For thepast twenty years, at the authors’ institution, the final experiment has been an open-endedexperience; however, students occasionally struggle to identify and perform a detailed study dueto limited exposure to an experimental research environment and lack of directions.

statement would suggest that we, as evaluators and educators, wouldneed to change our approach to teaching Engineering Technology in order to gear our programsto that of our customer’s experiences and expectations.But do we need to do this? Although the buzzwords today are on computer simulations, virtualreality, etc., I do not feel that the needs of the “real world” have changed. There is still a need tobe able to have that “hands-on” experience that only an Engineering Technologist has and canbring to the work force.To this end, laboratory experiments should be laid out in such a manner as to duplicate a “realworld” situation. These experiments should be designed so as to build on the previousexperiment, just as classroom lectures build on one

As a part of the process of becoming an interdisciplinary physics and engineeringdepartment, and based on prior success at teaching physics with open-ended projects in theupper-level undergraduate curriculum [1], we are studying how these projects can also be used toteach engineering skills and principles. Of particular interest to us are questions related to i) howbest to use existing assets (e.g. laboratory equipment, faculty expertise) within a physics andengineering department to create a thriving engineering laboratory curriculum, and ii) to
