not clear yet whether this trend will continue downward, stabilize, or begin to increase. Currently the demand for teachers in this area is greater than the new licensing rates.

Notes: 1) Transition to Teaching option has been added to the Spring 2013 data.2) Computer Technology Major, CTE Director license, and El Ed Concentration accurate numbers were not available at the time of reporting.3) The CTE undergraduate major was suspended spring 2013.4) Licensing data were not reported prior to F08 for Tech Ed and F11 for CTE director.
