potential gap through extensiveinteraction between the Architectural Engineering (ARCE) and the Architecture (ARCH)Departments, two of five departments located within the college. The ARCE Department hastraditionally taught a sequence of five structural courses to ARCH students with the goal ofgiving them structural engineering skills so that in their careers as project leaders they will betterunderstand structural engineering systems and principles. With this ability they can betterproduce efficient integrated designs, collaborate effectively with their structural engineeringconsultants and lead more successful projects.Although the five course structural sequence has been comprehensive and has given theArchitecture students the skills needed to

students and facultyagree on levels of creativity when they see it, regardless of a set definition and without facultystating their opinions during the design and critique process. Students were asked to apply anumber of architectural design concepts to a simple one-day design problem. They thencomparatively analyzed and critiqued the projects in group discussion that was moderated by thefaculty. Students were also asked to privately journal their observations and select withoutdiscussion a set number of the most successful projects in the class. Successful projects weredefined as ones that applied these concepts in a creative way to produce a solution. Theproblems were purposely left somewhat ill-defined with few constraints that allowed for a

This paper describes a one credit hour, semester long, project undertaken byMArch students alongside a required course in Structural Engineering Design. Studentsundertook conceptual design of pedestrian bridges. After a class wide study of innovativeprecedents, they worked in small groups and were required to choose and analyze a site,and propose an initial structural scheme. A minimum clear span was required to pushmore ambitious spanning strategies. They then performed a Finite Element Analysis andsized all the primary structural members of the bridge. The

This process includes an entire steel buildingdesign, from building code research through preliminary and final design of a steel structure toproduction of construction documents for the project.Historically this course has centered around a steel building design project in which studentteams where responsible for the design and documentation of the steel structure. Based on thatcourse model, problems became apparent in subsequent structural design courses and in thecomprehensive design studio. These problems included the fact that a large percentage of thestudents were not aware of the structural design process necessary to complete a buildingdesign. A

The LEED forHomes Rating System provides minimal description for achieving lighting credits towardcertification and little supplemental information about lighting to educate the homeowner orother lay person. As a result, homeowners are left to rely on their own consumer informationwith regard to maintaining an energy efficient lighting system and over time can become lesssatisfied with the aesthetic and functional results.This paper reviews and examines an educational experience across interior design andarchitectural technology disciplines to learn about energy efficient lighting and apply it in aconsumer education effort.

The courses were delivered in face-to face mode andalso selections were offered by distance education. The programs were arrangedon a “nested” basis with a progression of qualifications from Graduate Certificate,Graduate Diploma on to Master’s level.Once the program began, it was found impossible to sustain without additionalstaff.

At our institution, architectural engineering and constructionmanagement students collectively attend 2 non-design courses (Graphics I (manual drafting) andMaterials and Methods of Construction I courses) in their freshmen year. Other than briefexercises, such as the incorporation of a field trip to a construction site, a soil sieve test lab, andprovision of material samples and construction videos in the classroom, both of these courses areheavily dependent on two and three-dimensional graphics to

This process, without additional methods, can lead to afalse sense of success in a course, and it becomes necessary to find alternate methods for furtherassessment.For the comprehensive design studio course, alternate methods of assessment have beenemployed.

Key faculty in theStructural and Construction Engineering groups were closely following trends in the AECindustry, and through a variety of course offerings, were seeing the use of 3D CAD and 4Dsimulation tools emerging in student projects. A key course in this respect was the AEC GlobalProject Course (see http://pbl.stanford.edu/ClassWeb2008/Experiences/exp.htm) offered byStanford University in which UW students and faculty mentors have participated since spring2005.
