But students at home cannot easily measure drag forces (or infer themfor a wide range of objects and velocities). As another example, the results of deformation ofdroplets as they impact surfaces can be presented in a universal way using dimensionless numbers(dimensionless deformation and Weber number) [6]; however, this phenomenon requiresequipment beyond the means of even a typical undergraduate teaching laboratory!

As a part of the process of becoming an interdisciplinary physics and engineeringdepartment, and based on prior success at teaching physics with open-ended projects in theupper-level undergraduate curriculum [1], we are studying how these projects can also be used toteach engineering skills and principles. Of particular interest to us are questions related to i) howbest to use existing assets (e.g. laboratory equipment, faculty expertise) within a physics andengineering department to create a thriving engineering laboratory curriculum, and ii) to

InstructionMotivationUndergraduate engineering programs seek to train students in the process skills of engineering,which include designing hypotheses, identifying and synthesizing relevant literature, interpretingand analyzing data, and presenting findings [1]. While engineering educators routinely reportthat engineering process skills are critical, many report difficulty teaching students these skillsdue to time constraints [2]. Librarians, who specialize in the organization of information anddata, are well-equipped to help biomedical engineering (BME) educators address some of thesegaps in their students’ learning [3].
