Integrated Projects course focused oncreating innovative technology for smart cities initiatives. Four sub-teams will be working ondifferent aspects of smart cities: including quantified cities, autonomous vehicles, connectedinfrastructure, and shared mobility.IntroductionA new project-based course will form research teams that design and prototype technologicalinnovations to address the needs of smart cities. This technology will be designed with respect tothe need for data collection and processing essential to the operation of connected cities. ThisVertically Integrated Projects (VIP) course at NYU Tandon School of Engineering willcoordinate with the Civil and Urban Engineering (CUE) department and the Center for UrbanScience and Progress (CUSP

The motivation behind the decision to add this project was to assign acourse project that: 1) provided the students with a hands-on way to learn about concrete mixdesign and the sustainable aspects of concrete, 2) required the students to work in teams and 3)allowed the students to be creative and think outside the box. These were set as three goals of theterm project and their success was evaluated through

most pressing science and engineering challenges are trans-national innature and many of the leading scientific and engineering resources are located outside theUnited States. In order to remain at the forefront of science, technology, engineering, andmathematics (STEM), the United States needs to nurture a globally-engaged STEM workforcecapable of performing research in an international environment. To help address this need, theNational Science Foundation’s International Research Experiences for Students (NSF-IRES)program supports the development of globally-engaged U.S. science and engineering studentscapable of performing in an international research environment.

One of the most valuable innovations for both educationand engineering has been the field of virtual environments, which are defined assimulations of data and methods created and presented in a wholly or partially digitalspace.

benefits of active learning, the nextquestion may be, “How do engineering faculty incorporate active learning in the classroom giventhe constraints of time and the amount of material that needs to be covered?” One potentialanswer to this question is the flipped or inverted classroom. The flipped or inverted classroomcan be defined as one where students obtain content from technology and apply that content withhelp from the instructor in class (Margulieux et al. 2014). The flipped classroom provides ameans of enabling the same amount of material to be covered by having students first interactwith the content outside of the classroom and then spend class time actively engaging with thematerial they were introduced to prior to attending class.With
