, and their progress is monitored, by theinstructor, who will assign a grade for the course. Although varied to a limited extent, theassignment of the grade is generally based on (a) homework problems, (b) quizzes and mid-temexams, (c) final exam, (d) project and laboratory reports (if any), and (e) other assignmentsincluding presentation of projects, which may be required in some courses.The senior capstone design course (ARE 4740 and CE 4740) requires a group project involving acomplete design that may contain a host of modules including architectural design, structuraland foundation design, cost estimating and bid document preparation, construction scheduling,building mechanical and electrical system design, lighting and acoustic systems

22.637.4General Studies Track: CurriculumModifications to the GS track after the fourth semester include the following:Making the previously required design classes after the fourth semester electives Design courses AET 352 Design IV and AET 367 Design V would be elective choices.Repositioning some of the technical specialties and professional electives In order to balance the number of credits per semester and provide required courses in an appropriate sequence, we had to rearrange our technical and professional electives.Making an elective thesis course a required capstone project course Previously our thesis course was not required and only our graduate bound students would take it. It would now be required by all and renamed AET 489

standards. Thisdiscipline includes, but is not limited to, the design of hot and cold water, storm, drainage and ventingsystems. Many documents, books and references are available covering the topics associated withplumbing. However, the majority of them are oriented toward plumbing techniques and practicalissues.Within this paper we discuss the integration of plumbing into the Architectural Engineering curriculum,as well as how high-rise plumbing can be taught for engineers. We also discuss how to combine thefundamentals, such as hydraulics, and different codes and standards, to create a successful class. Acomprehensive capstone project that will integrate various components of plumbing will be discussed inthis paper. The particularity of high
