acting,working, collaborating, etc.). Individual choice then is pressured by network peers to conform totheir normative processes and practices. In academia, challenges of interdisciplinarity can beparticularly strenuous. Engineering as a discipline can be viewed as a large network, but when youexamine engineering more closely, you understand that the various subdisciplines are strongnetworks with ties (connections) to the overarching network of engineering. Sometimes crossingdisciplinary lines, even from one subdiscipline of engineering to another can be particularlydifficult – especially as institutional factors (like Tenure & Promotion) are taken intoconsideration. Needless to say, this can be particularly challenging for those

Engineering programs ask their advisory board or council for input, and also rely ontheir internal panel of faculty experts, as well as exploring practice at peer university programs.Methodology-wise, industrial engineering faculty have used system theory[1], domain analysis[2]and structural models[3] as an aid in curriculum development.
