Education program (NSF IUSE), three community colleges from NorthernCalifornia collaborated to increase the availability and accessibility of the engineeringcurriculum by developing resources and teaching strategies to enable small-to-medium sizedcommunity college engineering programs to support a comprehensive set of lower-divisionengineering courses. These resources were developed for use in a variety of delivery formats(e.g., fully online, online/hybrid, flipped face-to-face, etc.), providing flexibility for localcommunity colleges to leverage according to their individual needs. This paper focuses on thedevelopment and testing of the resources for an introductory Materials Science course with 3-unit lecture and 1-unit laboratory components

At the graduate level this validationstep is often excluded, so students end up with the skills to build complex models, but never to setup realistic experimental conditions and accurate data acquisition systems to test these models.Our goal was to provide the educational structure to teach the integration of the two disciplines,but to also take it a step further and have the exemplar

, less than 5% of the undergraduate degrees awarded in the US are in engineering,compared to 13% in European countries and nearly 25% in Asia [1]. It is becoming increasingly clearthat universities in the United States must adapt their teaching and retention practices to adequatelyprepare students to fill critical roles in a technology focused, multi-disciplinary workplace [2]. Thedesire for a more interdisciplinary approach to undergraduate engineering education is evident as thetransition to more geographically disparate teams is driving the need for engineering professionals todemonstrate that they possess not only the requisite technical acumen, but skills like communication,teamwork and conflict resolution that are not typically taught in
