multidisciplinarity of a team drives communication andargumentation decisions. This study investigated how team multidisciplinary (denoted“disciplinary diversity” of the design team) affects the communication strategies employed bysenior-level engineering design students at a large, public university.MethodsContext and Data Collection. This study was conducted on transcripts of student presentationsgiven for the Fall 2019 Senior Design Showcase at a large R1 university in the Mid-Atlantic UnitedStates. The Senior Design Showcase projects were scoped to solve real-world engineeringproblems experienced by industry sponsors. One of the core components of the Senior Designcurriculum is that teams are multidisciplinary (i.e., the teams include students from
