We immediately saw the benefit of this arrangement fromthe feedback of our recent graduates in the industry. In this paper, the authors summarize whatwas learned from integrating manufacturing engineering concepts into mechanical designcurriculum, and incorporating global aspects of manufacturing in manufacturing engineeringcurriculum. We will outline some of the changes we have made to the curriculum and thechallenges we have faced. Topics of discussion also include immersing students in an industrialsetting in and outside of classrooms and hands-on project-based experiential

Typical seminar series includes presenters withexpertise in cutting edge topics are invited. Chemical engineering is expanding and manyresearch topics could address only a portion of the students. Further, conducting seminars for theentire duration of the semester may be cost prohibitive, leading to reduction in number ofseminars. Interestingly, there are very few seminars that introduce graduate students to non-technical content that could be paramount to their future success
