Students were also given theopportunity to interact with an off-campus client, which provided an additional uniqueexperience that is not typically found in the classroom. This interaction allowed students tofurther develop their project management and communication skills. This paper will describe theresults of the project, assess the methodologies used to educate the students and review theimpacts of this approach on incorporating novel content into an engineering curriculum.IntroductionHow can students be taught new ideas in emerging technologies in a timely manner?

handling and manufacturing sensitive materials from nuclear waste to weaponcomponents to spent fuel. Design in this challenging domain requires an interdisciplinaryexpertise in nuclear engineering and flexible automation (robotics). Our experiences have shownthat there is a shortage of interdisciplinary trained engineers in this area which has led to either1) an inherent lack of cutting edge automation technologies in the nuclear domain or 2) aninability to precisely define the operational and environmental requirements for proposedautomation systems. This paper outlines the generalized material and course requirements for aninterdisciplinary graduate program from domain relevant application requirements as well asinteractions with the DOE complex
