As an example of howCMI2’s facilitation supports success, this paper’s Appendix includes an example Customer NeedsStatement for the LMTV camouflage deployer project carried out by UF ME. Developing thisdocument required several iterations between UF and 3ID to settle on parameters that met theArmy’s need to reduce vehicle camouflage deployment time while aligning with UF’s budget,resource, and experience constraints.Camo deployer development through UF ME and GT ME Capstone proceeded in three steps acrossmultiple semesters. First, given a Customer Needs Statement created in advance of the courses,undergraduate senior Capstone students developed

this differs from their understandingof education research through their next sentence: ”But education research is not that way, where there is always a correct answer.” - Participant 4Participant 4’s statement indicates how many graduate students in the ESED department use their linguistic capital fromtheir specific disciplines within education research. Similar to other graduate students within ESED, participant 4 brings theirdisciplinary expertise into the L&L space; which melds with the language from other STEM disciplines, resulting in a richmethod of communicating research to people in and outside of the space. In another statement, participant 4 also explains howthey value the linguistic capital others bring. ”It’s important

The Tower Bridge will housemilitary ordnance and allow passage of military ships through its channel defined by a 12” x 12”cross-sectional area. The iconic London Bridge is a classic example of Tower Bridges. It consistsof two Towers connected by platform(s) that allow for transporting land vehicles and cargo whileships and other aquatic vehicles pass through or under the platform. In the case of LondonBridge a drawbridge swings upwards to allow for boat traffic [7].

What follows is a largely oral history gathered and consoli-dated from UGA engineering faculty members, all of whom wish to remain anonymous.By the late 1800’s, the state of Georgia had two engineering colleges, UGA and the Georgia In-stitute of Technology (hereafter known as Georgia Tech). UGA graduated its first engineeringstudents in 1868. However, during the Depression in the 1930’s, the state determined it could notafford to fund two engineering colleges and decided to focus the engineering program at

that teams affected with either situation were provided appropriate accommodations.o Prototyping v/s mass production: It was observed that students struggled with differentiating between a manufacturing plan for a functional prototype versus a manufacturing plan for mass production. This might have been because students’ knowledge of manufacturing processes grows during their time in ManP and they may be developing manufacturing plans without a full understanding of manufacturing.6. Conclusions and RecommendationsThis paper presented the design of a two-semester design-and-build interdisciplinary project.
