Thenew academic structure principally aims to prepare students for future challenges thatdemands skills/qualities such as adaptability, creativity, independent thinking and life-longlearning capabilities. It is expected that the combination of subjects offered, new teachingmethodologies and the assessment methods help students to develop those skills to becompetitive in the local and international job markets.The new senior secondary curriculum which is more diversified and broad, breaks the barrierof traditional arts and science streaming. The subjects suit different students’ interest,aptitudes, needs and abilities allowing them to reach their full potential. The new

The faculty workshop modelwas inspired by the work of Chase and Rowland9, notably the “Ponderosa Project” at NorthernArizona University and the “Piedmont Project” at Emory University (two early sustainability-across-the-curriculum faculty workshop groups; both, however, were campus-wide and did notstress sustainable engineering), and by the summer workshops of the Center for SustainableEngineering10.

This paper provides details about the integration of 3DP and CAD into the twosenior-level lab courses in an MSE curriculum, including lab activities and team design projects.The rationale, strategies and evolution of these changes are detailed along with lessons learned inthe development and implementation of these changes, examples, and a discussion of impact.Course Overview Materials Performance​is a fall semester, senior-level course

Emphasis on innovative thinking and interdisciplinaryapproach in problem solving are anticipated benefits of this effort. In addition, the study ofnew forms of deployable structures requires the development of skills in geometricconfiguration and kinematic simulation.
