Indeed, in its 1955 Report on Evaluation of EngineeringEducation (known as the “Grinter Report”)1, a panel sponsored by the American Society forEngineering Education (ASEE) stated: “Engineering is far from static, for it is essentially a creative profession.”This sentiment is echoed in the Summary Report of the 1995 Civil Engineering EducationConference2: “…civil engineering education should be continually evolving to higher levels of quality and at all times incorporating new technologies and practices into the civil engineering education process.”In keeping with these statements, the engineering profession has witnessed an acceleration of thebreadth, depth, and magnitude of change

, as it involves a cultural change from the silo approach to a holistic approach. TheABET-required senior capstone multidisciplinary design course too often becomes a design-build-test exercise with the emphasis on just getting something done. Students rarely break outof their disciplinary comfort zone and thus fail to experience true multidisciplinary-system,model-based design. What is needed are multidisciplinary systems courses, with a balancebetween theory and hardware, between academic rigor and the best practices of industry,presented in an integrated way in the 2nd and 3rd years that prepares students for truemultidisciplinary-system, model-based engineering at the senior level and beyond.Do technological universities and industry have
