Inthis changing environment, students will be challenged to develop better skills in communicatingand cooperating across demographic barriers.

Undergraduate students need research experience to be introduced to theinterdisciplinary nature of product development and manufacturing. Research experiencecomplements the undergraduate education that is concerned with the basic concepts of scienceand engineering. The author, in the last three years, has involved five undergraduates through testing newideas to develop material processing and manufacturing technologies. These idea-based projectsare termed by the author as "creative projects". Each creative project is completed in twosemesters.
