principles at the undergraduate level. The use ofhands-on simulations and a rich visual environment facilitates learning of abstract conceptsand stimulates student interest.IntroductionWithin the last fifteen years, computer-based simulation has become an integral part ofdesign, analysis and research in fluid dynamics. As in other fields of engineering, the in-creasingly widespread use of computation has been driven by the dramatic reduction in thecost of computing hardware and the maturing of off-the-shelf, commercial software pack-ages. Despite the prevalence of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software in industryand research, their use in our undergraduate curriculum has been slight to non-existent

Our expertise in our own field is assumed, yet I doubt thereare many writing instructors who can claim to never have felt a bit out of their league withthe content of a student’s technically-based writing assignment.This paper concerns a question I have been thinking about for some time: How muchtechnical/engineering knowledge does a humanities-trained communications instructorneed to teach well in the engineering school environment?
