However the literature on these courses is of limited relevance andprovides limited guidance. Although the courses described in this paper have aninterdisciplinary component, they are not really interdisciplinary. They teach structuralengineering skills and principals to non-engineering (ARCH and CM) students but do notcontain the content of multiple disciplines and do not function as interdisciplinary courses.Saliklis, et al describe the different curriculum approaches typically employed for architecturaland engineering programs8.

The projectis selected based on its ability to simulate industry team relationships as well as reinforcingcourse learning objectives. With MULC projects, students from each course rely on one anotherfor project deliverables, such as a highway design engineer would rely on a surveyor for landdata.The MULC project that was implemented utilized two courses: ETCE 2112 ConstructionSurveying and ETCE 4251 Highway Design and Construction.

Engineering Education, 2014 A Mature Approach to AssessmentAbstractEducators can tend to focus on teaching rather than student learning. As such, assessing studentoutcomes is perceived as additional work not directly related to their craft and is an occasionalexercise required to meet the demands of program accreditors. This attitude parallels that ofsoftware developers who see the need to deliver a software project on time and on budget assomething that constrains their creative work. The Capability Maturity Model has been adoptedby many software organizations as a framework to help change attitudes and improve thesoftware development process. In this paper we show that the same principles can be applied tothe assessment

In terms of the physical laboratory equipment requirements, the remote labs are verysimilar to hands-on labs. What makes them different from real labs is the distance between theexperiment and the experimenter. In real-labs, the equipment might be mediated

These projects, ideally involve a design / problemstatement, a fabrication step, and a testing or characterization stage.

This workshop focused only on writing titlesand abstracts in English.
