educationalfacilities needed may be too expensive to build while research facilities are not available, or evenappropriate, for undergraduate education. In the development of the facility described in thispaper, that of a low speed wind tunnel, the approach has been to ensure that the laboratory isadequate to address representative engineering problems, and adaptable enough for the student tolearn how to solve new problems by the suitable arrangement of models and instrumentation.The Wind Tunnel Teaching Facility at ASU PolytechnicMechanical and Aeronautical engineering technology programs deal with problems that areassociated with the interactions between fluids and other aspects of engineering.

-disciplinary engineering program was initiatedat the Polytechnic campus of Arizona State University. A key feature of this program is theemphasis on a Problem Based Learning (PBL) approach to engineering education. Under thispedagogy, students are assigned engineering projects that are carefully planned by the faculty sothat their completion requires mastery of specific sets of traditional engineering topics.Whenever possible, needed topics are presented by faculty members on a “just in time” basisthroughout the curriculum, so that students immediately apply theoretical knowledge to realworld engineering problems. This paper presents an example of the implementation of thispedagogy in a course designed to involve students in an ongoing research

All engineering programs necessarily begin withfoundational study, in mathematics, basic sciences, and underlying engineering principles.Explicit integration over this material, engagement with real-world products and research, andpresentation of ideas usually happens only in upper-level courses (e.g. Garcia and Sinfeld 2011).This structure of curricula is sensible given the goal of proper foundation preceding higherdifficulty challenges.The big ideas and real-world challenges, however, are the elements that attract many students toengineering in the first place.

However, this course often centers on purely technical aspects of thetreatment of water and wastewater with an occasionally diversion into air quality.Although sustainability has become a fashionable buzzword and many engineeringprograms are eager to attract research funds to address issues associated with greenmanufacturing, industrial ecology, etc., few programs have found it necessary to educatethe undergraduate engineers who will comprise the majority of the future workforce inthese pressing topics.
