Specifications include, but are not limited to: Creation of an Applied Engineering (AE) program for the Speed School of Engineering at the University of Louisville. Development of AE curriculum, including labs, equipment, personnel, and accreditation standards is needed by December 30, 2023. Reporting to the Senior Vice Provost at the University of Louisville (UofL), the Applied Engineering (AE) Consultant will help to develop the Applied Engineering program, with a particular emphasis on producing the curriculum, resources, and strategies needed to successfully deliver this program. It is anticipated that the AE consultant will assist with producing deliverables that meet the conditions and expectations for successfully delivering the proposed AE program. Working in tandem with UofL, the consultant will help us to develop: Syllabi A complete syllabus for each new AE course, including course title; pre-requisites; learning objectives and outcomes; course content and topics; weekly activities, including use of lab space and equipment; and methods for assessment 2+2 Flight Plan, with Course Equivalency Table In order to allow students to enter Elizabethtown Community & Technical College (ECTC) and seamlessly transfer to UofL to complete their degree in this program, the AE consultant will assist with producing a viable 2+2 flight plan that is acceptable to both institutions; as part of this work, they will also produce a Course Equivalency Table to outline which courses will be cross-listed and accepted for transfer credit. Resource Matrix For each independent offering of the program (including each course and student service), the AE Consultant will outline what resources are needed to deliver that offering (including requirements for instructors/staff, equipment, labs, and other resources); taken together, this cross-listing of offerings and their needs will form a Resource Matrix.
