Therefore, ChE’s take a Fluid Mechanics course separatelyfrom the ME’s with an increased focus on compressible flows. The aim of this study is toinvestigate how the integration of a collaboration on certain dates and specific assignments couldenhance the perception of multidisciplinary collaboration in upper-level chemical andmechanical engineering undergraduates.BackgroundInterdisciplinarity, multidisciplinarity and transdisciplinarity have been used broadly withoutrecognizing their main distinctions.
