I'm on the Advisory Board for the MSPCI. We had a great board meeting this afternoon. Talked about the curriculum for the course and challenges of keeping the degree program meaningful and current. This is a dynamic field that this course is providing a degree in.
Unlike many (I'll call them diploma mills) this is a two year program that is pretty rigorous with 52 graduate credits. They are looking to revise the curriculum, adding a transportation course for 2009. I suggested having a course that addresses the impacts of climate change and adaptation since critical infrastructure will have some issues to deal with. It was on the list of things they were considering.
