nature of the teams were such that each student neededto provide specific skills in order to complete the project. After completion of the course,the authors noted that a key concern was that the civil engineering students did notparticipate as much as the students from the other disciplines.Another potential issue with multidisciplinary capstone design involving civil andenvironmental engineers is the scale of the infrastructure design projects that arecommon in these disciplines.

Withan industry interface, the capstone is critical to enrich the student experience in complex building designthrough simulating the project to be “more real world” than traditional capstones. This capstonedistinguishes itself by the level of relatively independent work done by the student teams (vs. teaching bythe faculty), heavy industry practitioner interactions, mentoring roles of the faculty and lastly, utilizingreal industry projects

Lastly, we previously stated that canvases are often created by experts to modela real-world system and that capstone students operate somewhere between novice and expert.The process of creating the canvases as students, while not necessarily resulting in “expert”canvases, can help students as they take the next steps in their transition from novice to expertdesigners.
