Although the larger goal of integrating general science, math andcommunication proved unrealistic at this time, the core ME curriculum was integrated. Finally,to achieve the objectives related to teamwork, project management and professionalresponsibility, the faculty decided to include a long-term service-learning design projectspanning the first year. For this project, students would work in teams to address the needs of anexternal client. Many similar models exist in the literature. For example, the ROXIE9 program atVirginia Tech engages a cohort of freshmen in the design process through a large number ofservice projects

looking at the first year curriculum that introduces calculus and physics courses,often taught by non-engineering faculty, but that are fundamental to the core of engineering. As aresult, there have been several attempts at integrating math into other courses in an effort toencourage that transfer [2, 13-16]. Instead of a separate “math” course, calculus is taught throughoutmultiple courses, as topics are needed, allowing for a clear relationship between the how and thewhy. This model provides increased motivation for, and transfer of, calculus to other relatedareas, in part because terminology differences are quickly resolved. The increased learning andmotivation associated with such models often improves student retention[16]. In their work

Barriers that exist for integrative learning in higher education today often point to afragmented undergraduate curriculum (collections of independent classes in general education,specialized study, and electives) and the organization of knowledge into distinct and separatecolleges and departments, “even though scholarship, learning, and life have no such artificialboundaries” (p. 16) (7). Learning communities, capstone experiences, and service learningprojects can transcend these barriers by organizing around interdisciplinary themes, linkingcross
