One of the mainobjectives is to teach students from novice to expert users preparing them with adequate fluidmechanics fundamentals and hands-on CFD project works to prepare for their capstone designprojects, higher education and advanced research in fluid mechanics. We have planned toincorporate a CFD educational interface for hands-on student experience in fluid mechanics,which reflects real-world engineering applications used in companies, government research labs,and higher education research.1. IntroductionComputational fluid dynamics (CFD) has been included as a senior-level Thermal-FluidsEngineering course in the curriculum of mechanical engineering program at many USuniversities.

Both small andlarge size companies need to have their employees educated in the skills of IPD for jobs of thefuture [2].The Committee on Science, Engineering and Public Policy has recommended that a broader,more flexible, cross-functional education be implemented for graduate scientists and engineers[5]. However, very few U.S. universities offer cross-functional courses that address integratedproduct development [6]. The major difficulty has been the faculty's lack of motivation, abilityand multi-disciplinary experience in teaching integrated courses [7]. MIT was one of the
