Education, 2018 Integrated Learning In Context for Heat Exchanger AnalysisAbstractAn Engineering Technology program is developing a new vertically integrated undergraduateenergy systems curriculum that crosses traditional course boundaries. The goal is for students torecognize and understand energy conversion in a more comprehensive way by showing howsimilar processes occur in different disciplines. Courses in thermodynamics, electrical powergeneration, fluid power, manufacturing processes, and internal combustion engines are all beingmodified to include modules on energy conversion as a unifying and integrating theme. Thispaper targets one module of this comprehensive multi-course re-design, where a two-weeksegment of an introductory

Indeed, althoughmost institutions have not yet found a way of integrating STEM and humanities learning within asingle course, a surprising number of these experiments have been tried [26, 16, 11, 12, 3, 4, 27],including in the first-year curriculum [28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33].
