摘要:This paper describes the third year of a mixed methods explanatory case study to examine fourth year engineering student perceptions of the CEAB graduate attributes in the Mechanical Engineering program using a student exit survey and student focus group interviews. The purpose of this paper is to report students’ perceptions of their graduate attribute competency levels and the program’s graduate attribute strengths and weaknesses in a three-year continuum, supporting the findings with the data from three student focus group interviews. This investigation offers the faculty an understanding of its student engineering stakeholders’ perceptions of how the CEAB graduate attributes are manifest in the Mechanical Engineering program. It will be used to provide feedback at instructor, program and faculty levels as the University of Manitoba’s Faculty of Engineering furthers its efforts towards achieving a continuous cycle of improvement
