Types of mapping:
There are a variety of approaches to mapping, each with a different emphasis depending on what programs choose to highlight. Before mapping can begin, preliminary data needs to be gathered. An example of this is:
Introduce, Taught, Utilized (ITU) Surveys
ITU surveys are conducted to find out where CEAB graduate attributes are introduced, taught, and utilized (ITU) in courses. This process is well established, and there are multiple papers available on the subject using a web search engine of your choice, including:
The following are graphic results of one program’s ITU surveys for all 12 graduate attributes across all four years of the department’s undergraduate program (Click on title to expand; Click on image to enlarge):

ITU survey results may help identify gaps in the ways graduate attribute development is supported. One gap evident in the presented data above is that attribute 3.1.10 (Ethics & Equity) is not introduced, taught or utilized at all in the second year of this engineering program.
