Formal action on the group of existing Engineering Mechanics
courses offered by the Mechanics group in the Department of Mathematics
will be deferred until the Engineering Programs are implemented.
This detailed proposal follows from motion approved by-Senate on
January 14, 1980, "That approval in principle be given to the establish-
ment of undergraduate and graduate degree programs in Engineering at
Simon Fraser University." There have been intensive discussions both
with the University and with external groups. The documentation now
provided includes much information.
The proposal is for a four year program rather than for a five year
requirement as at UBC. UBC is seriously considering introduction of a
four year program for 1983. There is provision for operation in the
Co-operative Education mode which is expected to be the normal method
but which would not be mandatory. The design is professionally oriented
for those who wish to practice in fields of engineering but there is
also Engineering Science for those who may wish to proceed to graduate
school work. The program emphasizes mathematics and science and it also
includes emphasis on a number of relatively new areas such as computing.
Any program introduced must, satisfy the Canadian Accreditation Board which
requires at least a half year study in humanities, social sciences and
administration.
The principal features of the programs for the Faculty of Engineering
are outlined on
pp.
19 and 20 of the document. The general admission
requirements and degree requirements are outlined on pp. 33 and 34;.the
Engineering Program requirements are shown on
pp.
35 and 36, with elective
lists on
p.
37; the more detailed outlines for each of Civil Engineering,
Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Chemical Engineering,
Computer Engineering, Engineering Science appear on
pp.
38 to 80 inclusive.
Information on resources and a proposed schedule for development are
given-on
pp.
81 to 84.
Engineering course descriptions appear on
pp.
85 to 122. The Canadian
Accreditation requirements for an Engineering Program are shown on
pp.

and thereafter.

This is to clarify and make explicit the responses to a number of issues
raised at SCUS.
1. The Engineering Curriculum specifies a significant number of
courses in Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry as core requirements for
all students. Most of the courses specified have content which is quite
appropriate to the needs of the Engineering. Curriculum but in a few
instances both the Engineering Committee and the department concerned
recognized that the material in the specified courses was not exactly
what was needed. The departments have agreed to examine the needs of
the Engineering Curriculum and to consider rearranging the course material
by the time the curriculum is iinpleineited.
S
2. A conscious effort has been made to utilize existing S.F.U. courses
wherever possible. This has been done both to integrate Engineering with
the rest of the university and to achieve maximum economy. Thus the normal
engineering courses in Statics, Dynamics, Strength of Materials and Fluid
Mechanics are taught by the Mechanics group in the Mathematics Department
and the Thermal Physics course (Physics 344) is specified instead of. an
introductory course in Engineering Thermodynamics. In the case of the
courses taught by the Mechanics oriented faculty in Mathematics, we will
request that the designation MATH be changed to ENME (for Engineering
Mechanics) when the Engineering Curriculum is implemented. (This applies
to MATH 262, 263, 265 and 362.)
The important principle which applies to all such courses is that
they must directly meet the needs of the Engineering Curriculum. Thus, if
for any reason the content or emphasis of any of these courses becomes
inappropriate to the needs of the engineering undergraduate, the Faculty of
Engineering must reserve the right to institute its own course on that
topic. In the light of the extensive consultation which has taken place
we have no reason to believe that this will be a problem.
3. In a few instances, non-engineering courses have been designated
as required for Engineering students who do not formally meet the pre-
requisites. This has been done after consultation and represents an informed
judgement that in these cases the pre-requisites can be waived. The

SUMMARY
There is an urgent need to increase the educational opportunities for
Engineering in British Columbia.. This is necessary, to meet the needs of
industry for qualified engineers, to encourage the establishment of new
technology based industries and to provide equitable educational
opportunities for the citizens of the Province.
Simon Fraser proposes to develop a high quality four year engineering
degree program which will normally be offered in the co-op mode. There will
be simultaneous development of a graduate program. The proposed programs
are Chemical, Civil, Computer, Electrical and Mechanical Engineering plus
Engineering Science. The Computer Engineering Program can be covered
without additional faculty or courses by combining the digital systems
option in Electrical Engineering with courses in the existing Computing
Science Department. Chemical Engineering depends heavily on the existing
Chemistry Department and Engineering Science provide
.
s an opportunity for in
depth study in solid state electronics, energy and mechanics by combining
engineering and science courses. All programs share a common core of
science, mathematics and societal context courses In addition all programs
have course sequences in computing, systems theory and industrial
engineering. Thus the graduating student will be firmly grounded in the
fundamentals but will have the sophisticated analysis' tools which together
with a strong professional orientation, will equip him to tackle the
problems of B.C. and Canadian industry in the 1980's and 1990's.
Simon Fraser's physical location is adjacent to a future research park
and is in the heart of the industrial and population growth area for the

 
2
Province (projected population increase of 350,000 within commuting
distance). Simon Fraser Uni' csity also offers an attractive internal
environment for the development of a second school of Engineering. Not only
would existing SFU departments (Physics, Chemistry, Computing Science,
Kinesiology, Geography and Mathematics) provide strong complementary support
to an Engineering Faculty, but. the semester system is ideally suited to the
co-op program and makes full use of facilities year round. The flexibility
of the semester system will also be used to enhance the accessibility of the
program to students entering from other university programs, colleges or
institutes of technology. Transfer students will enter the engineering
program through specially designed transfer semesters which will allow them
to complete theengineering degree as expeditiously as possible.
The proposed Faculty of Engineering would grow to have an enrollment of
about 825 undergraduate and 100 graduate students after 7-10 years. There
would be 40 faculty in the four departments of Chemical, Civil, Electrical
and Mechanical Engineering. The detailed budget is currently being prepared
but preliminary estimates are that operating costs will rise to $3,500,000
($5,250,000 with
50%
overhead) and that about $20,000,000 will eventually be
required for buildings and equipment. It would be desirable to implement
all programs simultaneously but since it is estimated that design and
construction of a
neW building will require about 5 years, it may only be
possible to mount the programs in Electrical, Computer and Chemical
Engineering immediately. They can probably be accommodated on an interim
basis in existing laboratories in the Faculty of Science. The third and
fourth years of the Civil and Mechanical Engineering programs might have to
be delayed for three years unless suitable temporary laboratory space can be
found off-campus.

THE NEED FOR ADDITIONAL ENGINEERING PROGRAMS IN B.C.
In spite of the many studies and analyses that bear on the supply and
demand of engineers in Canada in general and in B.C. in particular, the
exact dimensions of the future supply and demand situation remain elusive.
Although there is accurate data on the supply of new engineers within B.C.
(i.e., graduates from U.B.C.) and on immigrants from outside Canada, it is
quite difficult to estimate the number of migrants from the rest of Canada
who come to B.C. each year to take up the practice of engineering. The
total demand is also very difficult to estimate. Nevertheless, all of the
evidence points to the fact that the annual increase in the number of
engineers employed in B.C. exceeds the supply from U.B.C. by about 100% and
that this situation has existed.for at least 10 years.
The following is a summary of the evidence that supports this conclusion:

have an engineering school.

These data indicate. that B.C. empi..oys pgipeers at a level that is
consistent with the total Managerial.and Professional employment and with
t
he total population. Internal migration is difficult to estimate.
Approximately 60% of the Registered Professional Engineers in B.C. received
their first egineei
ng
degree outside B.C. Roughly
half
of these obtained
their qualifications
.
outside Canada.
In summary, it is clear that there is a substantial shortfall in the
?
supply of engineers in B.C. In the
last
10 yars the province has educated

 
5
S.
between 4 and 5% of the Canadian total while employing between 9 and 11%.
The shortfall is made up by migration from the rest of Canada and
immigration from abroad.
To project the future supply/demand situation it is helpful to examine
the graph in Figure 1. This shows the numbers of engineering graduates from
U.B.C. and an estimate of demand based on the membership in the Association
of Professional Engineers of B.C. (APEBC) since. 1970. The number of
graduates is projected to 1983 based on current enrollments. The net
increase in the number of new members in the APEBC
(399
in 1979) can be used
to estimate the total number of new engineers taking up employment. To
estimate this total it must be recognized that there is an attrition due to
death, retirement and movement out of engineering into other occupations
(principally management). The total attrition rate is probably between 1
and 3% - conservatively an estimate of 2% is used, i.e., 184 in 1979.
Beyond this, it is well known that all engineers do not join the
Association. The unregistered engineers are estimated at about 30% across
Canada. For B.C. we made a conservative estimate of 20% a
.
nd in 1979 this
would amount to 117 unregistered engineers. Thus for 1979 the estimated
total number of new engineers would be 399 + 184 + 177 = 700. This estimate
is plotted for 1970-1979. It must be recognized that the number taking up
employment only gives the demand which has been met. There is consistent
anecdotal evidence from employers and more specific indications from Canada
Manpower that in some fields of engineering in B.C. there are unfilled
positions each year. Thus the true demand is certainly higher than the
number taking up employment.

Figure 1. The estimated number of Engineers taking up
employment in B.C. compared with the number
of UBC Engineering graduates
Conservatively the total shown for 1979 can be assumed as a minimum for
the future. There is evidence that the number of engineers employed is
related to the gross national product and to the total number in the work
force. Both of these are projected to increase in B.C. at rates higher than
for Canada as a whole; thus it does not seem unreasonable to project an
increase in the demand for engineers in B.C. over the next 10 years. It
does not appear feasible for U.B.C. to meet this demand. We understand that
the maximum number of graduands possible with existing facilities is about
450/year (for a total enrollment of 2000).
Although the disparity between supply and demand is clear, it is less
obvious whether students will enroll in expanded university engineering
programs in B.C. Although the U.B.C. enrollment is now approaching their
maximum capacity (total enrollment is 1600 in 1980 and maximum capacity is
.
.

 
4
7
variously estimated as being 1800 and 2000), in recent years it has been
well below capacity in spite of an excellent job market. In contrast, in
Alberta and Ontario all engineering schools limit their enrollments and turn
away qualified applicants (at University of Alberta in September 1980 a
total of 500 new students were admitted while 450 qualified applicants were
turned away).
The lack of interest in engineering in B.C. can be attributed to a
number of factors:
1. ?
The relative unattractiveness of the U.B.C. 5-year program. It is
clear that some well qualified students choose to go to the 2-year
diploma program at B.C.I.T.
2.
The low profile of the engineering profession in providing
counselling information to high school students.
?
Specifically, in
contrast to B.C., other Associations of Professional Engineers
maintain vigorous educational programs with activities such as
offering prizes to the best student from each School District who
enters a School of Engineering.
?
In the U.K. a vigorous "Schools
Liaison Service" is operated jointly by the Institutes of
Electrical and Mechanical Engineering.
3.
The relative inactivity of the U.B.C. School of Engineering in
providing students and counsellors in High Schools with appropriate
guidance. ?
This is in direct contrast to the pattern in Ontario.
We believe that an aggressive and fdrward looking engineering program at
Simon Fraser University, which conducted vigorous liaison activities with
the high
schools, would have no difficulty attracting good students.
?
Many
would be
attracted by the flexible access provided by the transfer modules

designed for students from the colleges and B.C.I.T. In addition, it is
known that Engineering facu] 's traditionally have the lowest enrollment of
women of any of the professions. The program at S.F.U. will attempt to
attract more women to engineering by hiring women faculty and offering
scholarships for women. In this way we hope to interest the
50%
of the
population, that up to this time, has not found engineering education very
attractive.

The Rationale for Establishing a. Faculty of Engineering at S.F.U.
Simon Fraser University not only offers an attractive internal and
external environment for the development of a second school of engineering,
but a strong case can be made that existing programs of the university would
benefit from this addition. These points are considered in turn:
1. The External Environment
Simon Fraser University
IS
in an area of major population growth for the
province (see Figure 2). Conservative population projections for the next
twenty years indicate a rise in population in the lower mainland from its
present population of about 1,275,000 to about 1,625,000 In 2001, or an
increase of approximately 350,000. This increase represents approximately
40% of the projected population increase for the province. The areas that
already have a substantial population and that will experience the largest
increases in population will be Richmond, Delta, Surrey, Langley, Maple
Ridge, Coquitlam and Burnaby. These areas are within commuting distance to
Simon Fraser. In contrast, the increase projected for Greater Victoria is
..oniy:abeut 25,000.
:In addition, Simon Fraser in located in the center of the major area of
i
y
4strial development and research; in the province (see Figure 3). For
example, the MacMillan Bloedel Research LabaoratorieS are located in
Burnaby, and there are definite plans to locate the research laboratories of
Microtel Pacific Research, the research arm of B.C. Telephone, in a research
park adjacent to the university.

2. The Internal Strengths
Simon Fraser has complementary strength in its existing programs that
can contribute to the efficient and economical development of a strong
engineering program. Several departments (Mathematics, Physics, Computing
Science, Kinesiology) have faculty with engineering qualifications who are
conducting research and advising graduate students in areas which are
normally considered to be engineering, or are closely related to
engineering. The specific strengths include:
a.
Mathematics has 6 faculty who teach and conduct research in the
field of Mechanics.. A number of their existing lower division courses can
be incorporated directly into the Engineering curriculum (e.g., Statics,
Dynamics, Strength of Materials, Fluid Mechanics). Further, the advanced
undergraduate and graduatecourses in Mechanics provide a rich environment
for the more theoretically inclined Engineering student. These courses will
be utilized in the Engineering Science major and in the Graduate Program.
b.
The Physics Department has a strong solid state orientation. In
addition to providing some useful undergraduate courses for the Electrical
and Computer Engineering majors, the department has agreed to make its well
equipped laboratory facilities available to Electrical and Computer
Engineering on an interim basis. The whole undergraduate Physics curriculum
is important for the Engineering Science major which emphasizes energy
(among other topics). At a research level it is hoped that some Engineering
faculty will establish cooperative programs particularly with the newly
established Energy Research Institute.
c.
Computing Science, since its inception, has given strong emphasis to
Computer architecture and hardware. This, is now being recognized formally

 
-L
4
.
13
in a proposed Honors Program in Digital Systems Design. This strength in
Computing, together with the proposed Electrical Engineering Program will
enable an innovative Computer Engineering major to be mounted without
additional expense. There are many obvious opportunities for co-operative
work In undergraduate course offerings, graduate teaching and research.
d. Kinesio1og includes two biomedical engineers on its faculty and for
some years has been attracting Engineering students to its graduate
program. With the addition of a Faculty of Engineering it will be possible
to expand the Biomedical Engineering Graduate Program. Related to the
Biomedical Engineering strength is the research group working on
environmental physiology. The laboratory facilities include a Hot/Cold
Chamber and a Hypo/Hyperbaric Chamber; these facilities together with the
faculty and research strength will provide a base for the development of the
proposed emphasis on "Engineering in Extreme Environments". There is
existing funded research on diving equipment and manipulatorsfor
submersibles.
Kinesiology is also expanding its offerings in human factors/ergonomics
for a proposed Occupational Health Program. These courses are an important
strength for the proposed Industrial Engineering emphasis in Mechanical
Engineering.
e.
Other Departments.
There are
a number of other strengths which will
be very
helpful.
Chemistry
provides
a base for the development of Chemical
Engineering and Geography will provide a geology course. for Civil
Engineers. The Humanities and Social Science Departments are willing to
develop innovative courses to provide support to Engineering.

 
14
,e
In addition to the specific departmental strengths, the university
library already has a substan

31 collection relevant to Engineering
(including serials) and the Computing Centre offers appropriate facilities
for at least the initial phases of the Engineering Program.

The Advantages for S.F.U. Establishing a School of Engineering
Engineering education occupies a relatively unique position in Canadian
universities - indeed in universities the world over. As a professional
school with a large enrollment, its size often exceeds that of traditional
arts or science faculties. Law or medicine, in
.
contrast, are small and
basically post-baccalaureate. Engineering education encompasses both
undergraduate and graduate studies, but the degree accredited for
professional registration continues to be the baccalaureate. Graduate
degrees - particularly the doctorate - are associated with more advanced
theoretical study and with research. The undergraduate engineering
curriculum relies heavily on the physical and mathematical sciences, and on
• ?
at least an equal quantity of Engineering Science. However, the effort and
importance' placed on design - on the interactive activities of synthesis and
analysis - strongly differentiates engineering education from science
education.
Another way in which' engineering
'
education differs from other
undergraduate study is in its breadth. The Canadian Accredidatiofl Board
requires at least a half-year's study in humanities, social sciences and
administration. Thus engineering students are found in courses in all of
the major undergraduate
;
faculties. This is in vivid contrast to the arts,
social science and science programs in most universities. The nature of
engineering studies and this broad participation in the arts and sciences,
together with the characteristic dispersion of engineers into the widest
possible range of careers after graduation, have prompted some to claim that
Engineering is the only real form of liberal studies in modern

 
16
?
.4 •
universities. Obviously many educators and scholars would dispute that, but
?
.
engineering programs do provi a unifying and balancing influence within
the university. Engineering provides a different intellectual dimension to
that found in the pure sciences and humanities at the same time providing
programs for students interested in applying their knowledge to practical
problems.
Engineering study is available in almost all Canadian universities;
?
excluding the very small institutions only the University of Victoria, Simon
Fraser University, York University in Toronto and Dalhousie University in
Halifax do not have full engineering programs, and the last situation is
different because of proximity to. the Technical University of Nova Scotia
which houses only Engineering and Architecture. Thus the continued lack of
engineering at Simon Fraser would perpetuate an anomolous void which can
only partly be filled by quasi-applied programs like Kinesiology and
?
r
Computing Science.
There are some less abstract benefits for existing departments which
will result from the increased enrollment produced by engineering. The
engineering curriculum will require at least six courses in (a) the physical
sciences, (b) mathematics and (c) the humanities, social sciences and
administrative studies. In some cases these additional enrollments will
result, in proportional increases in expense but in many others, existing
resources and course offerings will be more efficiently utilized.

THE PLANNING PROCESS.
As a result of a study conducted by an ad-hoc Engineering Committee, in
December 1979 Senate gave approval in principle to the development of
undergraduate and graduate programs in Engineering at Simon Fraser. The
Senate Committee on Academic Planning later approved the formalization of an
Engineering Committee comprising T.W. Calvert (Chairman), E. Shoemaker
(Mathematics), M. Plischke (Physics), J. D'Auria (Chemistry) and B. Schoner
(Business Administration and Economics). Subsequently Dr. T.W. Calvert was
appointed Director of Engineering. The Director and the Committee have
worked with three Engineering Consultants and an external Planning Advisory
Committee in preparing a detailed proposal.
The three consultants, all of whom are former Deans of Engineering at
their home institutions are:
Dr. Donald George, P. Eng., Professor of Systems Engineering and
Computer Science, Carleton university;
Dr. George Ford, P. Eng., Professor of Mechanical Engineering,
University of Alberta;
Dr. D.J.L. Kennedy, P. Eng., Professor of Civil Engineering,
University of Windsor.
While all of the consultants have extensive experience and have been
involved in heading CAB accreditation teams, it is worth noting that
Dr. Ford recently completed a term as Chairman of the Canadian Accreditation
Board of the Canadian Council of Professional Engineers.
The external Planning Advisory Committee is chaired by Simon Fraser's
Chancellor, Mr. Paul Cote, P. Eng., and has the following membership
• ?
Dr. John Madden, President, Microtel Pacific Research
Mr. T.A. Simons, P. Eng., President, H.A. Simons Ltd.

The Committee met with the internal planning team in June, July, September
and November, and a meeting is planned for December 1980.
Having received advice from the external Planning Advisory Committee and
working closely with the consultants, the Engineering Committee prepared
this proposal.

PRINCIPAL FEATURES OF THE PROPOSED?
PROGRAMS FOR THE _FACULTY
OF ENGINEERING
1.
A new Faculty of Engineering will be established.
2.
The Degrees of Bachelor of Engineering, Master of Engineering, Master
of Science in Engineering and Ph.D. will be offered by the Faculty.
3.
The B.Eng. Degree will normally be completed in a 8 semester co-op
program and will require 160 semester credits (i.e., 20/semester).
?
'4.
?
Admission of undergraduates to the Faculty of Engineering will normally
occur at the time of admission to the university. Enrollment will be
limited.
5.
Admission from High School will require Algebra 12, Physics 12 and
Chemistry 12 in addition to other S.F.U. requirements.
6.
Admission from College or University Science Programs, from,BCIT or
from elsewhere will be facilitated by the development of "Conversion
Modules" of one or more semesters in length (see Figure
4).
These will
build on students' strengths to allow them to complete the degree
program as expeditiously as possible.
7.
Programs are proposed in Chemical, Civil, Computer, Electrical and
Mechanical Engineering plus Engineering Science. The curriculum of
ikiih program will meet the requirements of the Canadian Accreditation
kard.
The departments would be Chemical, Civil, Electrical and
Mechanical Engineering; Computer Engineering would be based on
Electrical Engineering and the existing Computing Science Department
and Engineering Science will draw heavily on science courses in
addition to those of all Engineering Departments. All programs could
be developed simultaneously.

 
'•'
20
8.
Over 50% of the curriculum will be common to all undergraduate programs.
9.
Through selection of eie .ves, students in each major will be able to
emphasize different areas. For example, Civil Engineering will provide
options emphasizing either the manufacturing and processing industries
or the resource industries, Electrical Engineering will provide three
options: Electronics and Communications, Digital Systems and Power
Systems. Mechanical Engineering will provide a substantial emphasis on
Industrial Engineering and lesser concentrations in Mining, Forest
Products, Offshore Engineering and Mechanics. Nevertheless, the most
important feature of all of the programs will be the common core
courses on systems analysis, industrial engineering and computing which
provide the analytic tools required by a practicing engineer in the
1980's.
10.
In order to help provide the research environment which is required for
any first class undergraduate program, a modest graduate program will
be started simultaneously. Initially, M.Sc. degrees with a heavy
concentration on research will be offered to selected students. As
courses are developed, opportunities will be available for students to
give greater emphasis to course work. A professional masters program
combining engineering and management courses will be developed when
resources permit. The professional degree could be pursued on a part
time basis, thus, allowing practicing engineers the opportunity to
upgrade their status without taking leave from their job. In addition,
special upgrading or "retreading" courses could be offered that will
allow practicing engineers to become familiar with new trends and
information in engineering. Work to the Ph.D. level will be available
by special arrangment as soon as there are suitable faculty supervisors
?
S
on staff.

 
21
.
?
ACCESSIBILITY AND CO-OP
Students entering the Faculty of Engineering directly from High School
will normally take the co-op degree program illustrated in Figure 4. This
involves 8 study semesters and 4 work semesters-spread over 4 calendar years.
Students entering from academic science programs in the colleges or from
university science programs will normally get full transfer credit for
appropriate courses and will be fed into a special "transfer module" version
of te second or third semester as appropriatei These students will
normally join the regular program by the 4th semester which is the first
co-op work semester.
Students entering with a First Class diploma from an appropriate
?
technology program (BCIT or a college offering technology programs) will
receive special consideration. This will involve a special two-semester
"transfer module" which includes special mathematics courses. Because of
tt-1r extensive laboratory and practical experience these students will be
A
cdit for lab courses and will not normally take the co-op program.
Ii):thlS way they will often be able to complete their degrees within two
calendar years. Students with unusual backgrounds will receive appropriate
spial consideration. In order to, facilitate entry by students already
working, it is anticipated that it will be possible to offer some of the
c,ersion module courses by distance education In this way students from
oitiide the Lower Mainland will be able to reduce the number of courses they
take on campus.

Goals for the Engineering Curriculum at
?
Simon Fraser University
Based on advice from members of the Planning Advisory Committee and
after a careful study of the engineering needs in the province, the
following nine overall goals for an Engineering Program at Simon Fraser
University have been identified:
(1)
To complement other educational programs in engineering, science
and technology and so to contribute to an appropriate spectrum of
opportunites in engineering eduction in British Columbia.
(2)
To achieve ease of access to this program by students of varied
age, education, work experience and social experience.
(3)
To provide a rigorous and demanding educational experience
requiring that high academic standards be met.
(4)
To prepare the student for sound analysis and creative synthesis in
the design, construction, operation and management of the
productive capability of the province and the country
(5)
To develop in the student an appreciation of the economic, business
and societal context of engineering work.
(6)
To prepare the student for engineering practice in the 1980's and
1990's, paying particular attention to professional skills.

 
24
(7)
To be highly compatib'' 'ith the local engineering community and
with Simon Fraser UniL 3ity (and integrated into its modes of
operation) and so achieve the programs goals at minimal additional
cost.
(8)
To develop and use methods of instruction appropriate to the
educational objectives of the program and the student.
9)
'
To be associated with research, deielopment and consultative
activities which combine the talents of local engineering
enterprises with those of the faculty and students.
The basic structure of an engineering program is clearly' laid out by the
Canadian Accreditation Board of the Canadian Council of Professional
Engineers.* The proposed program at Simon Fraser University has followed
the CAB requirements closely. CAB requirements and the prerequisite
requirements of the upper division courses leave little freedom in the
?
S
selections of engineering courses in the lower levels. The basic subjects
of mathematics and physics have been given an appropriate emphasis in the
common or core courses in the lower levels. Courses in chemistry and
computing science have been made common requirements for all engineering
students in this program. In the interests of economy and the integration
of engineering with the basic fabric of S.F.U., the first two semesters have
been made essentially common for all engineering students and courses have
been chosen from the SF.U. calendar, where possible, that meet the
engineering course requirements.
The remaining science requirements could be met by more courses takii in
common by all engineering students covering aspects of physics, chemistry
and perhaps geology or biology. However in face of the expanding frontiers
*Appendix A

 
25
of knowledge in all engineering disciplines, we have opted for science
courses relevant to the student's intended engineering specialization with a
minimum of 12 semester hours in relevant sciences included in the core of
engineering specialization.
In some universities the programs also provide for a compulsory broad
base in engineering science which sees mechanical engineering students
taking a number of introductory electrical engineering courses and so on.
Following the theme of relevance to the discipline, engineering science
courses have been chosen that have a clear relationship to the chosen branch
of engineering (i.e., civil, electrical, etc.).
The society and environment core relates as much to attitude as it does
to knowledge. This element of the program is called for by the fifth goal
and its extent is dictated by CAB. In all, 18 semester hours are involved.
While students are free to design their own programs (subject to Faculty
approval), an example is provided in which 12 hours are specified in
economics, business and technological impact (following the fifth goal) and
the remaining 6 hours are left elective to allow the students some freedom
to pursue particular interests.
Thus far we have dealt primarily with knowledge and not at all with
skills. Much skill development takes place in the laboratories and
assignments associated with the regular science and eigineeriflg courses but
not necessarily enough. Survey after survey has clearly revealed that
engineering graduates and their employers place certain skills in position
of highest priority. The needs are well known: how to:
(1) learn and study;
0
?
(2) access information;

 
26
(3)
identify and solve problems;
(4)
manage time, money, m.
?
ial and people;
(5)
think visually and conceptually Using mathematics, numbers,
diagrams and graphs;
(6)
conduct tests, trials, and experiments;
(7)
arrive at decisions;
(8)
communicate.
Invariably, in all surveys, the. question of how to communicate has been
the greatest concern. An explicit effort In skill development Is a major
objective of the care of general engineering. Just what is intended will be
discussed in greater detail in a later section.
This group of courses also serves another'objective. It Is becoming
evident that a "systems approach" characterizes the good engineering
practitioner, and that this is increasingly significant in engineering
education as the "science" orientation of the last two decades fades. Some
of the courses provide analytical tools for systems and economic analysis
while others consider the more qualitative areas 'of engineering 'design and
management.
The resulting program is one-half common (80 semester hours) with the
remaining
50%
of the student's effort directed to specialized study in
civil, electrical, mechanical, computer or chemical engineering or
engineering science. 'Common elements of the curriculum are distributed
throughout the program with only the eighth semester having no common
courses. Some of the common course requirements are met through elective
courses, so the engineering students will not take all classes together.
Even the first year, while basically the same for all students, contains
electives which can relate to the student's intended field of specialization.

Laboratories 'and Projects
The style of a curriculum or the way it is run, does much to attain a
program's educational goals. An identified goal in the S.F.U. program is
ease of access which implies flexibility in scheduling and in admission.
Our proposal for laboratory operation also relates to the goal of how to
arrive at decisions.
Laboratories are not locked to specific courses but have course numbers
and credits of their own. Each student in every semester of laboratory
registration will arrange and have approved a schedule of particular
laboratory projects which will define his laboratory requirement and
complement the lecture and project portions of his program. To accommodate
the personal schedules of students, the laboratories will remain open from
eight in the morning until midnight, seven days a week. As at the
University of Exeter, textual and audio-visual materials will be developed
so that very little laboratory instruction will be needed except for
equipment failure and related difficulties, and some tutorial help. This
will reduce the need for laboratory staff to the minimum required for safety
and security and allow the extended laboratory hours proposed. Clearly the
physical design of the laboratories must accommodate this approach,
presumably centralized within the engineering building. Where possible,
"take-home labs" of the type developed in a number of institutions would be
utilized.
Objectives for student learning in an engineering laboratory are
extensive and include reinforcing or supplementing classroom learning,
learning how to use equipment and simulators, learning how to conduct

 
28
scientific experiments, experiencing engineering research and development,
practicing engineering design.,
?
iosure to "real-world" situations, and
practicing communication skills.
Options for types of laboratories range from set experiments with
detailed instructions, through "design to a specification and test"
projects, to open-ended research and development projects. While students
must begin with the first type of laboratory exercises, these should be
minimized in favour of those calling for design and innovation. Our bias is
also towards learning to use equipment through need rather than experiments
designed for that purpose--after all, that is itself a skill worth
developing. In all, the options are varied and the objectives of each
laboratory project should be carefully thought out.
In conjunction with laboratory work the student will build up a
portfolio of engineering reports to be assessed as part of ENGG 100-6
(Engineering Communications), as will be described in greater detail later.
This course is
designed
to satisfy the eighth objective for skill
acquisition much more effectively than is usual.
Projects have objectives similar to laboratories but are much more
extensive in scope and call for greater planning, organization and attention
to the design process. It is common to have a major project as part of the
final year of engineering programs, and the explicit preparation of students
for the management of their project is a significant aspect of this program.
This preparation has several elements. In the first part of upper
division studies, the students have two required courses ENGC 301-3,
"Engineering Design", and ENOC 302-3, "Engineering Management".
Approximately one-half of ENGG 301 is devoted to a design project, perhaps

 
29
with competing design teams, and the other half to the formal study of the
process of engineering design. ENGG 302 will be modularized and look at
various aspects of engineering management from personnel to the scheduling
of finances. An important component of this course will be the choice of
the engineering project to be undertaken and the preparation of a management
proposal for the project. During the project itself, as the curriculum
specifies, part of the project registration will be assigned to ENGG 401-1.
This explicitly designates part of the project credit to the execution of
the management plan, an oral progress report and the, final project report.
The remaining credit will be based on the technical content and execution of
the project.
The objective of these innovations in the operation of the program's
laboratories and projects is to prepare the student for creative engineering
design and to develop professional skills. Instructional methods are used
in a manner which provides for greater flexibility in the student's schedule.
Core Course Objectives
The proposed engineering curriculum can be divided into four basic cores
or course groupings as shown on pages
35-36.
The role of the basics of the
mathematical, physical and computing sciences needs no further elaboration,
and the role of the specialized courses in the various engineering
disciplines is common to all curricula. The objectives of the courses
grouped under Society and Environment and General Engineering do, however,
call for some further explanation.
A) Society and Environment
Students are required to elect a minimum of 5 courses chosen from the
humanities and social sciences. To ensure that these form a cohesive

 
30
pattern the courses must receive approval of a faculty advisor. To
illustrate the intent of this
?
nent of the curriculum a sample program is
set out below as an example.
1)
EQJN
101-3,
The Canadian Economy. The intended role of this course
is to acquaint the student with the general economic environment in which he
will practice his profession.
2)
BUS
103-3,
Business in Society. While engineering can be regarded
as an abstract scientific enterprise, one of the goals of this program is to
orient the student towards the economic and business context. Hence the
inclusion of this course.
3)
One course which deals, at least in part, with interactions between
technology and society. Examples at S.F.U. of such courses include S.A.
202-4, Modern Industrial Society, CMNS 230-3, Introduction to Communication
Media, CMPT 260-3, Social Implications of a Computerized Society, and G.S.
227-3, On the Seriousness of the Future. The objective of the inclusion of
such a course in the curriculum is to ensure that the prospective engineer
is aware of the relationships between technological development and society
which pose moral, social and political dilemmas.
4)
Two additional electives allow the student to further explore the
humanities and social sciences. The student is required to select these to
make a cohesive pattern of related studies.
?
B) General Engineering
• ?
1) ENGG 100-6, Engineering Communication, is aimed at developing
proficiency in communication skills. These skills include graphical and
diagrammatic
communication and
spatial
visualization which
are part of the
rationale for
the conventional
freshman
drafting course.
However, we do not

 
31
propose traditional courses in technical writing and drafting. Rather, the
objective is a mastery-learning situation in which the student's exercises
or projects relate to his other work in the program. Thus a laboratory
report or an oral project report can be submitted towards the requirements
of ENGC 100-6. No formal time is scheduled but a series of workshops,
tutorials, mini-courses and the like are maintained along with a resource
centre. Detailed course specifications will depend on the student's program
in that, for example, the mechanical and electrical degree requirements
would differ. The essential features of the course are that all elements of
engineering communication are involved, it operates continuously through the
four years of the program, and the student is evaluated on a mastery basis
so that all graduates have adequate communications skills.
2)
ENGG 240-3, Industrial Engineering I, is the first of two courses
dealing with basic methods of operations research such as static
optimization and critical path scheduling which underly rational, analytic
decion making. Such fundamentals are critical in the preparation of the
student for practice in the 1980's and 1990's.
3)
ENGG 241-3, Industrial Engineering II, is similar to ENGG 240-3 in
its objectives, but introduces uncertainty and hence stochastic methods.
4)
ENQ3 341-3, Systems Dynamics, aims to make the student aware of the
dynamical nature of all systems and structures, and to provide the basic
tools for linear systems analysis.
?
-
5)
ENC 301-3, Engneeriflg Design, is included in the program to give
the upper division student an overview of the basic process of engineering
design problem solving. Case studies could be utilized, and a team project
will account for about one-half the course.
,

 
Al

6)
ENGG 302-3, Engineerinn
Management,
aims to acquaint the student
with the management side of
prL
ssionai practice and with related legal and
ethical considerations. Part
of
the course credit wIl be assigned to the
preparation of a management proposal for the student's Engineering. Project.
7)
ENCO 299-3,. Engineering Economics*, is a requirement of CAB and is
included to provide the student with the basics
of
practical economic
analysis applicable to engineering endeavours.
At this point, the basic nature
of
the program is apparent. It has a
strong professional orientation with a core in general engineering.
emphasizing communications skills, systems and economic analysis, and the
design and management processes. Basic sciences and mathematics are present
in the usual proportion as are broadening sttidies outside engineering. This
accounts for 80 semester hours, or
50%
of the curriculum. In the next
section we describe the programs in civil, electrical, mechanical, chemical
?
S
and computer engineering, and engineering science which constitute the
remaining 50% of the curriculum.
* The Department of Economics will develop this course, and it will be
given an EQJN number.

Civil Engineering
The modern civil engineer is responsible for the planning, design and
construction of a broad spectrum of works which enhance the hying conditions,
economic circumstances and environment of mankind. To carry out these works
economically, expeditiously and in harmony with the complete environment
requires an education which is soundly based in the fundamentals of the
sciences, mathematics, and societal context courses. This must be combined
with a professional program, which includes engineering science, design and
synthesis, and gives the student the capability to develop and manage complex
systems.
The curriculum for the Civil Engineering Pogram at Simon Fraser
University provides the firm basis of science and pathematcs on
which
the
technologically based engineering courses are developed. A large portion of
the program is common to other engineering p'pgrams providing
the
student with
a broad engineering background, .yet the options in the fourth
year provide the
opportunity for selectivity. In the S.F.U. program, familiarity With the
computer is developed at an early stage and its mastery comes with application
to many aspects of analysis and design. The emphasis on design cy lmiats in
the fourth year
w
h
e
n
th
e
student synthesizes his knowledge to carry out a
major design project.
In addition to courses in economics the student is presented with courses
to develop business and managerial skills.
The
civil engipeeng program
emphasises the development of resources that are appropriate for the Province
of British Columbia. Students who graduate from this program will have a
technological base tied to business management which will allow them to

 
39
participate professionally in the design and construction of such works as
highways, railways, airports, marine structures, buildings, and bridges using
the traditional engineering materials of timber, steel and concrete but with
the basic understanding to develop new ideas, concepts and forms. The
elective courses allow the student to orient himself to either the
manufacturing and processing industries or the resource extraction industries.

Electrical Engineering
The proposed curriculum supports specialization in three streams within
electrical engineering: electronics and communications, electrical power
systems, and digital systems. A minimal but quite sufficient array of
courses is suggested to sustain those three streams. More can be added as
student numbers grow.
The "high technology" area of electronics and communications has been
mentioned often as an area of concentration for the S.F.U. ehgineering
program. Given that orientation, which assumes significant studies in
computing and computer systems, and the existihg capabilities of the S.F.U.
Department of Computing Science, it is but a small step to include a digital
systems stream which provides for greater emphasis on '
computing hardware and
software. ?
S
Energy is another sphere of engineering activity of great importance in
British Columbia. This strongly suggests that power engineering be a
further option in electrical engineering. The orientation of the proposed
program is towards electrical power systems which shares a broad common
basis with the two other "systems" streams within the electrical engineering
program. Distributing, controlling and managing electric power is yet
another engineering activity in which the role of the computer as a systems
component is steadily increasing,, and to the computer emphasis of the
program is most appropriate.
As the listing of courses by semester shows, much of the curriculum is
compulsory in order to give the student a solid background in the
fundamental engineering sciences dealing with electromagnetic fields,

S
electric power generation, circuits and electronics, and communications and
control. In addition, the program stresses the ever growing role of the
computer by expanding on the computer courses in the common portion of the
engineering program. Seven courses plus the selected Engineering Project
topic provide for yet greater specialization in one of the three streams.
The sequencing of courses is critical because of prerequisite
requirements and the eight semester constraint for full-time students. The
balance between required and recommended courses is about equal, but this
depends on the option chosen. Specialized studies start in semester four.
A detailed study of the prerequisite structure shows that some pairs of
courses (ELEC 432 and
435,
ELEC 421 and 464) can be taken in either semester
six, seven or eight. Hence during the initial years of the program these
could be given in alternate years.
By virtue of its tight construction, and utilization of existing S.F.U.
courses and other engineering courses, only 18 courses in electrical
engineering are required. (This takes into account the two course saving
just noted.) Yet both depth and a good range of options are available.

Chemical Engineering
This program shares the common core of mathematics, science, societal
?
context and engineering science courses with the other engineering programs
but otherwise relies quite heavily on courses in the existing Chemistry
Department. Graduates of the program will have a solid systems, computing and
industrial engineering base which will particularly orient them to process
control and manufacturing processes. Specific electives are available in the
areas of extractive metallurgy, process control and biochemical engineering.
Because of its reliance on common core courses and on chemistry courses, the
Chemical Engineering Department will be quite small
(5
faculty).
Consideration will be given to whether this unit could be combined
administratively with the existing Department of Chemistry.

Computer Engineering
A single basic stream in computer engineering is recommended. The
graduate will have a background in electronics and both computer hardware and
software; the integration of this material will enable him to design systems
using computers and other electronic devices as basic components.
Given the electrical engineering program recommended for S.F.U., and the
orientations of the existing Department of Computing Science, this program
would not require additional lecture courses. Furthermore, assuming the
establishment of the proposed honors program in.Digital Systems Design, the
laboratory courses cMPE 301-3, 411-4, and 412-4 can be integrated with CMPT
391-3, Microcomputer Hardware Workshop, CMPT
495-3,
Digital Systems Design and
Specification Laboratory and CMPT 496-3, Digital Systems Implementation
Laboratory. Once the engineering programs were underway, other detailed
changes in both of the proposed programs could be instituted which would
strengthen both digital systems design and computer systems engineering. The
elective courses available to the students in both progrms would likely
increase as a result of this co-ordinated development.
Both of these programs are aimed at the ever developing need for computer
system designers. They provide a continuum of educational opportunities which
moves from conventional electrical engineering to electrical engineering with
a digital systems orientation, to computer systems engineering, to computer
systems design, to more conventional computing science. Each option has its
distinct features and the ensemble of programs represent an economic and
educationally innovative way to meet the range of needs of both students and
society.

 
69
The Computer Engineering Program is the same as for electrical engineering
until the end of the third semester; semesters 4 and 5 are also heavily based
on the electrical engineering program. The separation is more distinct in the
final two semesters. This close relationship is a consequence of the fact
that the program is a blend of the major elements of the electronics and
communications stream in Electrical Engineering with the "computer design and
organization" and "software systems" areas in Computing Science. The elective
courses demonstrate that the student can obtain considerable course choice
from existing computing science courses and those proposed for electrical
engineering.

ENGINEERING SCIENCE
The objective of this prog:
?
is to combine courses in science and
?
engineering into programs for students with high academic standing who are
planning continued study at the graduate level. The program provides two
options which can be tailored to the interests of the individual student. To
illustrate what is possible with the Engineering Science (General) option, two
sample programs have been set out with the following emphases:
?
I
(1)
Energy
(2)
Solid State Electronics.
For students who wish to emphasize Mechanics, the Engineering Science
(Mechanics) option provides a more specialized program.
Beyond the core program common to all of the engineering disciplines,
?
students in engineering science undertake further common study in science and
engineering, in addition to
.
more specialized courses. The aim is to provide a
strong, broad basis tempered with an opportunity to concentrate in an area of
particular interest.
The following tables give these overall requirements for engineering
science. Because of the wide variety of programs which are possible, the
semester by semester programs are not illustrated.

RESOURCES AND SCHEDULE FOR DE'iELOR'4ENT
The Faculty of Engineering will be designed to grow to an enrollment of
about 825 undergraduate students and 100 graduate students after 7 to 10
years. This would require about 40 faculty with the split between the
proposed departments being approximately as set out below:

This is comparable in size to the Engineering Schools of the University of
Calgary and Carleton University.
The detailed budgetary and space needs are currently being prepared.
Preliminary estimates indicate that the operating budget will grow over 7
years to $3,500,000 ($5,250,000 with a 50% overhead included). Capital will
be approximately $20,000,000 including $4,000,000 for equipment.
If the program is submitted to U.C.B.C. in January 1981 it could be
approved in the summer of 1981 for funding in April 1982. Thus a second
year class could enter in September 1982 (we already offer the first year of
Engineering). This class could probably be accommodated in existing space.
Beyond this point the situation is less clear. The Department of Physics
has expressed its willingness to accommodate laboratory classes for

 
82
Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering and Engineering Science, and it
is possible that Chemistry co" help Chemical Engineering. While these
departments might be able to give some help to other areas of engineering
they certainly could not accommodate all of the laboratories. Since a new
building could probably not be built before 1986 at the earliest (assuming
5
years for planning and construction with approval in 1981), either the 3rd
and 4th year Mechanical and Civil programs would ha'e to be delayed by three
years or space would have to be found off-campus (e.g. by renovating a
disused Burnaby school).
Accordingly, since the availability of off-campus space is uncertain, we
have set out two possible schedules for implementation. The first assumes
that Civil dnd Mechanical must be delayed for three years and the second
assumes that space can be found for simultaneous development of all programs.

GENERAL ENGINEERING COURSE DESCRIPTIONS
ENGG 100-6 Engineering Communications
Rationale
The objective of this course is to develop the student's written, verbal
and graphical communication skills to an acceptable level. The basic
premise is that these skills are best learned and demonstrated in the
context of the student's work in engineering. Evaluations of laboratory
reports, course essays, and project reports will, as a result, be central to
this course. Demonstrated competence is required and unsatisfactory work is
returned to the student to be done again. Communication skills must be
demonstrated at a satisfactory level before the student will receive course
credit.
Calendar Description
This course is spread throughout the duration of the engineering
program. It is concerned with written, verbal and graphical
communications. Course credit is obtained by demonstration of a proficiency
in the skills of engineering communication.
For the most part the need for communications will arise in various
courses in the program such as in laboratory reports, course essays and
project reports. Other activities will be specified for the particular
engineering program in which the student is enrolled. The final report and
interim oral report on the Engineering Project undertaken during the final

 
86
semester of the program will b -mponents of ENGC 100. This course will
also include essays based on ti, guest lecturer series. Visual literacy,
utilization of information resources such as libraries and computer graphics
are within the scope of this course.
Particular requirements will be specified as the student progresses with
his studies. A resource centre, tutorials, self-instructional materials,
audio-visual materials, lectures, mini-courses and other instructional
methods are utilized to aid the student in acquiring these skills which are
considered important in the practice of the engineering profession. The
student will formally register for the course in the semester in which all
requirements are completed. NOrmally this will be the eighth semester. The
course is graded on a credit/no entry basis.
ENGG 240-3 Industrial Engineering I
Rationale
This course aims to provide the student with an introductory
understanding of a number of basic methods of decision making, organization
and system optimization. Such techniques are fundamental to the analytic
approach to engineering design and management. Only deterministic methods
are considered.
Calendar Description
This course introduces the fundamentals underlying rational decision
making in large engineering systems and the concepts and the scope of
industrial engineering methods. The following topics will be examined:
static optimization; steepest descent and quadratic convergence strategies;

of the CAB and covers a widely accepted
?
group of topics relating to the determination of the financial viability of
engineering projects. ENCC 299-3 thus complements the courses in industrial
engineering, in engineering manageñient and in design by introducing the
financial elements of engineering work.

3-0-0
Rationale
While an engineering curriculum provides extensively for engineering and
science content, the general processes of engineering desigh and problem
solving are usually addressed only implicitly. This course is included to
ensure that the student has a basic acquaintence with these processes.
Calendar Description
The student's skills and knowledge focus
on
the study of several
engineering problems through the media of case studies and innovative
designs. The studies involve the inter-relationship
of
such factors as
problem definition, feasibility studies, specification, constraints,
modelling, analysis techniques, evaluation and prodUction. A design project

Rationale
Other courses provide background in the methods of system and economic
analysis, and engineering design and problem solving. These courses form
the analytical basis for engineering management and decision making. ENGG
302-3,
on the other hand, considers the qualitative side of management and
engineering practice.

Calendar Description
This is an introductory and overview course on modern management
concepts. Material is presented through lectures, seminars, case studies,
and historical review. The basic elements, tasks, functions and activities
of the management process including planning, organizing, staffing,
directing and controlling, dilemmas and constraints and management style
will be examined. Guest lecturers: will examine topics such as collective
bargaining and the psychology of management, etc. An orientation towards
the particular problems of engineering' practice is provided which includes
the legal, ethical and professional factors and project management.
Prerequisite: Upper Division Standing.

,.
90
Rationale
It is critical that an er eer have a deep appreciation of the
dynamical nature of engineering structures and processes and societal and
biological systems generally. The objective of this course is to provide
the depth of understanding which is associated with a capability to analyse
such systems. This study of linear system analysis also provides necessary
background for subsequent courses in control systems, and process analysis
and design.
Calendar Description
Properties of linear systems. Linear dynamic models of engineering
systems. Applications of the Laplace transform. Transfer functions. Block
diagrams. Frequency and time response. Effects of feedback on system
response. System simulation with analog and digital computers.
Prerequisite: MATH 310-3.
ENGC 401-1 Engineering Project A
Rationale
The Engineering Project provides an opportunity for the student to
deepen his knowledge of some specialized area of his chosen field and to
sharpen his analysis and synthesis skills. However, the project should also
be conducted and managed soundly. To ensure that this aspect receives
suitable attention, the management component is separated for special
attention as ENOG 401-1. Responsibility for assessing the student's
performance in this part of his project work rests with the Faculty of
Engineering (or equivalent group) rather than the student's major department.

 
. ?
p
Calendar Description
This course is taken together with the first part of the Engineering
Project. As part of that project. the student is required to prepare a
management proposal and to deliver an oral progress report. A satisfactory
level of performance in these two portions of the Engineering Project
constitutes the requirement for ENGG 401-1.
Prerequisite: Concurrent registration in semester 7 of an engineering
program.

2.4.8 The above criteria are regarded as desirable
long-term standard criteria for engineering
sciences and design and synthesis, to he ap-
plied to all engineering Bachelor's degree pro-
grams. However, from time to time the Board
may make a short-term downward adjustment
of the minimum requirements for engineering
sciences and design and synthesis, in indivi-
dual cases of new experimental programs. In
no case will the Board relax the requirement to
less than one and one half years of engineering
sciences and design and Synthesis combined.
2.5 ENGINEERING REGISTRATION
In the weighing of considerations for accreditation, the
3oard attaches central importance to.
the process of educational experience of the
student, as it is shaped by the curriculum and
work experience,
(ii)
the quality of the educational experience, as,
reflected by the quality of students, faculty,
overall administration and facilities and
(iii)
the distinguishing character of the educational
experience, as reflected by the engineering
competence and outlooks of faculty and ad-
visors.
In particular, this distinguishing character is considered vital
to the accreditation of any engineering degree program.
The Board expects this character to be clearly exhibited.
2.5. 1 rho Dean of Engineering (or equivalent e.ecu-
S
live officer,) is expected to provide a high order
of leadership in engineering education and to
be a registered engineer of high standing
among his peers.
2.5.2 The Chairman of an Engineering Department
(or equivalent administrative officer) is expect-
ed to provide a high order of leadership in en-
gineering education and to be a registered
engineer of high standing among his peers.
2.5.3 The Engineering Faculty Council or equivalent
legislative body is expected to have effective,
control of all engineering degree programs, in-
cluding accreditable programs such as Agri-
cultural Engineering, Geological Engineering,
Engineering Physics, and Engineering Che-
mistry which may be administered within other
Faculties.
2.5.4 Members of an Engineering Faculty are ex-
pected to be dedicated to the maintenance and
improvement of engineering education. Pro-
fessors of courses in the engineering sciences
or engineering design and synthesis in an ac-
creditable engineering degree program,
whether members of a Faculty of Engineering
or not, are expected to have a high level of
competence and to be dedicated to the aims of
engineering education and the profession; in
almost all cases such a dedication is expected
to be reflected in their being registered en-
gineers.

2.5 APPARTENANCE A L'ASSOCIATION/ORDRE
Dans la pondOration des exigences de l'accréditation, Ic
Bureau met Femphase principale sur:
(i)
la formation que- fournissent a l'étudiant son
programme deludes et son apprentissage pra-
tique.
(ii)
la qualite
do cette formation
qui
découte de cetle
des étudiants, du corps professoral, de la direc-
tion universitaire et dos installations matCrielles
et
(iii)
le caractbre distinctif que confèrent a cette
formation la competence du corps professoral et
la perception
qu'il
a de la profession.
On considère ce caractére distinctif comme one condition
essentielle de l'accréditation. Lo Bureau juge
quo
ce carac-
tère doit apparaitre clairement.
2.5.1
Le Doyen do la faculté de genie ou son équiva-
lent devrait étre un chef de tile reconnu dans le
?
domaine de 'education ci jouir comme ingé-
?
nieur de la plus haute estime de ses pairs;
2.5.2
Le Directeur de dOpartement ou.son équivalen'
devrait egalement être un chef de file reconnu
dans le domaine de l'éducation et jouir comme
ingénieur de la plus haute estime de ses pairs:
2.5.3
La faculté de genie, ou l'unité pédagogique et
administrative équivalente, doit, par son
conseil
ou tout autre corps correspondant, exercer un
contrOle effectif sur I'esprit et le contonu
do bus
• les programmes susceptibles dune accrédita-
?
• ?
tion, y compris le genie rural, le genie géolo-
• gique, le genie physique, la chimie appliquée ou
autres qui pourraient relever, administrative-
ment, de facultés différontes;
2.5.4
Les membros du corps professoral de la faculté
de genie doivent faire preuve d'un engagement
global envers le progres de Pa formation on
genie.
En
particulier, les professeurs charqOs
des cours de
synthèso
et de conception amnsi
que des enseignements en sciences dé genie
dans un programme susceptible d'accrOdita-
lion, quits appartiennent ou
non a
la facultó do
genie,
doivent faire preuve dune grande com-
petence et souscrire aux objectifs do la profes-
sion
et
de la formation de l'ingenieur; dans pra-
tiquement tous ces cas, cet engagement devrait
normalement se manifester par I'appartenance
a
l'Association/Ordre
des ingénieurs.
