Also, results of a literature search demonstrate thatnuclear engineering projects are exceedingly rare within interdisciplinary senior design.Therefore, a project management framework using results from an exploration of the literatureon interdisciplinary senior design to identify salient issues pertaining to nuclear engineering ispresented. Issues include raising awareness among faculty mentors from different subject areasabout potential project areas; addressing nuclear specific codes and standards; and challengeswhen working across disciplines in project funding, the student team formation process, studentcredit hours granted, and workload allocation for faculty advisors to the projects
