Founded in 1893, the American Society for Engineering Education (ASEE) is a global society of individual, institutional, and
corporate members. ASEE’s vision is excellent and broadly accessible education empowering students and engineering pro-
fessionals to create a better world. We work toward achieving that vision by advancing innovation, excellence, and access
at all levels of education for the engineering profession. We engage with engineering faculty, business leaders, college and
high school students, parents, and teachers to enhance the engineering workforce of the nation. We are the only profes-
sional society addressing opportunities and challenges spanning all engineering disciplines, working across the breadth of
academic education including teaching, research, and public service.
• We support education at the institutional level by linking faculty and staff across disciplines to create enhanced
student learning and discovery.
• We support education across institutions by identifying opportunities to share proven and promising practices.
• We support education locally, regionally, and nationally by forging and reinforcing connections between academia,
business, industry, and government.
• We support discovery and scholarship among education researchers by providing opportunities to share and build
upon findings.
• We support innovation by fostering the translation of research into improved practices.
• We support disciplinary technical researchers by disseminating best research management practices.

1 ENGINEERING IN 2019
Joseph R. Roy, Ph.D.
In the fall of 2019 the ASEE began replacement of the Profiles data collection system and the Engineering Data Management System (EDMS).
All aspects of the data collection process are being upgraded, including our production of the descriptive statistics of engineering and engineering
technology programs. The Engineering by the Numbers has been expanded this year to a dynamically linked document meant to be easier to navigate.
There is also a separate section on engineering technology included as well.
For engineering disciplines there has been a 7.5% increase in 2019 for the number of engineering bachelors degrees awarded while there was a 0.4%
decrease in undergraduate enrollment. For masters programs, both degrees awarded and enrollment decreased, 4.9% and 7.0% respectively. Doctoral
programs mirrored undergraduate program changes from 2018 by increasing the number of graduates (5.3%) with a small increase in enrollment (-3.0%)
for 2019. The remainder of this report highlights changes this year along and some noticeable trends in the data that may be of interest to the reader.

In the figure above, we remove institutions awarding less than 50 bachelors degrees, which leaves a total of 257 institutions. We categorize institutions
as small programs with 400 or less graduates, medium programs with between 400 and 1000 graduates and then over 1000 graduates as a large program.
We can see the distribution in the violin plot with a traditional box-plot situated within each violin of the data. The violins represent the mass of the
data (we can see the widest part occurs at the median for each program size). The trend is that larger programs have larger ratios, unsurprisingly, but
there are some institutional exceptions seen in the black dots, at the high and low end of the distribution.

8 ENGINEERING TECHNOLOGY IN 2019
Joseph R. Roy, Ph.D.
There has been a 13.4% increase in Bachelor degrees awarded in Engineering Technology in 2019 and a sizable increase in enrollment, 20%, that could
be due the inclusion of more institution’s data this year (only 64 were included in 2018 versus 113 institutions in 2019).

Even though there are not many 2-4 year certificates awarded in 2019, just over 300 awarded in the US, the vast majority of those were from programs
at 2-year institutions as well.

The Profiles of Technical Workforce Programs and Students at Two-Year Colleges will begin building a national survey instrument to further explore

10 SURVEY DEFINITIONS
Joseph R. Roy, Ph.D.
Below are the definitions used for the Profiles Survey. The definitions are the same for both the Engineering and Engineering Technology portions of
the survey.
10.1 Race/Ethnicity
The definitions of race/ethnicity align with the US Department of Education’s data collections in order to ensure that institutions have and can report
the data requested. We do not survey individual students or faculty, but institutions and only receive total (unduplicated) headcounts for each program
or department we collect data for.
American Indian or Alaska Native: A person having origins in any of the original peoples of North and South America (including Central
America), and who maintains tribal affiliation or community attachment.
Asian: A person having origins in any of the original peoples of the Far East, Southeast Asia, or the Indian subcontinent including, for example,

10.2 Gender
Institutions were given an option how to report their data for graduation, enrollment and faculty counts.
Gender Category Options:
-Male/Female -Male/Female/Non-binary Gender/Another Gender or Unknown
Institutions that choose the binary gender option spreadsheet, are reporting data to ASEE as it would be reported to the U.S. Department of
Education’s Integrated Post-Secondary Education System (IPEDS) survey. Gender for individuals (student or faculty) which is unknown or another
gender besides male or female would be reported in one of the two categories (male or female) selected by the institution, as noted in the IPEDS FAQ’s.
Under this option, institutions included counts for all individuals.
For the second option, institutions were asked to report with four gender categories: -Male -Female -Non-binary Gender -Another Gender or Unknown
This change has been made in response to a request from institutions to reflect their changing student and faculty composition. Please see the technical
review panel discussion from 2016 for more information about the collection of gender information at a national level.

• Tuition and fees (published charges): The amount of tuition and required fees covering a full academic year most frequently charged to students.
These values represent what a typical student would be charged and may not be the same for all students at an institution. If tuition is charged
on a per-credit-hour basis, the average full-time credit hour load for an entire academic year is used to estimate average tuition. Required fees
include the fixed sum charged that are required of such a large proportion of all students that the student who does not pay the charges is an
exception.
