    • One Page Portfolio Reflection Essay

Assignments should be arranged in chronological order by course.

One Page Portfolio Reflection Essay Instructions

Length: Approx. 250–350 words.

Instructions: Review the Computer Engineering Program Learning Objectives (PLOs) listed below. Select at least three of these objectives and briefly discuss how you have improved in these areas.

In your reflection, be sure to:

  1. Explain how you will use these skills in your future career or studies.

  2. Refer to specific assignments, projects, or papers in your portfolio that prove you’ve met those objectives.

Program Learning Objectives:

  • Apply Knowledge: Demonstrate the ability to apply knowledge of math, science, and engineering.

Submit your Portfolio and Essay to Dr. Gardner, the ECE Graduate Program Director, at least two weeks before graduation.

Once your Portfolio is approved, he will notify Rainie Ingram that she can complete the Thesis/Report/Portfolio Approval requirement in CatTracks. Your CatTracks must reflect 100% for your official diploma to be awarded. This occurs after all grades have been posted and all requirements have been fulfilled.
