The primary goal of our undergraduate program is to produce engineers who are one step ahead of their peers, who have begun to prepare themselves for more than just their entry-level jobs. In order to accomplish this, we seek improvements to the educational process outside the classroom and ways to encourage students to have a more direct role in their own personal development. For this purpose, we present here the Notre Dame Electronic Portfolio (NDeP) project, which is designed to help us meet this goal. To date, we have successfully launched the NDeP project to a class of ～80 chemical engineering sophomores who were able to create electronic portfolios, and we were able to assess these portfolios using a rubric developed for this purpose.
