Education, 2007 An Integrated Interdisciplinary Technology Project in Undergraduate Engineering EducationAbstractThe ever changing engineering curriculum mandates an emphasis on interdisciplinary projects.Through interdisciplinary projects, students will be exposed to a curriculum that allows them towork in teams of multi-disciplinary members with focus geared towards integrated technologies.This effort requires collaboration of students and faculty from multiple disciplines, and providesstudents an opportunity to learn from several other engineering systems. In addition, theseprojects will also help students to learn and deal with the societal aspects of engineering.The main focus of the paper is the

The curriculum currently is a 128 semester credit hourprogram like all of the other engineering degree programs at Louisiana Tech University.Recognizing that nanotechnology is a highly interdisciplinary field, our approach was to buildoff existing engineering curricula within our college and incorporate additional courses to covertopics that are more specialized to the field.

These modules covered the core conceptsof nanomaterials and unique phenomena at the nanoscale. Introducing the concepts ofnanoscience and engineering at this early stage of undergraduate education was found topositively impact student interest in registering for a technical elective nanotechnology coursethat we developed as our second initiative.
