We recruited four senior student groups.They worked in four different Capstone design projects at a public university in the mountainwest of the United States of America. Two groups were recruited from the BE department, andanother two groups were recruited from the MAE department. Various qualitative andquantitative data was collected.

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

As intheir United States counterpart, the 2015 Australia and New Zealand surveys includedquantitative, categorical, and open-ended questions on capstone course information, pedagogy,evaluation, faculty, students, projects and teams, expenses and funding, sponsors, and respondentexperience and opinion. This paper presents highlights of the resulting data by country, drawingcomparisons where possible across countries: Australia, New Zealand, and the United States.Overall, the essence of capstone design courses in the three countries is quite similar; there arevariations in implementation details, but

in authentic cross-disciplinary design projects. While guidance fromprofessors with industry experience and teaching techniques such as project-based and servicelearning are common approaches to supporting student preparation, there is continued need fordesign education to include a focus on the development of skills to support communicationacross disciplinary and team boundaries (e.g., shared language and clarity of narrative). Theseskills, which are frequently thought of as non-engineering work, are as critical to the completionof cross-disciplinary projects as skills associated with conventional engineering design work(i.e., design and technical practices).
