manufacturing strategy that has beenadopted by manufacturers world-wide. Immersing students in the context of lean manufacturingstrategies required a combination of manufacturing facility tours and simulation type exercises inlab. This made the class more challenging, motivating, and enjoyable, while allowing students toacquire the basic knowledge and skills needed by industry. Class evaluations, collected over foursemesters, reveal that PBL is a strong approach to teaching an introductory level leanmanufacturing course.IntroductionManufacturers in the US are forced to increase the pace at which they adopt and integrate newtechnologies into their operations due to competitive pressures that force them to become moreefficient.

Page 12.325.1© American Society for Engineering Education, 2007 Bringing New Topics into the IE CurriculumAbstractThe need to focus efforts on environmental concerns rings important to young people aswell as to the National Academy of Engineers. The need to raise awareness about theenvironmental impact of decisions in manufacturing and product design should be at theforefront of curriculum enhancement efforts. Industrial Engineers are typically viewed as“systems thinkers” and need to analyze the larger eco-system when new designs are putin place. Thus, the systems-approach to environmentally responsible design andmanufacturing has a natural place in the Industrial Engineering curriculum.The challenge to engineering faculty may
