A case study is presented herein of how student learningexperiences with the AR sandbox have been woven throughout the undergraduate civilengineering curriculum at Villanova University. A series of progressive AR sandbox learningactivities have been implemented in freshmen and junior-level civil engineering courses, andadditional modules are planned for other courses in the sophomore and senior years. Planningand implementation of these modules has been a collaborative effort between faculty acrossmultiple disciplines within the department (geotechnical, water resources, and structuralengineering).

Moreover,the shift in the demographics, based on recent census data, calls for the need to diversify theworkforce by attracting and training underrepresented minority groups into engineering andscience.

The two primary challenges were: (1) academic - how tointroduce and promote inquiry-based learning given the constraints, and (2) business - how toobtain and sustain funding for student-based research.
