The U.S.construction industry has been slow to recognize the effects of globalization and manyconstruction programs at universities across the United States are hindered as a result. Ifeducation is behind the current industry, in incorporating courses that adequately preparestudents to compete and work in the global work place, their value as engineers is diminished.The construction industry is unique in that design, construction and maintenance of the physicaland naturally built environment on a global level requires not only technical information but alsorequires knowledge of local, regional

programs have gradually been re-populated with research Ph.Ds. instead ofjourneymen engineers, and the apprenticeship model of teaching engineering has been replacedwith a pedagogical model. We hire and reward professors for writing research grants rather thanfor stimulating innovation in the students or creating collaboration with engineering activity inindustry. Due to lack of experience in industry, what is taught in the curriculum is often notplaced into the context of the engineering risk reduction process. Consider how many of thegreat aircraft designers of the past century -- American or otherwise -- had a Ph.D. The answer,of course, is none. How many of these, regardless of their success in industry, could get a jobteaching aircraft design

The ideal is that co-workers with diverse backgrounds will be asked to collaborate on a project. However, as in the professional world, the senior design teams should reflect the competencies needed to successfully complete the project, which means that some majors will work together more naturally than others.  Collaboration with non-engineers can be problematic but worthwhile. The current project failed to foster an environment where an IT student felt he could be successful. Continuation of the multidisciplinary

This is particularlytrue for the engineering majors.There are efforts to cultivate more student-centered learning pedagogies in higher education(Bransford, Brown, and Cocking, 2000; McKenna, Yalvac, and Light, 2009). Transformingengineering education context from a teacher-centered orientation to a learner-centeredorientation is a common interest in engineering education research. Group work, formativeassessment, contextualized instruction, use of peer review and self-reflective tools, and out-ofclass collaborations are some learning-centered instructional strategies (Bransford, Brown, andCocking, 2000; Yalvac, Smith, Hirsch, and Troy, 2007; Yalvac, Smith, Hirsch, & Birol, 2006
