Overview of the Project1.1 BackgroundThe Sooner City project, supported by NSF (Action Agenda, NSF EEC 9872505), seeks toreform the traditional civil engineering curriculum by threading a comprehensive, integrated,infrastructure design project across the curriculum, beginning in the freshman year. Basically,freshmen are given a plat of undeveloped or partially developed land that, by the time theygraduate, is turned into a blueprint for Sooner City's infrastructure19. Among other things, theproject promotes five outcomes not fully addressed by traditional curricula, but which areemphasized by the NSF Engineering Education Coalitions and ABET 2000: team building

As aresult, engineering technology programs at the two- and four-year level have added controlcourses and laboratories to prepare the graduates for the systems awaiting them in industry.Building a controls laboratory that uses standard industrial control elements is costly anddemands allocation of a large laboratory area. Traditionally, process control laboratories inschools used large system trainers to teach the control of material level, flow, temperature, andpressure. While the performance of these systems is satisfactory, problems occur when theselarge systems are used in introductory control theory laboratories. The problems include:• The high trainer cost prohibits the purchase of multiple student stations.• The small
